Editing hotlists and permit lists - Security Center 5.11

You can edit a hotlist or permit list using the Hotlist and permit editor task.

What you should know

Using the Hotlist and permit editor, you can add, edit, or delete items from existing lists that were created in Config Tool. When you edit a hotlist or permit list, the text file is updated and your patrol vehicles, or Sharp cameras receive the new information.

• When you edit a hotlist in Config Tool, the linked source .txt file or .csv file is automatically updated. Likewise, if you edit the source file, the Config Tool hotlist is automatically updated.
• To edit a hotlist, you must have the Add entries, Delete entries, and Modify entries privileges for hotlists and permit lists.
• If a hotlist has more than 100000 records, an error message is displayed to inform that the hotlist is only partially loaded.
