I have an issue that I can not set the IP on a specific camera - I only get the nodemap from the first device event though I use the DeviceUpdateList-command.
I want to set the IP-address to 192.168.20.51 to the camera that I found with my connection_id.
I found the camera as the 2nd camera in the deviceList. I try to do what is shown in how-to-set-a-the-ip-address-of-gev-camera-programmatically-in-cvb but something is not working as expected for me, and the IP is set on the first camera in the deviceList.
Here is my code:
logger->info("Found devices:");
for (auto &deviceInfo : deviceList)
{
PrintDeviceInfo(deviceInfo, logger);
}
logger->info("{} available devices to connect to", deviceList.size());
for (auto t : deviceList)
{
auto selectedCamera = SelectDevice(t, connection_id, logger);
if (selectedCamera != nullptr)
{
logger->info("Camera found using {}: ", MimerUtils::ToString(t));
PrintDeviceInfo(*selectedCamera, logger);
std::string deviceMAC, deviceIP, nicIP;
selectedCamera->TryGetProperty(Cvb::DiscoveryProperties::DeviceMac, deviceMAC);
selectedCamera->TryGetProperty(Cvb::DiscoveryProperties::DeviceIP, deviceIP);
selectedCamera->TryGetProperty(Cvb::DiscoveryProperties::InterfaceSubNetList, nicIP);
fixMACAddress(deviceMAC);
fixNICIP(nicIP);
int a = 0, b = 0, c = 0, d = 0;
sscanf(nicIP.c_str(), "%d.%d.%d.%d", &a, &b, &c, &d);
char tmp[17];
d = (d + auto_set_ip) & 0xFF; //New IP is same as nic with last part offsetted
sprintf(tmp, "%d.%d.%d.%d", a, b, c, d);
std::string ip_str(tmp);
logger->info(" Configuration is requesting that device shall have IP {}", ip_str);
logger->info(" DeviceMac: {}", deviceMAC);
logger->info(" Trying to set camera IP to: {}", ip_str);
auto access_token = selectedCamera->AccessToken();
auto device = Cvb::DeviceFactory::Open(access_token);
auto nodemap = device->NodeMap("TLInterface");
// get all required nodes
auto deviceUpdateListNode = nodemap->Node<Cvb::CommandNode>("DeviceUpdateList");
// make node map aware of the device
deviceUpdateListNode->Execute();
auto deviceIDNode = nodemap->Node<Cvb::StringNode>("DeviceID");
auto deviceMacNode = nodemap->Node<Cvb::IntegerNode>("DeviceMAC");
auto cfgIPNode = nodemap->Node<Cvb::IntegerNode>("Cust::IPCfg_IP");
auto cfgSubnetNode = nodemap->Node<Cvb::IntegerNode>("Cust::IPCfg_Subnet");
auto cfgMacNode = nodemap->Node<Cvb::IntegerNode>("Cust::IPCfg_MAC");
auto cfgForceNode = nodemap->Node<Cvb::CommandNode>("Cust::IPCfg_SetForceIP");
auto cfgStaticNode = nodemap->Node<Cvb::CommandNode>("Cust::IPCfg_SetStatIP");
//Diagnostic printout
{
auto mac_verification = deviceMacNode->Value();
auto mac_str = macToString(mac_verification);
std::cerr << deviceIDNode->Value() << " " << mac_str << std::endl;
}
{
auto mac2 = device->NodeMap("Device")->Node<Cvb::IntegerNode>("Std::GevMACAddress")->Value();
auto mac_str = macToString(mac2);
std::cerr << mac_str << std::endl;
}
// we want to configure the found device
cfgMacNode->SetValue(deviceMacNode->Value());
// IP 10.0.0.1 (given that your NIC has a suitable address like 10.0.0.2)
uint32_t ipInt = (a << 24) + (b << 16) + (c << 8) + d;
//auto str = ipToString(ipInt);
cfgIPNode->SetValue(ipInt);
// Subnet 255.255.255.0
cfgSubnetNode->SetValue(0xFFFFFF00);
// // Force the new IP
cfgForceNode->Execute();
// // // make node map aware of new IP
deviceUpdateListNode->Execute();
// // // permanently write the IP to the camera
cfgStaticNode->Execute();
}
}
and the relevant output of the code:

The thing that tells me that something is malfunctioning are the two last lines in the output that I added for diagnostics.
The deviceIDNode->Value() and mac_str matches the first camera in my deviceList and not the camera that is in “device”.
The device->NodeMap(“Device”)->NodeCvb::IntergerNode(“GevMACAddress”)->Value is the correct one.
It works fine to stream images from the “device” correctly so I reckon I must do most of the things the right way.
