  • Updated

Applies to: PNB-A9091RLPH, XNO-6120R, XNV-6120R, LPR Application, WAVE

Summary

This article provides instructions to configure the LPR (License Plate Recognition) application to receive LPR events from the Wisenet WAVE VMS. The application is capable of sending bookmark events that consist of a license plate number and a time stamp, along with the camera footage when configured correctly.

NOTE: The LPR Solution is currently available only on select WISENET Cameras, 
specifically the PNB-A9091RLPH, XNO-6120R, and the XNV-6120R.

Configuring the LPR Application

To configure the LPR application:

  1. Make sure the camera is added in to the WAVE VMS by following the WAVE documentation on adding the camera. Create a Generic event in WAVE to capture the license plates.

  2. Log in to the camera and click Open platform > Go App to open the LPR Application.

  3. In order to allow the LPR Application to send events, go to Setup menu > Event action setup and enable TCP for Every Plate event (or one or more lists) in the corresponding boxes, to receive the license plate readings in WAVE VMS.

  4. Set the Protocol to WAVE HTTP in the TCP menu to send the plate readings to WAVE VMS.

    Enter the username and password of a user account for the WAVE Server.

    Enter the IP address and communication port (port 7001 is the default), as per WAVE configuration.

    After entering the information above, click Apply to confirm the changes.

    You may need to disable the WAVE setting Allow only secure connections.

  5. Go to the WAVE client and view the events as the LPR data is read. (Ctrl+B can provide you a list of all bookmark events in WAVE).

  6. On the WAVE server, you do not need to change any configurations. The system will automatically receive the events associated with the camera.
NOTE: Currently, there is no way to search in the Objects/Analytics search box 
of WAVE for a license plate. However, you can search in the Bookmarks list for 
full or partial plates.
