Ratings and FAQs

Thank you for your rating!

1
Question:
Could the extension provide status information for dedicated devices on request?
Answer:
This is an open feature request for further releases. Please get in contact if this feature is needed urgently.
1
Question:
Does the extension provides any status information about the devices continuously?
Answer:
The extension just communicate with the devices just only, when a CTRL script triggers the given methods. It's not a driver with automatic status tracking (like a VMS as WinCC OA VIDEO does).
1
Question:
Does the AddOn supports the streaming of video data?
Answer:
The extension just helps to gather any information needed to receive streams from a camera. The streaming has to be done separately (e.g. by a VMS as WinCC OA VIDEO).
1
Question:
Is the discovery truth worthy to detect any device during several discovery runs?
Answer:
Especially with a high number of devices it's not truth worthy to get a response from any devices by several discovery runs.
1
Question:
Does the discovery works reliable with a large number of cameras (e.g. 1000 cameras and more)?
Answer:
ONVIF Discovery bases on the WS-Discovery specification. As an UDP based multicast network protocoll, it's not reliable to discover all devices during any discovery.
1
Question:
Is there a limit of cameras to be discovered?
Answer:
Theoretically there is no limitation for the list of cameras to be discovered by the extension, the discovery works only within a broadcast segment of your network.
