Note 3: Setting Trigger Length = 255 keep the trigger active until vehicle has passed the measurement 
point. 
 
Note 4: Beam that sets trigger output signal (DIGOUT) can be selected for approaching vehicles. When 
this bit is set trigger will occur when vehicle is detected by Beam A. In case bit is cleared or Speed limit is 
set trigger will occur when vehicle is detected by Beam B. 

Following information may be added to the result:

Note 5: The vehicle size (length) is an estimation based on the speed and the time the sensor is able to 
get results from a vehicle. This principle generates longer value for higher vehicle than its real length is. 

Note! In this mode the sensor will send 

the message ”OK” once a minute if the sensor is 

functional (the message can be disabled by Bit 1 of Control Byte 3, par. 26).
