Complete sensor alignment
1 Select Lanes from the main menu, then Configuration. Click the magnifying
glass icon at the bottom of the screen and choose Show Alignment.
2 Adjust the sensor according to the arrows and colors shown. Green means the sen-
sor is positioned for optimal performance; yellow and red mean you need to adjust.
3 Once the alignment is right, tighten the sensor mount’s strap screws all the way.
For the tool to function properly, traffic must be flowing freely. Also, if the sensor is
not already aligned close to perpendicular to traffic, this tool will display a question
mark, indicating that the sensor is too far out of alignment for the tool to function properly.
