Hotlist entity
Properties
The Properties tab is where you configure the basic properties of the hotlist (hotlist priority,
hotlist path, attributes, and so on). These settings tell Security Center how to parse the
hotlist file into the format required by the Patroller and the LPR Manager to identify plates
read by Sharp units.
• Priority. Choose a hotlist a priority. Zero (0) is the highest priority setting and 100 is
the lowest priority setting. This setting is used to resolve conflicts when a plate read
matches more than one hotlist, in which case the hotlist with the highest priority is displayed
first in the list of hotlist matches.
• Hotlist path. Type the path to the hotlist text file. Every hotlist entity in Security Center
must be associated with a text file containing the actual hotlist data; that is, license
plate numbers and other related vehicle information. The associated text file is typically
created by a third party system (e.g. Notepad).
IMPORTANT This file must be accessible from the computer hosting the LPR Manager.
• Use delimiters. Tells Security Center that the fields in the hotlist file are of variable
length and indicates the character used to separate each field in the file. By default, Use
delimiters is set to On, and the delimiter specified is a semi-colon (;). If your hotlist
file is made up of fixed length fields, set Use delimiters to Off.
Security Center supports the following delimiters:
• Colon (:)
