Why does an XProtect match-list alarm fail after the plate is recognized?

Answered by ANPR AI·Sourced

Short answer

A list match needs an associated event to trigger the intended workflow.

Explanation

Successful OCR does not by itself configure an alarm action.

Things to check

  • Plate entry
  • Events triggered by list match
  • Downstream rule

What to do

Select the required event in the match list and verify the rule action with a fresh recognition.

ANPR Edge

Skip the dedicated ANPR camera. Read plates from the cameras you already have.

ANPR Edge is plate-recognition software that runs on a PC at your site and works with ordinary IP cameras, so plate reads no longer depend on one vendor's camera, NVR or firmware.

  • Works with standard IP cameras over RTSP
  • One license per location covers every camera
  • Runs on a Windows PC or Mac you own
