Pulling an image from a DCS-2332L camera
« on: February 20, 2016, 06:32:50 AM »

I have several DCS-930L cameras which for the most part have been working just fine for several years.  However, I needed an outdoor camera so I purchased a DCS-2332L camera.  I've read the full manual and think I understand most of the options (lots more than with the 930!). 

However, I use this code in my web pages to "pull" a current image from a 930L - http://192.168.xx.yy:nnnn/image/jpeg.cgi.  I don't see anything in the DCS-2332L manual that discusses this as an option. 

Is it still there?  Or is there a "better" way to "pull" an current image from the camera for insertion into a web page?

Thanks....RDK

RYAT3....Yep, it worked, well almost.  It is asking for Id and password before it will allow an image to be pulled.

What do I have to do with  this camera to allow my code to pull an image without being hammered for an Id and password?

Thanks...RDK

Save/Store the password? 

Are you trying to make this link public?   Or is this just for you?

You might want to try one of the free apps in Google Playstore.  ipcamviewer light or something.

I need to embed the code into a web page which is open to all, ie public.  With the 930L it worked directly, but not with the 2332L.  I have tried the following command variations which I have found on the web for other cameras -- without success:

http://IPADDRESS/image/jpeg.cgi?user=[USERNAME]&password=[PASSWORD]
http://IPADDRESS/image/jpeg.cgi?user=USERNAME&password=PASSWORD
http://IPADDRESS/image/jpeg.cgi?user=’USERNAME’&password=’PASSWORD’
Http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@IPADDRESS/image/jpeg.cgi


Also with “dms.jpg” instead of the “image/jpeg.cgi

With the Http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@IPADDRESS/image/jpeg.cgi format, I'm not prompted for the ID and PW, but it also does not display the image :-(

Any ideas on how to make it work without prompting the web user for ID and PW?....RDK

As far as I know, and as far as anyone has found out here -- this has come up before -- there is no way to get a photo in the clear.  You have to authenticate first.

Are you trying that with ADMIN user/pass?  Or with guest list?

RYAT3...I did not use my admin credentials.  I created a id and pw: webuser and guesta.  For my testing.

So far I'm not terribly impressed with this camera, relative to my older 930L's.

I'm now fighting with FTP to send an image to my webserver.  E-mail works ok, but nothing I do seems to result in a "Test passed" for FTP.

As my 930L is working for FTP, II initially just copied the same settings into the 2332L dialogue.   I'm browsing several threads now, but so far nothing is working.....RDK
