hello,
I use foscam via Panasonic driver with UI4 on my vera2.
It is possible to control green led usage with a Url call.
3 modes can be setup for green led. :
http://ip/set_misc.cgi?led_mode=0 Led indicates network connection
http://ip/set_misc.cgi?led_mode=1 Led indicates connected network type
http://ip/set_misc.cgi?led_mode=2, led desactivated except during camera boot
I’d like to setup mode 2 during web usage of CAM and to setup mode 0 or 1 when Cam is not used ?.
So is there possible to call Urls from inside the cam driver (similar to what is done to activate a light when cam is used)

Thanks, !! but I have not the solution for led switching …
Hello,
is it possible to built a device which would be similar to a light switch one and which would send
http://ip/set_misc.cgi?led_mode=0 ( Led indicates network connection) when switched on ON STATE
http://ip/set_misc.cgi?led_mode=2 ( led desactivated except during camera boot) when switched on OFF STATE
if such a device can be built I could declare it in the list of lights to be activated when using the fosc

Yes, of course it is possible to implement new devices.
Information about plugins is at:

The official plugin repository is at:
The code of the EtherRain8 Sprinkler Controller plugin might be a good start to look at:

Hello,
Thanks, I am going to try to do it…

While you are at it, you could add support for the motion sensors and the additional binary switch that come with the Foscam. 
Vera supports the concept of composite devices: a parent device with several children
A good example for a composite device is the Weather plugin:
http://code.mios.com/trac/mios_weather
For the Foscam, a complete device driver should implement:
[ul][li]Pan, Tilt, Patrol[/li]
[li]Motion Sensor 1 (motion alarm) – /get_status.cgi: alarm_status: 0: no alarm; 1: motion alarm; 2: input alarm[/li]
[li]Motion Sensor 2 (input alarm) – /get_status.cgi: alarm_status: 0: no alarm; 1: motion alarm; 2: input alarm[/li]
[li]BinarySwitch (IO output high/low) – /decoder_control.cgi?command: 94: IO output high; 95: IO output low[/li]
[li]BinarySwitch (blinking green LED on/off) – /set_misc.cgi?led_mode: 0: Mode 1; 1: Mode 2; 2: Turn off lights[/li]
[li]BinarySwitch (IR LEDs on/off) – AFAIK not supported by current Foscam firmware[/li][/ul]
