Step 3 - Mount SmartSensor HD on a Pole
Firmly secure the SmartSensor to a pole or fixed location at a height between 4 and 10 m from
the desired monitoring surface. Firmly secure the mounting bracket on a vertical or horizontal
pole using the ½ inch band straps included in shipment. The bracket is adjustable and has 70° of
tilt adjustability. Aim the front of sensor at the center of the detection area. If the SmartSensor is
installed closer than 5 m to the first lane of traffic, point the sensor up (smaller tilt angle) and
choose a lower mounting position as shown in table 3.1. Adjust the side-to-side angle to within
2° of perpendicular to the flow of traffic. Connect the power/communication cable to the
SmartSensor and attach the modem antenna if applicable. Attention should be given to securing
the loose cable to the pole with minimum slack, to avoid undue movement from wind.
