Report for Status of camera within smart Client

We want to have feature within smart client where we can generate a report of up and down cameras or current status of camera to be generated in pdf or can be viewed directly on Smart Client.

Kindly revert us.

I think the best way is to use the methods shown in the StatusViewer sample. Please explore the sample.

Hi Anderson,

Thanks for your reply. I have gone through the status viewer and found somewhat useful, however we want the count of down cameras to be displayed at the bottom of the form. And i tried to modify the coding but not able to succeed.

Can you help us out.??Pls

Hi.

In the sample, you can see down camera’s name in grey-color and active camera’s in black-color. You need to tap into the status viewer sample and you will be able to count your down cameras.

Hi,

​

Agreed on your point which I have already shown to my client but as usual Client wants everything in a easy way. Client says that “instead of going through the grey colour or black colour I want ​simply put the count of down cameras at the bottom of the app.”

​

Can you suggest me a workaround where to modify the code where I can have the count. Actually I tried to write some coding for the same but was not successful.​

I added a label1 and made the following changes to StatusViewer sample..

private Dictionary<Guid, bool> _respondingCache = new Dictionary<Guid, bool>();
..
 
if (child.FQID.Kind != Kind.Folder && child.FQID.ObjectId!=child.FQID.Kind)
{
	if (_treeNodeCache.ContainsKey(id) == false)
		_treeNodeCache.Add(id, tn);
    if(child.FQID.Kind==Kind.Camera && _respondingCache.ContainsKey(id) == false) _respondingCache.Add(id, false); // line added
}
..
 
  listBoxChanges.Items.Insert(0, DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString() + ": " + tn.Text + " - " + state);
}
 
if (id != Guid.Empty && _respondingCache.ContainsKey(id)) // whole if{} is added
{
    if (state == "Enabled" || state == "Responding" || state == "Server Responding")
    {
        _respondingCache[id] = true;
    }
    else if (state == "Disabled" || state == "Not Responding" || state == "Server Not Responding")
    {
        _respondingCache[id] = false;
    }
    label1.Text = "responding cameras " + _respondingCache.Values.Where(x => x == true).Count().ToString() + " total cameras " + _respondingCache.Values.Count().ToString();
}
