Motorola Camera's

i havent updated the firmware on my camera yet… i was worried about that.

I can update the code if I could find the command! They must of changed them or dropped them with the newer firmwares. :frowning:

Is this device handler still working? Thinking of getting one if these baby monitors which I believe includes the focus85 but still investigating on that one

Does this support Motorola MBP855CONNECT

or Motorola MBP88CONNECT

or MBP854CONNECT

What value would I put for the model of these?

I have the Motorola MBP855CONNECT (same camera as Motorola MBP88CONNECT). Like others I was able to get the melodies to work and to Pan and Tilt, but no picture and no wifi/temp info.

I can also see that if I do
http://IPADDRESS/image.cgi I get a 240p image (FYI, it does not matter what I put in front of image.cgi, I will get an image, ie http://IPADDRESS/somrandomwords/somerandomfolder/image.cgi?somerandomeparams=true still returns an image)

http://IPADDRESS/action=command&command=value_temperature returns temperature
http://IPADDRESS/action=command&command=get_wifi_strength returns wifi strength

So this tells me that those functions can still be accessed from the camera. The code just needs to implement it correctly?

Also in the code it says to enter the IP address in HEX, but this is no longer the case and does not work if you enter the IP in hex. Entering just the normal IP address (without port info) seems to work with melodies and PTZ.

For anyone struggling with this, the problem is 2 fold;

  1. Smartthings don’t really want you to use the IP:Port HEX method any more, they prefer MAC
  2. The method to capture images from devices had changed in the Smartthings API

I have updated the code and it’s working for me now, see my fork here;

Note it is important that the Device Network ID (set in the SmartThings IDE/API webpage) is the MAC address of the camera with no colon’s in it, e.g. 000AE2179230
