Camera path ID

What is being referred to when talking about the camera path ID? What is the exact ID that needs to be filled into the remote packager to set a certain camera as default? Is this Device instance path? Hardware ID? etc

Im referring to below topic:

  • The easiest way to figure out the USB path is to install APM Remote onto the device that is going to be used in your environment.  Launch APM remote, go to take a photo on a work request or indicator reading, set the camera that you want to use as the default.  Then open the settings, system tray right click on the apm remote icon, then go to settings.  Copy the USB path and put it in the packager.  The exact path is different depending on the tablet hardware and camera hardware.

    If you want to disable the camera selector for the user, then you can also set the show camera selector to false.  Both of these options are in the advanced settings editor.

  • The field for the camera path ID remains empty. 

    Is it possible to find the correct camera path ID through the device manager? Which is the correct property we are looking for? 

  • Sorry I thought I had replied to this,  The Windows camera integration plugin omits setting this value.  In order to find the correct USB path string you can turn on logging for:

    Ivara.Client.Plugins.Hardware.Windows8UsbCamera.Widnows8UsbCameraManager Info level logging

    In the log file it will have multiple lines:

    Adding camera <Name>, <ID>

    Where name is the name that is displayed in the dropdown and ID is the value that you need to put in the setting above.
