Overview of AutoVu™ SharpV camera integration in Synergis™ Softwire - Synergis™ Softwire 11.1

AutoVu™ SharpV cameras are capable of reading license plates from passing vehicles. When a SharpV camera is installed in a fixed location with a view of vehicle license plates as they approach a vehicle access barrier, plate reads from the camera can be used as credentials in Security Center. If the plate number matches a user's credentials, the system triggers the barrier to allow access to the vehicle.

NOTE: The ability to use license plate reads as a credential is only available in Security Center 5.6 and later.
