Choose speed, length or class to choose which of these will
3
appear on top of the detections (the detections appear as teal
rectangles moving across the screen).
Compare the detections on the software, with their speed,

length or class information, with what is observed in the road-
way. If they match, the lanes are set up properly.
If the detections don't match traffic
You may be able to improve accuracy by adjusting lane properties
and thresholds (covered later in this chapter), double-checking
the alignment (covered in the previous chapter), or changing the
mounting locations. If all else fails, contact your dealer or support@
wavetronix.com.
