CHAPTER 9 • DRIVER REFERENCE

˽

Baud Rate – Baud rate for modem connection (Mikros devices are modem commu-

nication only).

˽

Timeout – Time in milliseconds Collector will attempt to make a modem connection

before returning.

˽

Retry Count – If Collector cannot make a modem connection in the timeout period,

(or if it contains a NO CARRIER error), it will try again this number of times before

abandoning the collection attempt completely.

˽

Clear Data – Mikros has the ability to remove data from the onboard memory after col-

lection. If checked, Collector will clear the device buffers after successfully download-

ing data; if unchecked, the previous data will remain.

˽

Daytime Collection – If unchecked, the Diamond driver will ignore data collection

commands during daytime hours (7 a.m. to midnight).

Class Mappings

Some Mikros devices have special PRG20/PRG23 or Heavy/Regular Vehicle collection en-

abled. This allows you to decide how those special vehicle classes are mapped to the stan-

dard Class1 to Class13 Collector classes. Ignore means that data is not mapped to any of the

thirteen classes, and is ignored.

Diamond

Diamond traffic products specialize in traffic measurement and count up to four lanes of

traffic using road tube, piezo, and/or loop presence sensors (see Figure 9.8).
