Select a mounting height
Use the table to select the mount-
ing height for the sensor based on
the offset from the nearest detec-
tion lane. The range of ideal offsets
is highlighted in gray. If possible,
use the height contained in the
second column (Recommended
Mounting Height).
In areas with a lot of truck traffic,
consider a higher mounting height
to help mitigate occlusion.
