The License Plate Management (LPM) protocol provides a Sharp camera with a secure and reliable connection to Security Center. When The LPM protocol is enabled on a Sharp camera, the protocol manages the camera’s connection to the ALPR Manager role.
Before you begin
- Minimum SharpOS version: 12.7NOTE: If your SharpV was shipped with SharpOS 12.7 or later and you are manually adding the SharpV to Security Center, you do not need to upgrade it to use the LPM protocol.
- Minimum Security Center version: 5.8
What you should know
- After you upgrade your SharpV to 12.7 or later, you can still connect to Security Center using the Active extension: Security Center (Legacy) until you upgrade to the LPM protocol.
- If the LPM protocol is enabled on the camera, Security Center can only connect to the camera using the LPM protocol.
- If a camera uses the LPM protocol to connect to Security Center, the Active extension in the Sharp Portal is set to Security Center (LPM protocol).
- You cannot revert the LPM protocol upgrade.
