THEORY OF OPERATION
The INTERSECTOR sensor uses FSK microwave radar to identify, classify, and track vehicles by position and speed. This information is overlaid in an X-Y coordinate system, allowing users to set up detection zones. Presence of a vehicle in a user-defined zone will produce an output to the control output. Users are able to set a maximum presence time, and associate unique outputs, time delays, or output delays with individual zones.
The interface board monitors whether the sensor is functioning, and provides a means for end users to set up zones via a connection to a laptop computer. It also provides the outputs to the control panel, and includes LEDs which allow end users to verify operation without having to connect to the laptop.
GLOSSARY
MAIN SCREEN: The main screen is the first screen that will be displayed when the INTERSECTOR is connected to the Setup Port of the Interface board and a laptop is also connected to the Laptop Ethernet Port. From the Main Screen you will have two options: 1. SETUP
2. ZONE SETTING
SETUP: This page will give the installer five options:
1. SIMULATION MODE ON: This turns on SIMULATION MODE and will allow the installer to set the number of vehicles that will be displayed in SIMULATION MODE.
2. SIMULATION MODE OFF: Turns off SIMULATION MODE so you can monitor live traffic again.
3. SET DEFAULT VALUES: This will allow the installer to reset the sensor to factory settings.
4. DELAY BEFORE MAX: Controls how long the target vehicle will be detected before the target will be changed to OZP/MAX presence timer.
5. OZP/MAX TIME: Occlusion Zone Protection (OZP) is a timer that will count down the value set in the OZP/MAX TIME field. This timer will begin when the Delay Before Max timer has expired, or if occlusion occurs, and a vehicle disappears from the zone. When the OZP/MAX TIME reaches 0, the vehicle will be dropped from the zone. It is recommended that the value for the OZP/MAX TIME is set relatively short (20 seconds), to avoid vehicles being held for long periods. The vehicle ID will be highlighted in a yellow box while the OZP timer is active.
6. SET RF CHANNEL: Assigning a value of 1-7 in this field will select the RF channel that the INTERSECTOR sensor will use for operation. For best results, use a different channel for each sensor used at an intersection.

ZONE SETTING: This is the main entry to the PROGRAMMING SCREEN for the INTERSECTOR.
PROGRAMMING SCREEN: This is the area where the installer can setup detection zones, Offset Angle, and track vehicle progress. This screen consists of three main parts: The TARGET SETUP TABLE, VEHICLE TABLE, and DATA DISPLAY.
SET ZONE DATA: This function stores zone data to hard memory. When any data is changed on the PROGRAMMING SCREEN, it will only be stored when this is selected.
TARGET SETUP TABLE: This section of the PROGRAMMING SCREEN is where all setup data will be entered to be installed to the INTERSECTOR. The Table consists of several data values:
ZONE: Zone is the term used to describe the area where the vehicle will be detected. In some cases this is known as the “loop”. Up to 8 separate zones can be created.
X: X is the first coordinate used to determine the location of a zone. The X coordinate is the horizontal dimension and represents the distance from the sensor to the center of the zone in the X axis (Diagram 1).
Y: Y is the second coordinate used to determine the location of a zone. The Y coordinate is the vertical dimension and represents the distance from the sensor to the center of the stop bar zone (Diagram 1).
Y Front: This value extends the zone in front of the original point (closer to the intersection).
Y Behind: This value is the depth of the zone behind the original point (farther from the intersection).
Width of Zone: This is the width of the zone in relation to its center.
DELAY TIME: Time that the detector will wait before allowing the output to be recognized.
EXTENSION TIME: Time that the output will extend after a vehicle leaves the zone.
OPTO OUTPUT: This value indicates the output for the controller input (rack). A setting of 0 indicates the output for this zone is currently disabled.

GLOSSARY (continued)
VEHICLE COUNT: This is the total count of all vehicles that have entered this zone.
BIKE: Selecting “Bike” will ignore larger vehicles and send a signal if a bike is present in the zone and moving at a speed of 18 mph (29 kph) or slower for those who want to provide additional time when bicycles are present.
PULSE: This setting is used as a vehicle counter, typically in the advanced detection zone. When in PULSE MODE, a 0.125 second pulse for every vehicle that enters the zone will be displayed. The zone will not be held, and will display only one pulse per car. A zone in PULSE MODE will be highlighted in blue while a vehicle is present.
ZONE DESCRIPTION: User defined description of the zone that has been set up.
BREAD CRUMBS: This feature simplifies zone alignment by displaying the path that each detected vehicle has traveled, illustrating lanes of traffic flow.
TECH MODE: Technician Mode - this display control allows the service technician to observe the operation as vehicles pass through the zone. Normally indication would specify merely detection or non-detection (On or Off). Technician Mode will also allow the technician to observe if the vehicle has stopped in DELAY BEFORE MAX or if it is in OZP.
DAYS, HOURS, MINUTES, AND SECONDS: This indicates the service time of the sensor.
SET SENSOR ORIENTATION: This is the section where the X and Y coordinates are entered to calculate the Offset Angle that will allow electronic alignment of the sensor to the center of the desired detection area. Installers may enter the X and Y coordinates, or the Offset Angle. If the X and Y coordinates are entered, the Offset Angle will be automatically calculated. The Offset Angle can then be modified if necessary.
1. X is the distance left or right of the sensor to the center of the desired detection area (left will be a negative number, right will be positive).
2. Y is the distance from the sensor to the center of the stop bar zone.
3. Offset Angle is typically between -12° to +12°.
TABLE SETUP SECTION: This section consists of features useful in setting up the TARGET SETUP TABLE.
ZONE SELECT: This value selects the zone to be programmed. ID: This value selects the identification of a vehicle in the VEHICLE TABLE which can be found directly below this setting. This value is used to copy the data of the selected vehicle. COPY DATA: Selecting this feature will enter the information for the selected ID to the corresponding zone selected in Zone Select, in the TARGET SETUP TABLE.

CLEAR VEHICLE COUNT: Resets the VEHICLE COUNT for all zones.
UNIT SELECT: This feature will allow information to be entered in either feet or meters. Changing from one unit to the other will automatically convert numerical data in the table.
CONFIGURE: Selecting the configure button will open a drop down menu that will allow outputs to be assigned certain features, such as Tail Extensions, Wrong Way detection, or speed ranges. For more information on Configure options, please see page 18 in the Adjustments section. SET DISPLAY AREA: Repositions the DATA DISPLAY area based on the following settings:
MOVE LEFT OR RIGHT: Moves the DATA DISPLAY area left or right based on the value entered. A negative value moves left, a positive value moves right. STOP/START: This feature is used to Stop or Start the display of live data. The main use is to stop the display of data when a vehicle is present at a desired location. The data for this vehicle can then be copied into the TARGET SETUP TABLE using Copy Data, to establish a zone. OPTO OUTPUT: This is a visual indication of the sensor outputs that correspond to the interface board LEDs.
VEHICLE TABLE: This is a real time data table for the vehicle activity shown on the DATA DISPLAY. This information can be used for setting up zones or tracking intersection activity. When the Stop button is selected, the data displayed will pause, and can be copied to the TARGET SETUP TABLE. The actual data will continue to be gathered, even when the displayed data is paused. When the live display is restarted, the data will update to show the current values.
ID: The ID number is assigned to a vehicle (Vehicle Number) to aid in copying the data to the TARGET SETUP TABLE. VEHICLE NUMBER: This is the vehicle number that appears in the DATA DISPLAY area of the screen. X POSITION: This is the X position of the corresponding vehicle as it relates to the sensor. Y POSITION: This is the Y position of the corresponding vehicle as it relates to the sensor. SPEED: This is the speed for the corresponding vehicle.
DATA DISPLAY: This is the area that graphically displays the vehicle activity detected by the sensor.

INTERSECTOR
Microwave Motion and
Presence Sensor Installation Instructions
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The INTERSECTOR is a microwave vehicle motion and presence tracking sensor designed for intersection control. The INTERSECTOR offers several advantages when compared to cameras or loop detectors:
• Detection is not affected by weather
• Immune to sunrise/sunset or post-rain glare
• Not susceptible to in-road breakage
• Multiple lanes can be covered by a single unit
• Easily installs overhead to corner signal poles (Traffic lane closure may not be required)
• No privacy concerns
• Reduces construction costs (no special poles/bucket trucks required)
Through its user interface, the INTERSECTOR allows users to visually track vehicles as they approach the intersection and allows easy setup of detection zones to provide programmable inputs to a traffic control cabinet. The interface also provides the ability to verify that the system is functioning properly, or to troubleshoot the system, using a SIMULATION MODE.

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION PREPARATION
NOTE: Remember to read all installation instructions carefully prior to
!
installation of the unit. For a quicker installation, carefully pre-screen installation location. Prior to installation of the INTERSECTOR, please complete the INTERSECTOR worksheet. The worksheet is included with this manual.
Please inspect mounting location to ensure the following criteria are met:
• Mounting height should be between 14 feet and 20 feet.
• Distance from the sensor to the stop bar should not exceed 140 feet.
• Distance from the sensor to the closest detection zone should be at least 50 feet.
• Typical range of the TC-CK1-SBE is 600 feet.
• The TC-CK1-SBE has a detection width of 30 degrees. For best results the sensor should be mounted at a tilt angle between horizontal to 3 degrees downward plus or minus the road slope.
• Installation requires a laptop with Internet Explorer version 6.0 or greater, at least 2 GB RAM available, safe cable & Ethernet cable.
TOOL REQUIREMENTS: To properly install the INTERSECTOR, it is necessary to have the following tools on hand:
Angle Meter Ethernet Cable Tester
7/16” Box Wrench or Socket • Modular Plug Termination Tool (Crimp Tool)
The INTERSECTOR is designed to be mounted at a height of 14 to 20 feet on a corner signal pole or on a mast arm no further than 10 feet from the signal pole. Maximum offset angle from traffic direction should be ±15 degrees. Mounting outside this range may reduce performance. Mount the sensor to the pole using stainless steel banding or bolts (not included). Make sure the sensor is mounted level.
INTERSECTOR ANGLE SETTINGS: There are two angle settings for the INTERSECTOR; side to side (azimuth) and up and down (elevation). The azimuth setting is accomplished visually using the gun sight at the top of the unit. Aim the gun sight across the center of the stop bar region. Check to ensure that cars should be tracked approximately 30 feet past the stop bar for a left turn lane. To set the elevation, use the angle meter which is included in the INTERSECTOR installation kit. The Installation Table Recommended Settings below provides initial settings for installation, based on the distance to the stop bar. These settings may need additional adjustment depending on factors such as the slope of the road. Rotating the unit downward will decrease total range, but will ensure detection closer to the unit.

INSTALLATION (continued)
It is necessary to prepare the cable and insert it through the housing prior to attaching the load bar and Ethernet connector (RJ45 plug).
NOTE: Cat.5e direct burial shielded cable is recommended to keep
!
Electromagnetic Interference, or (EMI), from effecting the ability of the cable to transmit data. EMI can pass through the cable, corrupting your data and shutting down communication. The Shielding in the wire helps to prevent this energy from getting through and causing adverse effects to the TC-CK1-SBE communication data.
CABLE PREPARATION: Using an 8 conductor, 24 AWG per conductor solid or stranded cable, the cable jacket should be stripped as shown in Figure 1 and then inserted through the cable fitting and the plug housing assembly.

INSTALLATION (continued)
Refer to your completed INTERSECTOR Worksheet and enter the Offset Angle or dimensions to the center of the stop bar zone. Click on SET SENSOR ORIENTATION to save the value. This should correctly align the vehicles passing through the stop bar area on the graphics portion of the screen (right side).
Turn on BREAD CRUMBS by clicking the box in the upper right portion of the screen. Use the Bread Crumb graphics to ensure that the sensor is aligned properly. If the BREAD CRUMBS for the left or right turn lane are ending early, adjust the sensor side to side until the desired tracking is displayed. If the BREAD CRUMBS for the straight lanes are ending early or extending too far, adjust the tip angle up or down slightly. Fine tune the offset angle so that the path of vehicles aligns with the vertical lines displayed. Note that these lines do not represent lanes, but are merely to be used for alignment purposes. If you are working with a curved road, look for alignment in the stop bar area only.
SETTING UP DETECTION ZONES: If this is your first time setting up an INTERSECTOR, you can explore its capabilities in SIMULATION MODE. Please refer to Appendix A for more information.
The best way to set up detection zones is to base your zones off of real traffic. When a car is in a desired zone, click the Stop button.
Next, refer to the VEHICLE TABLE and locate the desired ID to copy. The vehicle number should match what you see in the DATA DISPLAY.
On the Zone Select line of the webpage, choose the zone that you want to set up (Zone 1 is the default). Then choose the ID that you selected in the previous step. Note that this is the ID number, not the Vehicle number. Then click COPY DATA, and the zone should appear in the graphics portion of the screen. A stop bar graphic will appear at the front of Zone 1.
Now it is time to fine tune the zone. To extend the zone farther forward, adjust Y Front entry (10 feet is the default value). To extend the zone farther back, adjust the Y Behind value (80 feet is the default value). To widen or narrow your zone, adjust the Width of Zone entry (12 feet is the default value). If you have adjacent zones, we recommend leaving no gap between them - even a little overlap is OK. To apply DELAY TIME or EXTENSION TIME to a zone, enter values for those entries. Next, choose an output by entering a value for OPTO OUTPUT (0-4). A value of zero will indicate this zone is turned off. No output will be sent for a vehicle detected within this zone. Finally, enter a description for the zone for future reference. Check BIKE ONLY to ignore cars and trucks that may be in the zone.

INSTALLATION (continued)
If you find that you need to move the overall location of a zone, you can move a zone to the left by decreasing the X value (note that X values may be negative in some cases). Increasing the X value will move the zone to the right. Decreasing the Y value will move the zone closer, while increasing it will move the zone farther away.
The new zone will show in yellow except when a vehicle is present. If a vehicle is present in a zone, the color changes to red. When you are satisfied with the location of your zone, click on SET ZONE DATA near the upper left of your screen. At this point, the yellow zone will turn green, indicating that it is saved to memory. You will also observe traffic again in the DATA DISPLAY and in the VEHICLE TABLE.
Repeat the previous steps as necessary to create additional zones.
We recommend observing traffic for a short while to observe that all zones are operating as intended. BREAD CRUMBS may be beneficial for making these observations. Make any adjustments to the dimensions of the zones if necessary. Any zones being altered will turn back to yellow instead of green when no vehicle is present. Click SET ZONE DATA to save your changes.
To save your setup to file, follow these steps:
Click on SET ZONE DATA to store your setup in the INTERSECTOR
Select FAVORITES on the Toolbar at the top of your internet browser.
Select ADD TO FAVORITES, name the setup (possibly the direction of traffic at this intersection such as Westbound), and create a new folder to store this favorite in, such as the intersection name (Main and 1st street).
You can also copy the website link from the address bar and paste it to a Word document. This Word document can then be saved as a file. We recommend naming the file with the intersection and direction name (MainFirstWestbound.doc).
When you are satisfied with your settings and ready to enter operational mode, click on BACK at the upper left. Please note that if you haven’t clicked SET ZONE DATA, one or more of your changes may not be saved.

Observe the location that the zone is shown on the DATA DISPLAY. If the zone needs to be moved or resized, use the following guidelines:
To move the zone left, The X coordinate value should be decreased. If necessary, the value can be negative. (Example: -38.00)
To move the zone right, the X coordinate value should be increased.
To move the zone farther away (up on the screen), the Y coordinate value should be increased.
To move the zone closer (down on the screen), the Y coordinate value should be decreased.
To make the zone wider or narrower, increase or decrease the value for Width of Zone.
Increasing or decreasing the values for Y Front or Y Behind will lengthen or make the zone shallower.
NOTE: For instructions on saving and loading data using 1.9U software, please refer to the Addendum at the end of this manual
How to save the data acquired per approach for an intersection.
First click on SET ZONE DATA. This saves all of the data for that approach of the INTERSECTOR that you are working with to the address bar at the top of your browser.

No regular maintenance of the INTERSECTOR is required. During the installation and setup of the INTERSECTOR, certain problems may occur. We have attempted to list some common problems and possible solutions. If you need further assistance while installing the INTERSECTOR, please contact MS Sedco Technical Support at (317) 842-2545.
DESCRIPTION OF
PROBLEM
When the TCIB card is plugged in the LED lights do not light up:
LED lights are always on:
Unable to see setup page when computer is connected:
SOLUTION
• Check for power to the TCIB board.
• Verify that traffic is present in detection zones. Move Ethernet cable to setup port. Connect PC and verify zone location and sensor aim.
• Prior to completion of setup the TCIB board will keep LED lights on as a “constant call”. Ensure that Ethernet cable is connected to operational port. Connect sensor to computer and setup zones.
• Check to ensure that Ethernet cable is connected to sensor
• Check to ensure that Ethernet cable is plugged into Setup port and laptop is connected to laptop port of the TCIB board
• With the INTERSECTOR installed and connected to your PC the Ethernet LEDs on the PC should show connection. One LED is connection and should stay on, and the other is data which should blink.
• Ensure that laptop IP address is set to proper address (as detailed on Page 7 of installation manual)
• Check LEDs on the TCIB card. If they are not on, the TCIB card is not functioning.
• Check the Ethernet cable. Plug the cable from the sensor into the operational Ethernet port on the TCIB and see that the LEDs go out to ensure the sensor is functioning properly and there is Ethernet communication.
Once Ethernet connection is made, and you see the Zone Setup page on your PC you see a message at the top of the page that reads “Sensor Error”:
MS Sedco INTERSECTOR Installation Instructions Page 32 INTERSECTOR-1.9Uv092717
• There is a problem with the sensor that cannot be corrected in the field. Contact your distributor or MS Sedco for further information.

APPENDIX A: SIMULATION MODE
SIMULATION MODE can be used to demonstrate the INTERSECTOR, confirm proper installation, or learn how to set up zones and use features. For first-time INTERSECTOR installers, SIMULATION MODE can be used to gain an understanding of the sensor setup and some of the sensor’s operating characteristics.
To enter SIMULATION MODE, follow these steps:
Start with MAIN PAGE.
1. Click on SETUP.
2. Enter 1 for SIMULATION MODE ON and click on SIMULATION MODE ON. This enables SIMULATION MODE.
3. Click on BACK.
4. Click on ZONE SETTING. When this page loads you will see one vehicle pass through the grid. a. Note the ID of the object increments by one each time. b. Vehicles are sequentially numbered from 0 to 63 and then the numbering loops back to 0. c. You can STOP the display to copy X and Y locations to any Zone. Vehicle tracking is fully working while the display is stopped. d. You can set up a zone for this object manually. Note the zone turning yellow when you change any parameter on the zone. You must click on SET ZONE DATA or any changes are lost. e. To use AUTO DETECT click on the check box when the vehicle is at the top of the grid. Note that as it goes through the stop bar the screen will freeze and update the angle. It will stay at zero since the vehicle is going vertically. The number 20 is the distance in front and behind the stop bar which INTERSECTOR uses to calculate and correct for angle of travel of cars. In other words it looks at Y =120 and Y=80 and using the X value for each point determines the offset angle to make cars go through straight. The value 20 can be reduced or increased but this is a good starting point. 10 may work better for smaller intersections. f. The zone will begin working when you enter the X dimension for this vehicle. Note it is typically -16 feet for Zone 1. Enter this number (-16) for Zone 1 X cell. Click on SET ZONE DATA. Note the vehicle will go through the center of the zone now and Zone 1 counter will increment each time the vehicle goes through the zone. OPTO OUTPUT 1 will also turn red indicating detection.
5. Go back to SIMULATION MODE ON and enter 16. Click on back and then click on ZONE SETTING.
6. Now you will see 16 vehicles going through the grid. NOTE: in SIMULATION MODE, Delay Before Max Time is not valid and the objects stay on the screen forever.
7. Now we will shift the grid to show how to center the vehicles and then expand the grid to see zones in detail. Enter 100 for Move Left Or Right. Note the screen shifts right. The grids shift right also.

8. Check BREAD CRUMBS. Note the crumbs left as each car travels through. Uncheck and the crumbs disappear.
9. Open drop box for FEET and METRIC and chose METRIC. Note all dimensions have been changed to metric. If you save in metric and then go back to English you may have rounding errors (e.g. 100 feet will become 99.99).
10. Note the clock. This is an hour meter for INTERSECTOR. Time is saved every 30 minutes. If you unplug before 30 minutes it resets to zero again. If you unplug at 31 minutes it will reset to 31 minutes.
11. To add a second zone use Zone 2 and enter 2 for OPTO OUTPUT. Enter 16 for X to center this zone on one lane of cars. Click on SET ZONE DATA. Note zone 2 is active and OPTO OUTPUT 2 is active. Click on SET ZONE DATA to store this text.
12. Typical set up for a zone would be to overlap side by side zones by 1 foot. Adjust the WIDTH OF ZONE to get 1 foot overlap. The overlap is visible as darker area. If a vehicle enters that area both Zones will be activated.
13. To copy data, click on STOP. The vehicles will stop on the display but moving vehicles are still being tracked. Set ZONE SELECT to 3. Select ID to any vehicle you would like to set a zone at. Note that the ID number is different from the Vehicle number, which appears in the second column and in the chart. Note the X and Y position of this ID and then click on COPY DATA. Those X and Y values are now in the table. Set OPTO OUTPUT for zone 3 to 4. Click on START. Now you have created a new zone that will activate OPTO OUTPUT 4. To take the unit back to its initial settings, go to MAIN MENU, click on SETUP, then click on SET DEFAULT VALUES. Upon returning to ZONE SETTING, all values should be back to factory settings.
14. When finished, click on BACK, then on SETUP, then on SIMULATION MODE OFF.

INTERSECTOR1.9U SOFTWARE ADDENDUM
This addendum details changes to the INTERSECTOR features that are dependent on the following conditions:
• TC-CK1-SBE main board software is upgraded to
1.9U
• Radar firmware upgraded to 229-05-8
• TCIB software upgraded to
1.4S
TC-CK1-SBE 1.9U UPDATES
There are five key features that change in the 1.9U software:
1. Rain Failsafe
2. Automated OZP
3. Zone Clear Feature
4. Save and Load Zone Data
5. Bicycle Classification Sensitivity
EXPLANATION OF CHANGES
Rain Failsafe
The 1.9U version of INTERSECTOR software calculates a Rain Intensity Factor by counting the number of raindrops detected within the first 10 feet of the radar’s view and measuring the size of the drops. The Rain Intensity Factor and Rain Flag are displayed on the Zone Settings page above the grid. As shown in Figure 1, Rain Intensity Factor is the first number.
Figure 1
MS Sedco INTERSECTOR Installation Instructions Page Addendum-1 INTERSECTOR-1.9Uv092717
INTERSECTOR Microwave Motion and
Presence Sensor Installation Instructions
EXPLANATION OF CHANGES (CONTINUED)
Rain Failsafe (continued)
If this exceeds the Rain Counter Threshold, which can be found and adjusted on the Setup page, as shown in Figure 2, the message “RAIN” is displayed just to the right of Rain Intensity Factor. When this happens, the INTERSECTOR and associated TCIB(s) will go into RECALL. This will continue until the Rain Intensity Factor has dropped below the Rain Counter Threshold and remains there for 5 minutes.
The Default setting for Rain Counter Threshold is 1000, which specifies heavy rainfall, as shown on the graph in Figure 3. Blowing winds that cause rain to be directed at the INTERSECTOR could also affect the Rain Intensity Factor. Increasing the Rain Counter Threshold will decrease sensitivity to rain. Decreasing the Rain Counter Threshold will increase rain sensitivity. The maximum accepted value is 5000. To disable rain detection, set the Rain Counter Threshold to 5000.
Figure 2
MS Sedco INTERSECTOR Installation Instructions Page Addendum-2 INTERSECTOR-1.9Uv092717
Figure 3
INTERSECTOR Microwave Motion and
Presence Sensor Installation Instructions
EXPLANATION OF CHANGES (CONTINUED)
Automated OZP
In previous versions of INTERSECTOR software, a timer called Delay Before Max (DBM) is assigned to a vehicle once it stops moving. The stopped vehicle is held in its last reported position until its DBM timer expires, or the vehicle moves. If a vehicle stops in the zone, the DBM timer will begin counting down. Should this same vehicle move, the DBM timer will reset to its original max value. If the vehicle stops again, the DBM timer would begin counting down again. In addition to DBM, the INTERSECTOR utilizes a second timer, Occlusion Zone Protection (OZP), that is applied to the last vehicle in a zone, when its DBM timer has expired or it disappears from detection due to occlusion.
In the 1.9U version of INTERSECTOR software, the user can change how stopped or occluded vehicles are processed. By clearing the OZP / Max Time value on the Setup page, if an OZP event happens (vehicle is occluded) to the last vehicle in a zone, the remaining time on the DBM timer for the vehicle is assigned to OZP and the vehicle is held at its last position until time expires, or the vehicle begins moving again. The default value for DBM is 120, and the default value for OZP / Max Time is null (no value). If a value is entered in the OZP/Max Time field, the unit will operate as it did in previous software versions.
Figure 4

EXPLANATION OF CHANGES (CONTINUED)
Automated OZP (continued)
In addition to these changes, the DBM timer setting for a stopped vehicle is now displayed on the Zone Setting page, in the Vehicle Table. When a vehicle is stopped, its classification field is changed to the remaining DBM timer value. Once the vehicle speed is greater than 0, the classification field will switch back, as shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5
Zone Clear Feature
The new Clear feature allows the user to set automatic timing for clearing hung vehicles as traffic begins to move. The INTERSECTOR will track vehicles as they begin to leave the detection zones. Once a vehicle has moved 10 feet past the front edge of the zone, the value in the “Set Clear Time” field will begin counting down. Any vehicles that did not reach the “Clear Speed” once the front vehicle has departed will be cleared after the timer has expired. Both the “Set Clear Time” and “Clear Speed” fields are configurable on the Setup page, as shown in Figure 6. Default value for “Set Clear Time” is 1.0 seconds. Default value for “Clear Speed” is 2.0 mph. Ranges for these fields are from
0.0 to 10.0. To disable this feature, set “Set Clear Time” to 0.

Bicycle Classification Sensitivity
The Bike Classification Sensitivity adjustment allows the user to customize how sensitive the INTERSECTOR is for detecting vehicles as either bikes or cars. In some installations, the INTERSECTOR may be more likely to incorrectly classify cars as bicycle traffic, or vice versa. If cars are being misclassified as bikes, decrease the Bike Sensitivity value. If bicycles are being misclassified as cars, increase the Bike Sensitivity value. The adjustment range of this field is between 0 and 5000. The default setting is 1500. Typically, a setting of 300 would accurately classify cars coming from an angle (driveways, roundabouts, etc.), or where bike-only zones are not required. A setting of 1250 to 2000 will offer better accuracy in bike-friendly areas with long, straight approaches.
NOTE: While the Bike Sensitivity setting can assist in correctly classifying bike or
!
cars, the INTERSECTOR mounting is crucial. For best results for bike classification, the INTERSECTOR should be installed between 16 to 20 feet mounting height, using an offset angle between 0 ± 10 degrees, and an additional tilt angle of approximately 3 degrees downward (to a maximum of -9 degrees) relative to the slope of the road. If a vehicle’s speed exceeds ~18.7 mph, it will always be classified as a car.
