Counters
VCAsys also supports object counting. Any combination of detection zones or lines can be
assigned to a counter. Counters can be configured to perform any combination of
incremental, decremental or occupancy counting. Counter configuration is managed through
the properties inspector in a similar way to the zone configuration.

Creating Counters
To create a counter simply click the right mouse button and select Counters... Add Counter.
The counter name can be changed by clicking in the Name box on the rules control.
Assigning Rules to Counters
Counters count triggers generated by rule violations. For example, if it is required to count
the number of objects entering a zone, a zone must initially be configured to raise an alarm
every time an object enters it. The zone can then be assigned to a counter and the counter
will count the objects according to the type of counting required (increment, decrement,
occupancy).
