Has anyone had any luck using the API codes to go from day or night with the SD49225/SD49425 PTZ?

The day/night utility someone wrote here doesn't seem to work for this PTZ and I have tried various versions I have seen others use on other Dahua cams but no luck:

/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoInDayNight[0][0].Mode=BlackWhite

/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=2

/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=1

/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=3

/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoInOptions[0].NightOptions.SwitchMode=3

/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoInOptions[0].NightOptions.SwitchMode=2

/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoInOptions[0].NightOptions.SwitchMode=3


I am also wondering if the username: password@IPADDRESS configuration is also the culprit because when I try that, I get a Windows cannot find error. I even tried the anonymous login checkbox, but no dice.

Yeah, I have mine there, but I like more customization LOL. I would like to force color until about 1:30am or so and then zoom in closer to a pinch point and go to B/W for a sharper image. The Profile management will not give you that option to force B/W or even night profile from 2am to 6am.

Use curl and start with "getConfig" on command line, change settings in webgui and see what have changed using "getConfig" again.

Code: 
curl --digest "http://admin:yourpassword@x.x.x.x/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=getConfig&name=VideoInMode"
Typically returns:

Full time Day:
table.VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=0
table.VideoInMode[0].Mode=0

Full Time Night:
table.VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=1
table.VideoInMode[0].Mode=0

General:
table.VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=2
table.VideoInMode[0].Mode=0

Schedule:
table.VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=0
table.VideoInMode[0].Config[1]=1
table.VideoInMode[0].Mode=1
table.VideoInMode[0].TimeSection[0][0]=1 04:40:00-18:12:00

Set Full Time Night:
Code: 
curl --digest "http://admin:yourpassword@x.x.x.x/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=1"

I did the get config and got a lot similar to what you show.

I then try to run the set curl (curl --digest "") and get this error message:

(3) [globbing] bad range in column 100

When I count this out, I am assuming this is the setConfig line, yet everything looks right?


Here is what it returned when I ran the get curl:

curl --digest ""

table.VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=1

table.VideoInMode[0].Mode=0

ah, Windows curl does not like [] , try:

Code: 
curl --digest --globoff "http://admin:yourpassword@x.x.x.x/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoInMode[0].Config[0]=1"

Strange, so it seems to accept it, but it doesn't say it did anything and it immediately goes to the c: prompt to accept another demand, and the camera didn't change?

Normally you'll get back an "OK" after setconfig and camera changes immediately to night profile.

Any idea what the API is for lens initialization?

I ran the get command (/cgi-bin/devVideoInput.cgi?action=getCaps&channel=1) and got the following but nothing stands out to me as to which one it is? Or maybe a different get command?

What is meant by "lens initialization"? All zoom or focus options seem to be linked to ptz control: /cgi-bin/ptz.cgi?action=getCurrentProtocolCaps&channel=0

@chaosengine - Lens Initialization readjusts the lens to help with focus issues. It seems like this PTZ gets "caught" and this features exercises the lens from near focus to far focus and then settles on the proper focus. So I would like to run an API to do this when it changes from day to night.
