This requires a [Foscam IP Camera](/components/camera.foscam/) camera with PTZ (Pan, Tilt, Zoom) and CGI functionality ([Source](http://www.ipcamcontrol.net/files/Foscam%20IPCamera%20CGI%20User%20Guide-V1.0.4.pdf))
|
||||
|
||||
Foscam Cameras can be controlled by Home Assistant through a number of CGI commands.
|
||||
The following outlines examples of the switch, services, and scripts required to move between 2 preset destinations while controlling motion detection, but many other options of movement are provided in the Foscam CGI User Guide linked above.
|
||||
|
||||
The `switch.foscam_motion` will control whether the motion detection is on or off. This switch supports `statecmd`, which checks the current state of motion detection.
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Replace admin and password with an "Admin" priviledged Foscam user
|
||||
# Replace ipaddress with the local IP address of your Foscam
|
||||
switch:
|
||||
platform: command_line
|
||||
switches:
|
||||
#Switch for Foscam Motion Detection
|
||||
foscam_motion:
|
||||
oncmd: 'curl -k "https://ipaddress:443/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=setMotionDetectConfig&isEnable=1&usr=admin&pwd=password"'
|
||||
offcmd: 'curl -k "https://ipaddress:443/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=setMotionDetectConfig&isEnable=0&usr=admin&pwd=password"'
|
||||
statecmd: 'curl -k --silent "https://ipaddress:443/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=getMotionDetectConfig&usr=admin&pwd=password" | grep -oP "(?<=isEnable>).*?(?=</isEnable>)"'
|
||||
value_template: '{{ value == "1" }}'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The service `shell_command.foscam_turn_off` sets the camera to point down and away to indicate it is not recording, and `shell_command.foscam_turn_on` sets the camera to point where I'd like to record. h of these services require preset points to be added to your camera. See source above for additional information.
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
shell_command:
|
||||
#Created a preset point in Foscam Web Interface named Off which essentially points the camera down and away
|
||||
foscam_turn_off: 'curl -k "https://ipaddress:443/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=ptzGotoPresetPoint&name=Off&usr=admin&pwd=password"'
|
||||
#Created a preset point in Foscam Web Interface named Main which points in the direction I would like to record
|
||||
foscam_turn_on: 'curl -k "https://ipaddress:443/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=ptzGotoPresetPoint&name=Main&usr=admin&pwd=password"'
|
||||
```
|
||||
The `script.foscam_off` and `script.foscam_on` can be used to set the motion detection appropriately, and then move the camera. These scripts can be called as part of an automation with `device_tracker` triggers to set `home` and `not_home` modes for your Foscam and disable motion detection recording while `home`.
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
script:
|
||||
foscam_off:
|
||||
sequence:
|
||||
- execute_service: switch.turn_off
|
||||
service_data:
|
||||
entity_id: switch.foscam_motion
|
||||
- service: shell_command.foscam_turn_off
|
||||
foscam_on:
|
||||
sequence:
|
||||
- execute_service: switch.turn_off
|
||||
service_data:
|
||||
entity_id: switch.foscam_motion
|
||||
- service: shell_command.foscam_turn_on
|
||||
- execute_service: switch.turn_on
|
||||
service_data:
|
||||
entity_id: switch.foscam_motion
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To automate Foscam being set to "on" (facing the correct way with motion sensor on), I used the following simple automation:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
automation:
|
||||
- alias: Set Foscam to Away Mode when I leave home
|
||||
trigger:
|
||||
platform: state
|
||||
entity_id: group.family
|
||||
from: 'home'
|
||||
action:
|
||||
service: script.foscam_on
|
||||
- alias: Set Foscam to Home Mode when I arrive Home
|
||||
trigger:
|
||||
platform: state
|
||||
entity_id: group.family
|
||||
to: 'home'
|
||||
action:
|
||||
service: script.foscam_off
