About the People Counter

Mounted at ceiling heights up to 4.3m (14ft), the IVS People Counter device (Figure 1) tracks the paths of
people within its field-of-view (Figure 2). The IVS device can cover an entrance up to 2.4m (8ft). The IVS
device is also capable of reporting counts to a remote location through one of the following dedicated
communication interfaces:

• Ethernet

• LDM II via RS-485

• Bluetooth.

Coverage

Ceiling-mounted up to a height of 4.3m (14ft), the IVS device can cover a doorway or opening up to 2.4m (8ft)
wide.

The IVS device is powered by a 48Vdc Power over the Ethernet (PoE) device.

Tracking

A floor-facing camera in the IVS device is used to determine the height of a desired target (adults), and thus to
distinguish them from undesired targets such as shopping carts, pets, and children.

• A count line is projected across the entrance. The line is a virtual trip wire you draw on the video image

where the “feet” of the person tracked are to be counted.

• The count line can be set to trigger the count from a person crossing it while entering an area.

• A person entering an area is counted as one “enter”. A person exiting an area is counted as one “exit”.

• A personal computer is used to setup the IVS device and view what it detects. Downloaded or web-based

setup software displays the camera image.

Mounting Considerations

Perform a site survey (Appendix A) while observing the installation site for the following considerations.

Ceiling Considerations

• Composition: Sheet rock, plaster, suspended ceiling.

The IVS device can attach to any 1/4-20 thread-per-inch bolt of a customer mounting bracket.

• Height: The IVS device can be mounted up to a height of 4.3m (14ft).

CAUTION: The tilt of the IVS device should follow the slope of the floor. The setup software can

adjust IVS device settings for unavoidable tilt, as long as it is less than 10 degrees of the floor
slope (placeholder, TBD).

CAUTION: Mounting over stairs or highly sloped floors is not recommended (placeholder, TBD).

• Access: Check for in-ceiling obstacles such as ceiling vents and fire sprinklers.

• Location: Mount the IVS device in such a way that its field-of-view is centered over the entry/exit corridor.

Also, do not mount the IVS device to capture people through glass or other translucent surfaces
(placeholder, TBD).

Traffic Corral Points

Check for walls, displays and anti-theft pedestals that help corral traffic. Ideally, the traffic path should be
elongated as much as possible under the IVS device.

PoE Device

The PoE device supplied with the IVS device is typically placed in computer wiring room or next to the IVS
device near a convenient power outlet. The PoE comes with a 1.8m (6ft) power cable.

Other Considerations

• 24-hour or timed power available.

• Cable distance from IVS device to computer wiring room: DO NOT exceed a maximum of 100m (330ft).

• Network switch type and ports available.

Running the Cables

Run a Cat5 cable from the installation site for the IVS device to the installation site for the PoE. Run another
cable from the PoE to the store’s computer wiring room.

Note: Cat5 cable runs cannot exceed 100m (330ft) without using a repeater. Terminate cables following Error!
Reference source not found. below.

• Use plenum / non-plenum cable per local requirements.

• Use pre-manufactured patch cables when available.

• Leave a sufficient service loop at end of each home run.

• Test all cables. Most on-site issues are cable related.

Connecting Video, Communications, and Power to the IVS Device

The PoE can be placed in the computer room (where power is readily accessible) as long as cable length from
the PoE to the IVS Device does not exceed 100m (330ft). The minimum cable length is 0.5m.

1. Connect the following cables (Figure 4):

a. Connect a Cat5 cable between the host computer and the LAN input on the PoE.

b. Connect a Cat5 cable between the PoE Injector “LAN+DC” port (power and communications) and the

Ethernet connector J1 in the IVS device.

Verification Test

1. Check out the entire ‘IVS Engineering Test Tool Setup’ folder

from StarTeam. Locate the ‘IVS Engineering Test Tool’ icon
on the desktop of your laptop.

The Test Tool is used to perform initial installation of the IVS
and can be used to verify count information obtained from the
IVS Device. Communications will occur via one of two
communications media: Ethernet or Bluetooth (selectable via
a pull down menu).

The IVS Engineering Test Tool can:

• Display the static video image “seen” by the IVS Device

• Be used to draw count lines

• Transmit count lines to the DSP

• Be used to set and maintain time

• Display and storing count data.

2. On your laptop, click the icon to open the IVS Engineering

Test Tool.

3. From the pull down menu ‘Select COM’, select ‘Configure’ to

invoke the following ‘Input Requested’ dialog box. Enter the
IP address for the IVS Device and click OK.

4. Connect a Cat5 cable from the PoE Injector “LAN” port to the

Ethernet port on your laptop.

5. From the ‘Select COM’ pull down menu, select ‘TCP/IP’. At

the bottom of the screen, click ‘Connect’.

7. On the side panel of the Test Tool, select the ‘Image’ tab.

Then from the ‘Get’ pull down menu, select ‘Image’. Verify on
the DVR screen that the IVS Device is capturing and
processing the video image.

8. Verify that the image on your display corresponds to the

image “seen” by the IVS device.

9. Select ‘New Line’ from the side panel of the Test Tool. Select

the line color from color palette and click OK.

10. Using the mouse, position the cursor to indicate the start of
the line, drag it to the desired destination point, then click the
cursor again. An arrow indicates the traffic direction.

• Dragging the line left to right produces an UP arrow.

• Dragging the line right to left produces a DOWN arrow.

• Traffic crossing the line in the direction of the arrow would

trigger ‘IN’ counts.

• Traffic crossing the line in the direction opposite the arrow

would trigger “OUT’ counts.

11. From the ‘Diag’ pull down menu, select ‘Verification Test’ to
invoke an ‘Open’ dialog box to save the count data to a .txt
file. Name and save file for later retrieval.

Note: A ‘Test In Progress’ indication at the bottom right of the
Test Tool appears as shown below.

12. After the prescribed count intervals, terminate the verification
test by clicking ‘Disconnect’ at the bottom of the Test Tool.

13. Retrieve .txt file for count verification against the DVR
captured events.

Adjusting the Count Line

The IVS device automatically sets the count line at
the middle of its field-of-view. However, in certain
situations, the line may have to be moved forward
or backward.

To move the count line, do the following:

Setting the IP Address for the IVS
Device

Auto addressing

Each IVS Device is automatically assigned a Static
IP address of 198.168.0.1.

The best method is to disconnect all network
connections from your laptop, manually assign it an
IP address (such as 192.168.1.10), and then
connect it directly to the IVS Device. Then each
IVS Device can be assigned a unique address
such as 192.168.1.7 for IVS Device 1, 192.168.1.8
for IVS Device 2, and 192.168.1.9 for IVS Device

3.

In this section, you will:

• Set a static IP address on your laptop

• Connect a IVS Device to your laptop

• Set the IP address for the IVS Device.

Laptop Requirements

The following is required to run IVS software.

. Press Enter. The

8. To save your changes, click Save.

CAUTION: If you change the IP
address on a IVS Device

and click

Save, you will lose access to that IVS
device for several seconds while the
IVS device sets itself with the new IP
Address. You will have to type the
new IP address into the address bar
of the browser and press enter to
reload the application.

CAUTION: If you are assigning the IP
to a new subnet, you will lose access
to the IVS device until you connect
the IVS device to the assigned subnet
or until you modify the PC Network
settings to include the new subnet.

The IVS device is now ready to be connected to
the network using its new IP address and network
configuration. Disconnect all cables from the IVS
device and laptop.

Complete the steps in this section for each
additional IVS device to be installed.

When done, set your laptop’s network configuration
back to its original settings.

3. Assign the IVS Device a fixed IP address by
selecting No from the DHCP Enabled field.

address for the IVS Device. Type the IP
address the IVS Device will use on your
network in the IP Address field.

5. Type the Network Mask, Default Gateway, and
DNS Server (optional) addresses for the
network used by the IVS device.

6. Click the Link Speed drop-down arrow and
select a network speed for the IVS device. If
you have not been told to set the Link Speed,
leave the speed set to Auto Detect.
