Hikvision Camera Activation through ISAPI

Configuration
1

Hi I would like to know if it is possible to activate a Hikvision camera through ISAPI.

I am currently using PUT http://192.168.1.64/ISAPI/System/activate

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ActivateInfo version="2.0" xmlns="http://www.hikvision.com/ver20/XMLSchema">
 <password>XXXXX</password>
</ActivateInfo>

But the response I get is : Status : 400 Bad Request

<<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ResponseStatus version="2.0" xmlns="http://www.hikvision.com/ver20/XMLSchema">
    <requestURL>/ISAPI/System/activate</requestURL>
    <statusCode>6</statusCode>
    <statusString>Invalid XML Content</statusString>
    <subStatusCode>badParameters</subStatusCode>
</ResponseStatus>

Any advice? @pergola.fabio Thx in advance.

Whats your exact command?

Try it with a curl command:

curl -i --digest -u admin:xxx -X PUT http://192.168.1.64/ISAPI/System/activate

ok, that doesnt work, according to manual, you also need to send XML too

Here is an example with XML, try that one, change offcourse the stuff you need to change:

curl -i --digest -u admin:xxx -X PUT -d '<RemoteControlDoor><cmd>open</cmd></RemoteControlDoor>' http://192.168.0.x/ISAPI/AccessControl/RemoteControl/door/1
