Title: DCS-5230 On/Off Buttom +++
Post by: theshurikn on August 05, 2011, 02:31:50 AM
Hi everybody,

I speak/write not very well english, I'm Swiss (french), so excuse me in advance :) !
I'm new here, I have buy a Camera IP, the DCS-5230 and I have two question...

1. It's possible to have a button "ON/OFF" (not mechanical but software), frome Iphone or computer? I would like to start record only I leave my house... and turn off where I come back...
The Schedule Option record at all the time and not on the motion detection only.

2. I can't access from the web, only on LAN. I have activate this option: "Enable UPnP port forwarding" on network settings and I have defined a port for http access (different to 80, because I have a server web on my Nas). On my routeur I have forward this port.
My routeur support them, many service are ok with forward port.

Thanks in advance and have a nice day:)

So the problem 2 is resolved. I have forward the port extern to the 80 with the IP static of my Webcam.

"External HTTP port" on "Enable UPnP port forwarding" setting is not necessary for this.
