This section lists the settings found in the Genetec Patroller™ Properties tab, in the ALPR task.
In the Properties tab, you can view information about the computer hosting the
Patroller entity (you cannot edit the Patroller properties). You can also configure sound
management, acknowledgment buffer settings, and a hit delay for the Patroller unit.
- Properties
- Lists the properties of the Patroller
in-vehicle computer.
- IP address
- IP address of the Patroller computer.
- Version
- Version number of the Patroller application.
- Type
- Patroller installation type(s).
- Serial number.
- Serial number of the Patroller.
- Machine name
- Name of the Patroller computer.
- Updater Service version
- Displays the updater service version running on the Patroller computer.
- File association
- Select how the Patroller behaves with
hotlists and/or permit lists:
- Inherit from ALPR Manager role
- Patroller uses the hotlists and permit lists associated with its parent ALPR Manager. This is the default setting.
- Specific
- Associate specific hotlists or permit lists with the Patroller unit rather than the ALPR Manager. If you later want to move the Patroller entity to another ALPR Manager on your system, the hotlist or permit list will follow.
- Sound management
- Configure Patroller to play a sound when
reading a plate and/or generating a hit, and choose whether sounds should be played
even when Patroller is minimized.
- Play sound on hit
- Plays a sound when Patroller generates a hit.
- Play sound on read
- Plays a sound when Patroller reads a plate.
- Play sounds even when minimized
- Play sounds even if the Patroller window is minimized.
- Acknowledgment buffer
- Specify a buffer restriction that limits how many hits can remain unacknowledged
(not accepted or rejected) before Patroller
starts automatically rejecting all subsequent hits. You can also choose (by
priority) which hotlists should comply with this restriction.
- Reject count
- How many unacknowledged hits are allowed.
- Reject priority
- When you create a hotlist entity, you can specify a priority for that hotlist. This setting tells Patroller which hotlist(s) should comply with the buffer restriction.
- Hotlist and permit
- Specify the Duplicate hit delay that tells Patroller to disregard multiple hits on the same plate for the duration of the delay. For example, if you set a delay of 10 minutes, no matter how many times Patroller reads the same plate during those 10 minutes, it will generate only one hit.
