The iSpykee LAN Controller can be started directly from the command-line. Usage: spykee [-p server] [-s snapshot_dir ] [-m motion_dir] [-i spykee_ip] username password botname bot_password Description: The iSpykee LAN Controller searches for Spykee robots on the local LAN and attaches to the first Spykee robot found on the LAN, similar to the way the standard Spykee Console does. It then establishes a connection to the iSpykee service and makes the Spykee robot available for remote control via iSpykee on a remote (Internet connected) iPhone/iPod-touch. The controller requires four arguments, as follows: username/pasword are those configured on your Spykee. These permit the software to login to your Spykee. Any username/password that you can use from the standard Spykee Console should work. botname/bot_password are a user-defined name and login password to be used when users connect from the iPhone/iPod-touch. The botname uniquely identifies this robot and the password provides access control. This is a way to avoid passing your actual Spykee username/password. You can use any botname and password of your choice as long as it's not in use. botname should be lower-case letters only (no digits or punctuation). Options: -p server iSpykee server to connect to. Reserved for development/testing. -s snapshot_dir specify the directory to use to save "snapshots". Default is "./Images" -m motion_dir specify the directory to use to save motion-detection images. Default is "./Motion" -i spykee_ip normally, the iSpykee LAN Controller will discover the IP address of an active Spykee robot on the LAN. You can override this behavior by specifying a specific IP address of the SPykee robot you want the controller to connect to Examples: spykee fred cccrt johnboy southpark In this example, the local Spykee username is "fred" and password "cccrt" (normal username/password that one uses with the standard Spykee Console). The Spykee will be identified by the iSpykee system as "johnboy" and will require users to enter the password "southpark" to connect from their iPhone. Snapshot images and motion-detection Images will be saved to the default locations. |
