Connect(BSTR ip, BSTR login, BSTR password, BSTR arch_password, long param, long port) set up sets a connection to the Serverserver/Video Gate/Backup Archivevideo gate/backup archive.

• BSTR ip– —IP address of the Video server;.
• BSTR login – —login to connect to the Server server (can be blank);.
• BSTR password– —password to set up a connection to the Video server (can be blank);.

• BSTR arch_password – —password to access the archive (i.e. that is, admin password, can be blank);.

• long param – Server —server role. The parameter is mandatory.
  
  • 0 – 0—video server;.
  • 1 – backup 1—online archive;.

  • 2—video gate.2 – videogate;

• long port – —port to connect Video to server. 
  

  • if 0, 1, or 2 are passed, the connection is established with the port 900, 901, or 902, correspondingly;.

  • if 100 is passed, the connection is with to the port 10504;.

  • if any other value is passed, the connection is with the port number "port + 20000". For example, if port=900, the connection is established with server port 20900.

The connection to Server the server is set up asynchronously.

ShowCam

ShowCam(long cam_id, long compress, long show) shows/hides the camera on the monitor.

• long cam_id– —camera ID.
• long compress– —level of video compression 0-5 (for local camera =0). If set to -1, video stream is displayed directly from the camera without compression
• long show– —checkbox: show/hide camera (1/0)

...

DoReactMonitor(BSTR react_string) – control over the —control monitor/camerascamera behavior.

• BSTR react_string– —reaction string view

How to create react_string:

react_string = "MONITOR||ARCH_FRAME_TIME|cam<3>,date<dd-mm-yy>,time<hh:mm:ss>";

CamMonitor1->DoReactMonitor(react_string);

The result of calling the function with the this parameter:camera 3 will be in is switched to the archive mode, and the archive will be is positioned to date «dd"dd-mm-yy» yy" and time «hh"hh:mm:ss» ss" (date and time are to must be set in this format only).

The mode parameter takes can take the following values:

0 – 0—video gate if it's specified (otherwise, video server).

1 – 1—video server.

2 – long-time 2—backup archive.

“MONITOR|<id ignored>|ARCH_FRAME_TIME|...”

Example. Show 2nd the second stream from camera 14 on Monitor monitor 1:

"MONITOR|1|ADD_CAM|cam<14>,cam_id<14>,compress<1>,stream_id<14.2>"

Exapmle. Set fps FPS = 1 when viewing archive from Camera camera 11:

"MONITOR||CAM_PARAMS|cam<11>;arch_fps<1>"

Example. Get the coordinates of the fisheye camera 1 in the monitor (Monitor 1):

"MONITOR|1|GET_CAM_PARAMS|cam<1>"

RemoveAllCams

RemoveAllCams() : long– —remove all cameras from the monitor.

IsConnected

IsConnected() : boolean– —method shows if the Video video server is connected or disconnected.

GetCurIp

GetCurIp() : BSTR– —returns the IP address of Server the server specified when calling calling Connect.

SendRawMessage

SendRawMessage(BSTR msg) – sends —send the command to be executed to Video video server.

• BSTR msg– —command string view.

How to call a function:

m_Cam.SendRawMessage("CAM|1|REC");

...

m_Cam.SendRawMessage("CAM|1|DISARM");

Disconnect

Disconnect()– —disconnect from the Video video server. 

SetCallBackOptions

SetCallBackOptions(int cam_id, int options) – —sets parameters of getting to get video from camera.

• int cam_id – —camera ID (number).
• int options – —options. The possible values of the options parameter are:
• WithoutVideoFrame = 0x00 – —do not send frames from the video module.
• WithVideoFrame = 0x01 – —send frames from the video module.
• WithExtendedParams = 0x02 – get —get frames with extended parameters (time, fpsFPS, subtitlescaptions).
• WithInformationLayout = 0x04 – —display video in the window with control elements (context menu).
• WithCompressedData = 0x08 – —display video in the native original format without decompression (if any).
• WithoutDecode =
0x10 –
• 0x10—disable video decoding on the server.
• WithoutSubtitles=0x20
–
• —disable subtitles.

SetParam

SetParam(BSTR param_name, BSTR param_value) – —sets the number of camera windows in CamMonitor.

• BSTR param_name– a —a string representation of the length or width.
• BSTR param_value– the —the number of camera windows.

How to call a function:

m_cam.SetParam("monitor_ch", m_NH);
m_cam.SetParam("monitor_cw", m_NW);
