This section lists the settings found in the ALPR unit Properties tab, in the ALPR task.

In the Properties tab, you can view hardware and software information about the Sharp unit, such as the IP address and port being used. You can also associate a specific hotlist to the Sharp, or link the ALPR camera in the Sharp to an Omnicast™ camera, or the Sharp's own context camera.

File association
Select how the Sharp behaves with hotlists:
Inherit from ALPR Manager role
The Sharp uses the hotlists associated with its parent ALPR Manager. This is the default setting.
Specific
Associate specific hotlists with the Sharp unit. This allows you to create Event-to-actions in Security Desk that trigger on that specific hotlist. For example, if you’re using the Sharp to allow access to a parking lot, you would put the vehicle plates on a hotlist, and then associate that hotlist to the Sharp.
NOTE: To reboot a fixed Sharp, click the Reboot button found in the toolbar at the bottom of the Config Tool workspace. If the Reboot button is not visible, log on to the Sharp Portals’s Configuration page, and then select Accept remote reboot requests. For more information, see the administrator guide for your Sharp camera.
