I'm trying to find the URL for the live snapshot on a new Honeywell HBL6GR2 camera I am evaluating. I need to be able to pull the image as a jpg from a URL such as:

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/image.jpg

I was told by Honeywell this was possible but can find nothing in the documentation (here), and their tech support has been useless as I bought direct and not through a "dealer."

I've found pages such as these and tried all combinations of URLs to get a JPG with no success:

https://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=Honeywell http://www.camera-sdk.com/p_183-how-to-connect-to-your-honeywell-ip-camera-onvif.html

I can access the admin portal fine, but need a direct link to the live image on the camera (a custom port will be needed also, but that can wait).

How can I go about finding this URL (if it even exists)? I can't imagine this camera doesn't support this.

The standard is ONVIF. Per their documentation:

ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) is a global standard for the interoperability of IP-based physical security products. You can enable or disable ONVIF authentication on the Setup > Network Setup > Connection > ONVIF page.

Try this:

Easiest way to figure this out is to install Onvif Device Manager and Wireshark.

Add your device to Onvif Device Manager with Wireshark running and then search the Wireshark for GetSnapshotUriResponse. This will give you the URL of the snapshot if it is indeed supported by the device
