Controlar cámara D-Link DSL-5222L con ZoneMinder

  • 2 Mayo 2016
  • video surveillance

Si están buscando la mejor manera de deshacerse de una buena cantidad de dinero en el modo más inútil, les aconsejo vivamente comprar una cámara D-Link DSC-5222L. No tiene nada de nuevo. Una calidad bastante triste. Lenta. Para compensar toda esta la depresión y no sentirnos tan solos en el mundo de los estafados existe un remedio: ZoneMinder.

ZoneMinder es una solución open source que tal vez no sea la más completa de todas, pero es muy simple de instalar, configurar y utilizar. Hoy, no vamos a explicar nada de esto, que tan bien explicado está en los manuales de ZoneMinder.

Objetivo

Comfigurar y agregar una cámara D-Link DSC-5222L a ZoneMinder y poder comandarla desde la interfáz web.

Configurar la cámara

Con la cámara viene un antiguo CD con el software que configura todo con dos clicks. Claro, es necesario tener un lector y Windows (y un mouse para hacer los clicks). Si nos falta una de estas cosas, podemos simplemente conectarnos a la cámara a través de la dirección IP 192.168.0.20 e ingresar con el usuario admin sin contraseña.

Una vez dentro, configurar los siguientes puntos:

  • Setup → Network setup → LAN Settings
    • DHCP o IP estático
  • Setup → Wireless setup
    • Configurar la red wi-fi
  • Setup → Audio and Video → VIDEO PROFILE 1
    • Mode: JPEG
    • Frame size: 1280x720
    • Maximum frame rate: 25
    • Video quality: Excelent
  • Maintenance
    • Cambiar contraseña admin

Agregar la cámara a ZoneMinder

Entrar a la web de ZoneMinder e ingresar a add new monitor. Por ahora, configurar los siguientes parámetros:

General

  • Name: Casa
  • Server: None
  • Source Type: Remote

Source

  • Remote Protocol: HTTP
  • Remote Method: Simple
  • Remote Host Name: admin:password@ip_camara
  • Remote Host Port: 80 (o el que se haya configurado en la cámara)
  • Remote Host Path: /video/mjpg.cgi?profileid=1

Una vez configurados estos parámetros, ya deberíamos poder acceder al video de la D-Link. Si así no fuera, probar los parámetros remote host name y path en un browser para estar seguros de que el canal de video sea accesible.

Controlar la cámara con ZoneMinder

Lamentablemente, ZoneMinder no entenderá como controlar este modelo de cámara. Sí otras que son mejores, pero esta no. Para controlar la DSC-5222L será necesario primero cargar un script que le permitirá a ZoneMinder "conocer" los controles de la cámara.

En mi caso, ZoneMinder está instalado en un CentOS. La ubicación de los archivos puede cambiar de distribución a distribución. Para encontrar la que corresponde en nuestra instalación, podemos ejecutar:

find / -name "PanasonicIP.pm"

En el caso de CentOS, la ubicación es: /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/ZoneMinder/Control. Dentro este directorio creamos el archivo DCS_5222LB.pm
