WANSCAM fr4020a2 on VeraEdge

I struggled to get a Wanscam fr4020a2 working with VeraEdge. I bought the camera a long time ago and after several attempts got it working today, so thought it worthwhile making a post on the topic.

Looking at the settings on the camera, its says the Device ID is 0009FB007381, Device Firmware Version 0.35.2.46 & Device Embeded Web UI Version is 0.9.4.12

It is configured by default to use port http port 99, but this can be changed to the more usual 8090 if required.

So to get it working with the VeraEdge:

  1. Go through a manual (advanced) install for a generic IP camera, selecting “other IP Camera” and enter a device name, the IP with port number along with the username and password and assign to a room.
  2. This will at least give you a non-working device to configure further. Click on this device and its settings, check the basics are correct, then click on Advanced Settings.
  3. Ensure you have in Params:
    • The correct ip and port e.g. 192.168.0.17:99
    • The correct username and password
  4. Ensure you have in Variables:
    • in URL - snapshot.cgi?user=YourUserName&pwd=Your_Password
    • in DirectStreamingURL - /img/video.mjpeg

And it all should work!!
