  • Page 25: The Detection Area

    EXAMPLE: If H = 225 cm and the “25-30 cm” range is selected the PCN-1001 will count - with the maximum precision - people having heights from around 100 cm to around 200 cm. People outside this range (very tall or very short) probably will not be detected correctly and will not be counted.
  • Page 26 The following picture gives you an example of frontal and lateral views of the installation. When installing the PCN-1001, make sure that all the people crossing the gate are also crossing the Detection area. If the detection area is shifted to the right or left, some people may not be seen and therefore counting errors may occur.

  • Page 27: Number Of Pcn-1001 Devices Required

    The number of PCN-1001 devices required depends on the width of the gate. For gate widths up to 120 cm you need only one PCN-1001. For gates wider than 120 cm you need to install a supplementary PCN-1001 for each additional 60 cm, and connect the devices in Wide-gate configuration.
