[. . . ] Five(5) images before and two(2) images after the buffer is stopped, are saved. bufferd -start -buffername ALARM -uri ftp://axis-cgi/jpg/1/halfsize. jpg -pre 5 -post 2 -postdelay 2000 This example shows how to stop the buffer started above. bufferd -stop -buffername ALARM This example resets (i. e. stops buffering and clears the directory) the buffer specified in the last example. bufferd -reset -buffername ALARM Let's say a method of buffering images is required, and when an arbitrary event occurs, read alarm; the images taken will be handled and the buffering should thereafter continue. The following example illustrates the steps to take (using the examples above): Axis Communications AB does not provide support for application development of any kind.

Revision 0. 91 June 2001 24 Appendix A ­ Included Application bufferd -start -buffername ALARM -uri ftp://axis-cgi/jpg/1/halfsize. jpg -pre 5 -post 2 -postdelay 2000 (This starts the buffer and can be specified in a start-up script or as an event for utask) When an event occurs, as specified for utask (see below) the following command sequence is used to handle the buffer: bufferd -stop ALARM { handle images} bufferd -reset ALARM bufferd -start -buffername ALARM -uri ftp://axis-cgi/jpg/1/halfsize. jpg -pre 5 -post 2 -postdelay 2000 The handling of the images can for instance be done with the PHP3-function 'ftp()' below (see also /usr/php/template_upload_cont. php3 on the device). 5. 4 The PHP-libs Included in the distributed firmware are a few PHP3-scripts that define functions, which are intended to help developers use the camera's functionality. These scripts are located in the directory /usr/php. Currently the included files are: /usr/php/alert. lib /usr/php/ftp. lib /usr/php/log. lib /usr/php/mail. lib /usr/php/ppp. lib In order to use these functions the files need to be included in the script using them. The arguments used in the function-calls are also required to be defined/declared in the calling script. 5. 4. 1 alert. lib This script implements a function that connects to a host and leaves a message. This function requires an application be running on the contacted host that can handle the alert. Axis Communications AB does not provide support for application development of any kind.

Revision 0. 91 June 2001 25 Appendix A ­ Included Application function alert($host, $protocol, $port, $message) { . . . } $host $protocol $port $message (not null) The host-name or address to send the alert to. Specify the protocol (0 = TCP, 1 = UDP). Default is '0' The port to connect to. Default is '15' the message to be sent (ASCII) The timeout for a connection-attempt is 60 seconds. On error the function returns '1' (connection failed), '2' (a parameter was missing) or '$SOCK_CONNECT_FAILED'. If the connection failed this is logged in the syslog. 5. 4. 2 ftp. lib This function has encapsulated the built-in PHP3-functions for FTP. function ftp($host, $user, $pass, $time, $delay, $source, $des tination, $suffix, $countermax, $startcount, $port, $passive_mode) { . . . } $host $user $password $time $delay (not null) FTP Host-name (not null) User-name (not null) Password transfer period in seconds (time < 0 is infinite (i. e.
