  • Page 3: Functional Description

    PCR1 Version 3 Users manual Functional description PCR1 is a radar-based people flow sensor with LoRaWAN data connection. The integrated radar sensor detects persons moving in parallel to the housing surface. A person is counted as soon as he or she enters and leaves the detection zone. The unit can be installed horizontally at a height between 125 and 140 cm or upside down at a ceiling.

    PCR1 Version 3 Users manual Installation The person counter can be mounted either laterally or overhead. The maximum Detection distance is approx. 10 m. The best results are achieved if the housing surface is parallel to the walking direction. Important! This device is based on the principle of approximation and distance from the Doppler-Radar sensor.
