5. Click the drop-down under Traffic direction and select the direction of
traffic in the zone.
6. Repeat Steps 3-5 for the remaining zones.
7. To widen, shorten, or adjust zone positions, use the controls provided on
the page.
8. When complete, click Save changes.
9. Verify vehicle counts.
The vehicle count verification of a successful zone setup is an essential part of
the installation. During the process you will compare RTMS Echo volume
counts over a period of time to a manual (visual) count for the same interval.
Use of a hand-held tally counter is recommended.
IMPORTANT: The recommended and most accurate method of verifying
vehicle counts is to perform the verification individually on
each zone. However, if a sufficient number of personnel are
available, all zones can be verified simultaneously. This
alternate process requires at least one person per zone for
manual count purposes.
1. Select the Calibrate tab.
2. To ensure that all columns are set to zero, click Clear all.
3. Select the check box for the zone(s) for which vehicles are to be counted.
