Mcam100 pan & tilt home security camera

[Will Hoevenaars]

Picked up a Mcam100 camera from Jaycar out of a bargain bin without cables
and software.
Has anyone the installation / driver software CD for it and be able to
supply me with a copy?

Yes I tried them before but it won't download when clicking on the link.
I will sent an email to mcam4u to see what the problem is.
Thanks Den.

Success !! I found a German site with the required software.
http://www.motionwebcam.com/Support.html
Downloaded it and the camera is working.
Now I have to solve the problem of finding or making a serial cable with a
RS232 on one end and a 4P4C modular plug (same as on a hand set of a
telephone) has only 4 wires also wrongly called an RJ9, RJ10 and RJ22.
Plug looks like this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RJ10
Any one knows how to wire it up? (only 4 wires!) but the RS232 has 9 :-(
and that enables to move the camera about.
Thanks for your interest
Will.

Engdahl's site might have something here:

Then again whoever designed it might have just said - "I'll wire them this
way!"
