CHAPTER 5 SENSOR CONFIGURATION PAGE

Figure 5.10 – Approaches

To add lanes to an approach, hold the mouse button down anywhere on the lane row and

drag the row onto the name of the desired approach. Lanes are listed in the approach display

and sorted by lane ID for convenience. There is no limit to how many lanes can be assigned

to the same approach. Approaches without lane assignments can be kept as part of the sen-

sor configuration and will have no effect on Collector operation.

To edit an existing approach, select the approach name in the list on the left, change the

name, type or direction as desired and click Update Approach.

To delete an approach, select the approach in the list and click the Delete Approach but-

ton. All lanes assigned to a deleted approach will automatically be reassigned to the first

approach in the list. The last remaining approach for a sensor cannot be deleted. Deleting

an approach has no effect on data collection or sensor configuration.

Saving Changes

All changes made to Lane/Approach configuration, including custom IDs, are not perma-

nently saved unless you click the Save Changes button. Click Cancel Changes to abandon

any recent changes and return to the previously saved Lane/Approach configuration. A

warning will appear if you attempt to switch tabs or navigate to another page with unsaved

changes.

Sensor Commands Tab

The Sensor Commands tab allows you to send specific commands directly to the sensor

(see Figure 5.11). To send a command, select the radio button next to the command name

and click the Run Command button. The result will be displayed in the Result field at the

bottom of the screen. If a driver does not support a command, the command option will

be grayed out.
