    Send http request if alarm [Dahua IPC-HFW5442E-ZE]

    Hi all, I added some more functionalities (e.g. send a message via pushover) and have an example how to read the mail content and trigger different actions based on the alarm name. Have fun! https://github.com/git-improver/Local-Mail-To-Request

    Send http request if alarm [Dahua IPC-HFW5442E-ZE]

    Weird, it works for me. I will install my camera next week and try to run some alarms and see if an error occurs and share my log with you. What are the settings in your camera?

    Send http request if alarm [Dahua IPC-HFW5442E-ZE]

    Hi again, thanks @MyDaHua again. It was a problem with TLS which the camera did not accept as it was not implemented by me. I added it and it now works. You can receive the whole message + attributes and process it as you want. As I have not installed the camera yet and to save some time on...

    Yes, you are right. At the moment, it is a disadvantage. Nevertheless I am sure that it can be fixed. The problem is that the camera performs a quit before transferring the message. I do not know why and I did not find a solution so far to debug into the camera or to see a log/error message. The...

    How to fix Ethernet Cable on Dahua Cam [IPC HFW-5442E-ZE]?

    Hi guys, please excuse as it might sound like a very primitive question. How do you mount the Ethernet Cable on your cams? The delivered adapter to get it water-protected seems much to small to my mind. So: Do you use it? If yes how? If no, do you do anything else to keep it waterproof (e.g...

    SMTP Server is the IP of my Raspberry, Port as Set in the Python Script (cont = Controller(MyMessageHandler(), hostname='', port=8025). The Rest is just any dummy data, any mail will be handled by the Raspberry. If your mail works right, you will receive the information in Python and can handle...

    Send http request if alarm [Dahua IPC-HFW5442E-ZE]

    Hi everyone, unfortunately I do not have a NVR or BI, I just have a NAS to store it on. The logic stays and should stay in my case on the cameras itself. @MyDaHua I did not manage to get postfix running. However, I found a much easier way if you use python anyways. One script including the...

    Send http request if alarm [Dahua IPC-HFW5442E-ZE]

    I checked your Git Repository and it looks like an excellent idea. However, I am not sure how to config postfix. If I understand it right, it will only run as a local mail server. Do you have a manual for that?

    Send http request if alarm [Dahua IPC-HFW5442E-ZE]

    Okay, I did not expect that at all - thank you, I will give it a try. However a web request would still be my ideal solution :)

    Send http request if alarm [Dahua IPC-HFW5442E-ZE]

    Thanks @MyDaHua . However this is too slow for my use case. For example, I want to switch the light in the driveway on (use it as a motion detector). The mail will take some seconds and the lag will be to large.

    Send http request if alarm [Dahua IPC-HFW5442E-ZE]

    Hi guys, I was wondering whether it is possible to automatically send an web request, if a motion was detected in the camera. I only have a LAN cable available (no extra cable for alarm out) and I would like to use the alarm to control my smart home system. What I found out so far: I can use...
