QUICK-REFERENCE GUIDE
1

Ensure that all necessary components are available

You will need a number of items in order to install your sensor, including but not limited to the items below:
˽ Mount bracket and Band-It clamping system
˽ Sensor cable and homerun cable
˽ Click equipment and pole-mount box
2

Select a mounting height

Use the table to select the mount-
ing height for the sensor based on
the offset from the nearest detec-
tion lane. The range of ideal offsets
is highlighted in gray. If possible,
use the height contained in the
second column (Recommended
Mounting Height).
In areas with a lot of truck traffic,
consider a higher mounting height
to help mitigate occlusion.
Note. This table is truncated. For
a complete table, refer to the HD
user guide.

Attach the sensor and mount bracket to the pole

1
Attach the mount bracket to the pole using the straps.
2
Tighten the strap screws partway. The sensor alignment will need to
be fine-tuned later, so keep the straps slightly loose.
3
Attach the sensor to the bracket; the connector at the bottom of the
unit should point towards the ground.
4
Place the lock washers onto the bolts, thread on the nuts and tighten.
