Getting Zonet ZVC7611W / ZVC7611 IP Cameras to work in ZoneMinder
Newegg had a sale on the Zonet ZVC7611W IP camera for $40 shipped. Since I’ve been looking for a replacement for a dead camera this seemed to fit the bill. The web UI for the Zonet camera is well painful to use I tried to get the image capture as quickly as I could into ZoneMinder. There isn’t any documentation on how to actually accomplish this. After some sleuthing and analysis of packet traces I figured out these cameras are electrically identical to Edimax (some French company) IP Cameras.
- Edimax IC-1520PDg = Zonet ZVC7611W
- Edimax IC-1520DP = Zonet ZVC7611
Their documentation sadly is about 1000% better than any documentation that Zonet gives or allows you to download. Full documentation is available from this pdf.
