SE-NET-007: Address is not valid

SecureEyes could not parse something it needed. The catalogue means the camera's address, which should be an IP address or a hostname. A reply from the camera that cannot be parsed gets the same code.

What it says

SE-NET-007: Address is not valid. Enter an IP address such as 192.168.1.50, or a hostname.

Where you see it

As an error message after a camera action whose failure the app reads this way: Run test and Reboot under Maintenance, Check Again, Fetch Thumbnail, the Change OSD name switch, and Light on Live, and after Add Camera on Add by IP address when the add itself fails (the camera is then not added). The app files every parse failure (a Dart FormatException) under this code.

What to do

  1. 01If it came after Add Camera on Add by IP address, choose Add, then Add by IP address, and type the address again as an IP address such as 192.168.1.50, or a plain hostname.
  2. 02Otherwise open the camera's settings: in Live, select the camera, choose Settings under the picture, then Advanced Settings. A camera saved with no stream shows Fix This Camera in place of the picture, which opens the same page.
  3. 03Under General, read IP address / Host URL. If it is not an IP address such as 192.168.1.50, or a plain hostname, choose Update IP Address, correct it, and choose Update. SecureEyes does not check the address when you save it.
  4. 04If the address is right, SecureEyes could not read the camera's reply. Try the action again.
