Licensing of the software module for License plate recognition (VT) on Linux OS

General information

The software module for License plate recognition (VT) in Axxon One is licensed by the processed video channels and by countries (see License plate recognition (VT)).

Installing the Sentinel LDK Run-time environment

To install the Sentinel LDK Run-time environment, do the following:

1. Upload the environment to the Server on which the license will be used.

   wget --no-check-certificate https://release.vit.ua/Sentinel/vit_hasp_install.tar.gz -O ~/vit_hasp_install.tar.gz

2. Unpack the archive.

   tar zxvf ~/vit_hasp_install.tar.gz -C ~

3. Run the installation.

   cd ~/vit-hasp
   sudo ./install.sh

   Note

   If the environment is successfully installed, the Sentinel Admin Control Center web application will open in the Web browser at http://127.0.0.1:1947/.

Installation of the Sentinel LDK Run-time environment is complete.

Installing a demo license

There are three types of demo license used for demo mode of the License plate recognition (VT).

1. Search in the archive — a standard demo license for searching the recognized license plates in the archive

   Attention!

   If you use this license, note that there is a 30 seconds delay between the recognition of a license plate and the appearance of a corresponding event (see Vehicle number plate recognition and search).

2. Fast demo license — the video stream is processed at speed up to 25 fps on 4 channels; the license plates are recognized on vehicles moving at speed up to 150 km/h. The demo mode is valid for 60 days from the moment the demo key is activated.
3. Slow demo license — the video stream is processed at speed up to 6 fps on 4 channels; the license plates are recognized on vehicles moving at speed up to 20 km/h. The demo mode is valid for 60 days from the moment the demo key is activated.

To install a demo license, do the following:

1. Download the installation file of the required demo license: Search in the archive; Fast; Slow.
2. Activate the demo license.

   1. for 64-bit system:

      /usr/local/bin/hasprus_x86_64_EOAWT u /usr/local/share/hasp-eoawt/<Required demo license file with the v2c extension>

   2. for 32-bit system:

       /usr/local/bin/hasprus_EOAWT u /usr/local/share/hasp-eoawt/<Required demo license file with the v2c extension>

      Note

      If the result is “0”, it means the demo license is successfully installed.

3. After you activate the demo license, restart the OS.

   sudo reboot

The installation of the demo license is now complete.

Installing a hardware key

To ensure the hardware key operation, it is necessary to connect the hardware key to the Server where you plan to use the License plate recognition (VT). If the Sentinel LDK Run-time environment is successfully installed, the license is automatically recognized by Axxon One and it is ready to use.

The installation of the hardware key is now complete.

Installing a software key

To install a software key, do the following:

1. Create a snapshot of the Server hardware. A snapshot is a file with the c2v extension. The created file fingerprint.c2v will be located in /usr/local/share/hasp-eoawt/.

   cd /<Path to the installation package>/  
   sh get_fingerprint.sh

2. Give the created file with the c2v extension to the AxxonSoft manager.

3. Get a v2c file from the AxxonSoft manager. The received file will contain license information that will be available for use only on your Server.

4. Activate the license to install a software key.

   1. for 64-bit system:

      /usr/local/bin/hasprus_x86_64_EOAWT u /usr/local/share/hasp-eoawt/<Received file with the v2c extension>

   2. for 32-bit system:

      /usr/local/bin/hasprus_EOAWT u /usr/local/share/hasp-eoawt/<Received file with the v2c extension>

5. After you activate the license, restart the OS.

   sudo reboot

The installation of the software key is now complete.

Activating and updating the license

To activate/update the license, do the following:

1. Create a snapshot of the current state of the license contained on the Server. A snapshot is a file with the c2v extension. The created file haspinfo.c2v will be located in /usr/local/share/hasp-eoawt/.

   cd /<Path to the installation package>/  
   sh get_haspinfo.sh

2. Give the created file with the c2v extension to the AxxonSoft manager.

3. Get a v2c file from the AxxonSoft manager. The received file will contain license information that will be available for use only on your Server.

4. Activate/update the license.

   1. for 64-bit system:

      /usr/local/bin/hasprus_x86_64_EOAWT u /usr/local/share/hasp-eoawt/<Received file with the v2c extension>

   2. for 32-bit system:

      /usr/local/bin/hasprus_EOAWT u /usr/local/share/hasp-eoawt/<Received file with the v2c extension>

5. After you activate/update the license, restart the OS.

   sudo reboot

The activation/update of the license is now complete.

Removing a license

To delete a license, do the following:

1. Open the contents of the c2v file that was created for the installation, activation or update of the current license. The license ID in the body of the key is indicated as <hasp id="Identifier of the current license">.
2. Delete the v2c file that has the same ID as the c2v file located in /var/hasplm/installed/107392/.

3. Stop the processes.

   killall aksusbd
   killall haspmld

4. Start the services.

   haspmld -s
   aksusbd

5. After you delete the license, restart the OS.

   sudo reboot

The removal of the license is now complete.

Checking a license

You can check the current license status on the Server. To do this, open the Sentinel Admin Control Center web application. The license information is displayed on the Features tab.

If there is no Web browser on the Server, execute the following two commands in the console one by one:

curl -X POST -d 'accremote=1' http://localhost:1947/_int_/config.html
wget --post-data 'accremote=1' http://localhost:1947/_int_/config.html
