### {% linkable_title Control Foscam PTZ (Pan/Tilt/Zoom) - Home/Away %}
Foscam Webcams which support CGI Commands ([Source](http://www.ipcamcontrol.net/files/Foscam%20IPCamera%20CGI%20User%20Guide-V1.0.4.pdf)) can be controlled by Home Assistant. 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.
The service shell_command.foscam_turn_off sets the camera to point down and away to indicate it is not recording.
The service shell_command.foscam_turn_on sets the camera to point where I'd like to record.
Both of these services require preset points to be added to your camera. See source above for additional information.
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
# 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" }}'
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"'
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:

- service: shell_command.foscam_turn_on

Foscam Webcams which support CGI Commands can be controlled by Home Assistant ([Source](http://www.ipcamcontrol.net/files/Foscam%20IPCamera%20CGI%20User%20Guide-V1.0.4.pdf)). For an example of how this can be done, see the [Foscam IP Camera Pan, Tilt, Zoom Control](/cookbook/foscam_away_mode_PTZ/) Cookbook entry.
