ALPR contexts are created for specific regions in order to optimize ALPR for the license plates of that region.

NOTE:
  • The number of characters required to trigger a license plate read depends on the ALPR context being used. For more information, contact your AutoVu representative.
  • To help us improve the performance of regional contexts, click Configuration > Connectivity > Product improvement and register this camera to participate in the Product improvement program.
