Camera.
Overview
This section specifies the external HTTP based application programming interface. The
HTTP based camera interface provides the functionality to request a single image, to
control camera functions (PTZ, output relay etc.) and to get and set internal parameter
values. The image and CGI-requests are handled by the built in Web server.

Style Convention
In URL syntax and in descriptions of CGI parameters, a text in italic within angle
brackets denotes a content that is to be replaced with either a value or a string. When
replacing the text string also the angle brackets shall be replaced. An example of this
is the description of the name for the server, denoted with <servername> in the URL
syntax description below, that is replaced with the string myserver in the URL syntax
example, also below.
URL syntax' are written with the “Syntax:" word written in bold face followed by a box
with the referred syntax as seen below. The name of the server is written as
<servername>. This is intended to be replaced with the name of the actual server. This
can either be a name, e.g., "mywebcam" or "thecam.adomain.net" or the associated IP
number for the server, e.g., 192.168.0.220.
