ethernet network camera?

[theonlydarrenever]

hi, i am currently in university and one of our modules coursework is to design a program that will pick up the signal of an ethernet network camera and be able to view the camera's picture and control the pan etc of it.

the problem is, we've never used this program before and haven't been told how to work it. i was wondering if someone could help me out on where to start or how to get the program to pick up the signal.. ?

the camera is a sony network camera (snc-rz30p)

thanks,

darren

ps - sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forum!

Hi Darren,

First I would ask that you read the below links on info:

:headbang:

How to ask questions

How to use LAVA

Now proceed to further clarify your question.

What hardware/software/version/toolkits do you have?

Is it a GigE camera? Do you have IMAQ toolkit ? etc etc.

What have you tried so far?

People will be more than willing to help, if you do your bit first.

And I would add that you should post a VI (or VIs in a zip file) showing what you have already tried. If we see that initial effort, most Homework Hustlers (sorry, but that is your status at the moment) get help here.
