Using the Sharp Admin with SharpX
There is an important difference between connecting to a Sharp and connecting to a
SharpX. For SharpX units, the Sharp Admin does not connect to the SharpX itself, but
rather to the single board computer (SBC) inside the LPR Processing Unit that controls the
SharpX camera. This is a crucial distinction if you are using a 4-port LPR Processing Unit,
because it has two internal SBCs (one SBC can control two SharpX cameras). This means
that you’ll need to open a separate Sharp Admin web page for each SBC.
EXAMPLE You have an AutoVu mobile configuration that includes three SharpX cameras
connected to a 4-port LPR Processing Unit. Two of the cameras are controlled by one of the
SBCs, and the third camera is controlled by the other SBC. On the back of a 4-port LPR
Processing Unit, there is a printed label has two Sharp names (e.g. Sharp1000 and
Sharp1001). These are the names that correspond to the SBCs inside the unit. Therefore, to
configure the SharpX cameras connected to ports 1 and 2, you must log on to http://
Sharp1000/portal/, and to configure the SharpX camera connected to port 3, you must log
on to http://Sharp1001/portal/.
For more information on how to configure a SharpX system using the Sharp Admin, see
"Sharp Admin reference" on page 224.
