Introduction

Moxa IVN (Industrial Video Networking) solutions, which include VPort series Video Servers and SoftDVR^TM IP Surveillance Software, are future-proof, ready-to-use video-over-IP solutions for video surveillance applications. With the growing popularity of IP networks, more and more users need to integrate their video management system with other monitoring and control systems (e.g., SCADA or HMI) to get the benefits of centralization and inter-operation. To assist third-party developers with this intergration, we are providing Moxa VPort SDK PLUS to build customized video management systems, or to integrate VPort series products (including VPort 25/254/351/251 series) into comprehensive monitoring and control systems.

Features and Benefits

URL Commands

URL Commands are easy-to-use CGI commands used with HTML programming for web systems. Users can acquire video images and control VPort series products from their own customized web pages by embedding these CGI commands into the HTML source code. All of the URL Commands are listed in the VPort CGI command manual.

ActiveX Control SDK PLUS

ActiveX Control is an OCX component, which uses Microsoft COM (Component Object Model) technology to enable software components to communicate. ActiveX Control is used widely with platforms that support WIN32, IE Plug-in, and Visual Basic, and is also popular in automation system software, such as SCADA. MOXA ActiveX Control SDK is a user-friendly, customized tool for programmers that support versatile parameters for customized viewing, recording, PTZ camera control, event triggering, and recorded video playback. MOXA ActiveX Control SDK is provided free of charge, and supports VB, VC, and C# development environments, as well as plug-ins for web applications and automation tools (e.g., SCADA software).

For some video management applications, the ActiveX control SDK may not provide users with enough functionality. In this case, users can use the API SDK, which includes a detailed C library, to program their own customized solutions in a Visual C++ or C# environment. The API SDK includes a total of 4 DLL modules. For the time being, the API SDK supports the WIN32 platforms. API SDK is also provided free of charge. However, since the API SDK uses proprietary technology and the programmer must be an experienced, professional C programmer, we are not releasing the API SDK publicly. Third-party developers who would like to use API SDK should contact a Moxa sales representative to apply for a free copy. Some verification is required.
