4. How to check ANPR record?

Before checking record, please ensure that you have done correct settings to make record work.

Step1: Set Smart Analysis as Record Type in Storage -> Video Record -> Record Schedule interface.

Record Schedule interface

Step2: Black List Mode or White List Mode or Visitor Mode is enabled as your demand.

Step3: Effective time and Trigger Channels Record action of Black List Mode/White List Mode/Visitor Mode is set (Full effective time and trigger channel record are set by default).

Then NVR will record when license plate is detected .

Note:

Generally, record is triggered by event. If you just enable ANPR function without enabling Black List/White List/Visitor modes and setting record action, that means you just enable the function while record action is not set. Then no record will be triggered. So it is necessary to do all above three steps if you want to trigger record.
