  • 1.  HTTP command

    Posted 03-06-2017 18:19
    Hi EveryOne;

    I trie to send an HTTP command to recall a Panasonic PTZ preset. When i use http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cgi-bin/aw_ptz?cmd=%23R11&res=1, in a web broawser, it recall the preset number 12. I would like to create a custom pannel in Dashboard to recall preset. But when i use that link with ogscript, the & is convert is &amp and it doesn't work.

    Has anybody a solution ? Is it a way to keep the & ?

    This should do the trick (if the URL you provided works in a web browser). The "&" when looking at the raw XML is correct.

    <abs contexttype="opengear">
   <meta>
      <params>
         <param access="1" maxlength="0" name="IP" oid="params.ip" type="STRING" value="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" widget="default"/>
      </params>
   </meta>
   <param expand="true" height="47" left="19" oid="params.ip" top="18" widget="3" width="324"/>
   <button buttontype="push" height="56" left="349" name="Recall Preset 12" top="15" width="215">
      <task tasktype="ogscript">var url = 'http://' + params.getValue('params.ip', 0) + '/cgi-bin/aw_ptz?cmd=%23R11&amp;res=1';
ogscript.debug("SENDING " + url + " TO CAMERA");
ogscript.asyncPost(url, null, null);</task>
   </button>
</abs>

    James if you are still out there, you are a machine and a savior.  Thank you. - Dug through like 10 of your post to find this exact answer, and the step above worked like a charm.
