Formatting the Internal Storage 

If you are out in the

previous recording 

session you are 

able to clear the

the COUNTcam2 by 

formatting the disk. 
To format tap the 'settings' icon in the top right 

corner of the app (figure 2, 1) Note: the settings 

icon will only be visible when the app is in portrait 

mode (figure 2) 

Note: When the mobile device is in portrait mode,

 

the battery indicator of the COUNTcam2 is much 

easier to distinguish and can be seen in Figure 2, 2.
Once in the settings menu, you will see the option

 

to format. Tap the format bar and you will be asked

 

if you want to format the internal storage, tapping

of 

 

the

3. Installation

Proper COUNTcam2 installation in the field is crucial 

to capturing usable video data. This section reviews 

the best practices for installing your COUNTcam2 

in the field.

Always use caution and best judgment when 

working  in  the  field.  Equipping  your  vehicle 

with warning lights and/or a roof beacon is 

recommended for your protection. Additionally, 

wearing  reflective  clothing  or  a  safety  vest  is 

recommended to increase your visibility to drivers .

Selecting a Location

At the desired recording 

site, find a tree, utility pole, 

or street sign that allows 

for a clear view of the 

area to be recorded. The 

camera should be 50-100 

ft (15-30m) from the center 

of the intersection. 

• Avoid setup locations where objects may 

obstruct views, such as bus stops and truck 

loading zones.

• Try to position the camera facing North or South 

to avoid sun glare during sunrise or sunset which 

could obstruct the video footage. 

• A birds-eye view will make the video easier to 

count, try to install the camera high up and 

pointed down.

•  Wear  reflective  vests  /  clothing  when  working 

in  and  around  traffic  to  increase  visibility  to 

motorists. It is also recommended to engage 

the hazard lights and install a light beacon on 

your vehicle if it will obstruct traffic. 

• Unless given special permission, installation 

of  equipment  on  private  property  is  not 

recommended.

• Avoid interaction with wildlife at installation site  

by all means necessary.
