Users / Re: Security mode not working properly !

« on: March 27, 2008, 09:42:44 am »

In order to send security events directly to the motion camera, and to get a picture from it, you'll have to relate the motion camera to itself in the Device_Device_Related table.
By ex:
 Le's say that your MotionCameraID is 77, you'll have to add this as FK_Device and FK_Device_Related in the Device_Device_Related table.

>mysql -u root
>use pluto_main
>INSERT INTO Device_Device_Related (FK_Device, FK_Device_Related) VALUES ($MotionCameraID, $MotionCameraID);

In your case you'll have to substitute the $MotionCameraID variable with you MotionCameraID = Device ID - from Web Admin

You can use your MD as a Fiire Station only if you bought it from www.fiire.com , because it uses licensed video/audio drivers.
Also you'll need to copy your Fiire Images from the DVD provided by Fiire, if you have your own Core.

For the shares to be auto detected you must connect the PC with shared on the Internal Network of the LMCE Core.
The PC must have dhcp enabled.
Check in Web Admin -> Advanced -> Configuration -> Unknown Devices if the PC mac address is there, then unlock it and do a Quick Reload Router

1. The CE Orbiter is for XScale, Intel x86 tablet PCs, that use Windows CE.NET.
2. Your PDA uses Windows Mobile 5. The application for your PDA is sent by bluetooth.
  First you should remove your PDA from Web Admin: Advanced -> Configuration -> Devices click on it and from the right frame click Delete this Device, then from the list of Orbiters , or from the Advanced -> Configuration -> Unknown Devices page if you ignored the phone. Then Reload the router.
   
 ---------How to Add your Windows Mobile phone/pda------------
 
Step1: Connect the  Bluetooth dongle to the LMCE Core PC.
Step2: Start the bluetooth on your phone/pda and make it discoverable/visible for other devices.
Step3: Wait a few minutes for it to be discovered by LMCE, if it isn't do a Quick Reload Router.
Step4: After LMCE detect its enter the Pass Key: 1234 and accept the Orbiter.cab file.
Step5: Select the default room and user that will use this phone/pda.
Step6: After the file is fully downloaded on your phone/pda open File Explorer, go to the file ( Orbiter.cab), generally it's downloaded in the root directory. Install the file by clicking on it.
Step7: Quick Reload the router.
Step8: Go to Start -> Programs and run the Pluto Orbiter application.

Note: 1.Depending of your pda/phone you should maximize the program memory and stop the running programs that you don't use. ( start -> Settings -> System -> Memory )
         2.If you want to hurry up the detection process you can run as root from the console: hcitool scan and hcitool inq
         3.The same procedure its for the Symbian 6.0 series Mobile Phones.

How To Change eth1 to eht0 or vice versa:

Step1: Open A console (CTRL+ALT+F2), login with your username and password, get root by typing: sudo su - and your password when asked.
Step2: type at the console nano /etc/iftab
Here you will see this:

# This file assigns persistent names to network interfaces.
# See iftab(5) for syntax.

eth0 mac 00:0e:2e:84:d8:37 arp 1
eth1 mac 00:14:2a:f8:52:ad arp 1

just put eth1 instead of eth0 and vice versa just like this:

# This file assigns persistent names to network interfaces.
# See iftab(5) for syntax.

eth1 mac 00:0e:2e:84:d8:37 arp 1
eth0 mac 00:14:2a:f8:52:ad arp 1

Step3: Save&Close the file ( CTRL+O, CTRL+X)
Step4: Reboot the PC

Now the former eth1 card will be eth0 and eth0 will be eth1.
