Understanding VMS and LPR camera status

Learn how Corvid displays separate VMS and LPR status signals for each camera, what the overall status badge means, and how to diagnose camera health issues.

Overview
​
Each camera in Corvid shows two separate status signals: VMS status (the video management stream connection) and LPR status (the license plate recognition service). Understanding both helps you quickly diagnose whether a camera issue is affecting video, plate reads, or both.
​
​What the Status Badge Shows
​
The status badge on each camera reflects overall health based on both signals:
• Online — Both VMS and LPR are operational.
• Degraded — One signal is down. Hover over the badge to see which one is affected.
• Offline — Both signals are down or the camera is unreachable.
​
Hovering the badge opens a tooltip showing the individual VMS and LPR status so you can identify the exact issue at a glance.


​
​Live Status Updates
​
Camera status updates in real time — you don't need to refresh the page. The badge and tooltip reflect the current state as changes are detected.
​
​Where to See Status
​
• The Devices page — status badge visible on each camera card.
• Camera detail panels — full VMS and LPR status displayed in the camera info section.
