Collect data remotely from Senstar People Counter

You can use Wget and HTTP requests to collect counter data from the Senstar People Counter.

wget http://camera_ip/local/VE170/rep.csv?query

Where camera_ip is the IP address of the camera and query is the list of parameters that define the time from which to collect counter data.

The query follows the standard rules for HTTP queries and supports the following fields:

  • StartYear
  • EndYear
  • StartMonth
  • EndMonth
  • StartDay
  • EndDay
  • StartHour
  • EndHour
  • DetailLevel

All date and time field values are inclusive. For example, StartDay=2&EndDay=4 includes days 2, 3, and 4. The month field values use 1 to 12 (January =1, February =2, ..., and December =12). The hour field values use 0 to 23 (12 AM = 0, 1 AM = 1, ..., and 11 PM = 23).

The DetailLevel field values use the following values:

  • S - The detail level is minutes
  • H - The detail level is hours
  • D - The detail level is days
  • M - The detail level is months
  • Y - The detail level is years
