The list of the supported countries is given in the description of the functional characteristics of the corresponding LPR module in Configuring the Auto-Intellect software package and setting up its components.

When configuring the LPR channel with the AUTO-Uragan/CARMEN-Auto/VIT/LPR IntelliVision/RoadAR/Taiwan activated module, it is necessary to specify the country to be able to identify the plates belonging to that country. This setting specifies the format of the license plates to be used in the recognition process.

Note

The plates of the selected country will be recognized with maximum probability. The plates which do not fit the plate format of the selected country will still be recognized, although with lesser probability. 

 To select the country, do the following:

  1. Go to the settings panel of the LPR channel object, representing the activated recognition module (see Activating the software module used for identifying the plates).

  2. From the Country drop-down list (1), select the issuing country.

    Attention!

    The By default value is available for the LPR IntelliVision module. In this case it will be possible to recognize license plates of all supported countries, though the recognition quality may become worse.

    Note

    If the CARMEN-Auto module is activated, two recognition engines are created by default: cmanpr-7.2.7.108: general and cmanpr-7.2.7.108: default.

    • the cmanpr-7.2.7.108: general recognition engine is used for recognizing all Latin characters of the plates (for example, corresponding to countries such as Argentina, India, Africa and Singapore), although the country recognition function is not used.
    • the cmanpr-7.2.7.108: default recognition engine contains the basic settings for the license plates recognition.

    To add additional recognition engines, download them from the AxxonSoft website and install them using the EngineManager utility. The procedure of installing the recognition engines using the EngineManager utility is described in the engine_install_windows.txt file located in the folder with corresponding recognition engine.

    The Hazard Identification Number Recognition Engine (ADR) SDK can be added to the list of the countries as a separate "country". This SDK is named cmanpr- <version number>: latin_eadr in the list of countries. If it is selected as the country issuing the license plate, the recognition module will be able to identify the license plates of the states using the Latin alphabet, as well as the specialized license plates of vehicles carrying hazard goods, with detecting and recognizing the type of cargo being transported. The information about the transported cargo will be displayed by the Vehicle Tracer module in the list of vehicle parameters, and also sent in the event about the recognized number.

    Two-line license plates are supported in the CARMEN-Auto module when the cmanpr-<version nunber> : arab recognizer is selected.

    In the Online monitor, the recognized Arabic license plate numbers are always displayed in two lines. The first line begins with the Arabic numbers, and then the Arabic letters are displayed. The second line, by default, begins with the Latin letters, then numbers. To display in the second line the Latin numbers first, and then the letters, it is necessary to set the VehiclePlateSearch.RightToLeft registry key value to 0 (for details, see Registry keys reference guide, for more information about working with the registry, see Working with Windows OS registry).

    Attention!

    There is a special utility for the VIT and AUTO-Uragan modules (see PatCgfr.exe utility for active patterns configuration or PresetEditor.exe utility for active patterns configuration of VIT module) using which it is possible to set patterns configurations. Each configuration determines what license patterns will be recognized by the camera. Using various configurations it is possible to set various recognition rules for various cameras.

    Note

    If the software module supports the two-line license plates recognition, then in order to display them in the Event Viewer in two lines, it is necessary to set the RemoveNewLine registry key value to 0 (for details, see Registry keys reference guide, for more information about working with the registry, see Working with Windows OS registry).

  3. Click the Apply button (2).

The country that issued the license plate is now selected.
