May I know how can I view camera through Comfort System?


- ident - 02-27-2007

The CWM (http://www.comfortforums.com/forum49/279.html )
or the Companion touchscreens (http://www.comfortforums.com/forum35/45.html) allow IP cameras like Axis to be viewed

You cannot view cameras using Comfort alone

There are possibilities to watch camera\'s using comfort, if output from camera\'s is controlled by using eg. RLY01 or RLY02 relaisboards.  The output can then be switched to a monitor, or time-lapse recorder etc...

I have a busch-wachter (PIR) on every side of the house (4), connected to a FINDER relay with 230Volt Coil, and 4 separate NC or NO contacts ...

1st contact for switching lights directly from the PIR

2nd contact for switching the Time-Lapse Recorder

3rd contact for switching the camera

4rd contact for switching an input of comfort to CLOSED state.

 

But, as said (and referred to in the manuals), this is a relais solution, by which you can view the source on a 3rd party device.  Comfort is only involved for switching which camera you want to view !

 

Kind regards,

 

Bart

Thanks Bart. Just related to this - There is a 4 camera switching application in the Application Manual on www.cytech.biz  - it was written in the pre Comfigurator days.
