About

Ronin Camera Link

Features
Read full description

The Ronin Camera Link app is used with the Ronin Camera and the Ronin Sentinel from Diamond Edge Technology. The app allows you to connect to any camera and live view the current Thermal and Video streams, capture images, change settings, and download saved images. You can also connect the app through your network to a Ronin Sentinel base station and access radio connected cameras anywhere on your property. Once an image or video has been captured, you can use the app to view the images and easily modify the thermal imaging properties (such as View Mode, Color Tracker Settings, and Thermal Image configuration). It is easy to share images and videos by email or text, and to adjust the operation of your Ronin Sentinel base station right from your device. This makes the Ronin Camera Link app an integral part of your Ronin Camera System.
