    For normal mode:

    Yes –  if Yes—if the camera is armed, the LPR channel scans all video images til until the basic motion detection of the Intellect software is in the Alarm mode; If the camera is not armed, the LPR doesn't work, but manual start using scripts is available (see item 6 in the Scripts used in the Auto-Intellect software package section). Recognition will process frames until the stop command will be done.

    No – the No—the LPR channel scans video images permanently.

    For Parking mode:

    Yes –if Yes—if the camera is armed, the LPR channel scans all video images, until the plate will be recognized, after it recognition stops even if the Alarm mode is still in process and procedure repeats when the new trigger of alarm is activated; if the camera is not armed, the LPR doesn't work, but manual start using scripts is available (see item 6 in the Scripts used in the Auto-Intellect software package section). Recognition will process frames until the plate will be recognized and then will stop before new manual start.

    by LP position - the position—the direction is determined by the position of the upper part of the LP number. If the upper part of the LP number at the start of tracking is lower than the upper part of the LP number at the end of tracking, then the direction is defined as From the camera, otherwise - To the camera.

    by LP area - the area—the direction is determined by the license plate area. If the LP area at the start of tracking is larger than the LP area at the end of tracking, then the direction is defined as From the camera, otherwise - To the camera.

    by SDK - the SDK—the direction is determined by the SDK.  CurrentlyCurrently, the following LP recognition modules support this mode: RoadAR, VIT, AUTO-UraganLPR IntelliVision.
