I am not sure how the APEX dashboard works, but if you can edit the webpage it creates, you should be able to iframe the camera image into it.

hey guys i actually ended up going with the Foscam FI8910W (Black) Wireless IP Camera. After contacting neptune they siad the Foscam FI9821W (Black) 720p Megapixel H.264 Wireless B/G/N IP Camera will not work. The FI8910W
camera was very easy to set up and to get the video stream to work with the apex dash bored was also easy i followed the chart on reeftronics web site for the right url link (http://www.reeftronics.net/dashcam). I was honestly hopeing the video quailty would be better. I guess i expect everything to be crisp clean clear hd if i could find a camera to work and be crystal clear i would by it.

. I will try and get some screen shots, any question i can help with feel free to ask!
