2.4.2 Debug Radar

Aer road informaon (number of lanes and lane width) and installaon parameters (trigger distance and installaon height) are set, view the real-me vehicle status displaying window to check whether the vehicle is in the corresponding lane or not. Set the angle correcon and horizontal shi as required to ensure that the target vehicle is in the corresponding lane.

The above parameters should be set according to the actual installaon condions. The horizontal shi value is negave to the le and posive to the right, and the posive center of all lanes are set as the value of 0. If the radar is installed at the le lane, set the horizontal shi as a negave value (the deviaon value of distance from the center of all lanes). If the radar is installed at the right lane, set the horizontal shi as a posive value, as shown in Figure 2-7.

Figure 2-7 Horizontal Shi Sengs

Firstly, the moving track should be straight and the initial appearance distance should be greater than the trigger distance. Otherwise, some of the targets will be undetectable.

For instance, if the trigger distance of Towards Direcon is set as 28 meters, the appearance distance should be set as about 35 meters.

Secondly, it is necessary to ensure that the detected lane corresponds to the actual lane.

Otherwise the lane number will be inconsistent with the data reported. Adjust the value of pitch oset based on the moving track shi.

Aer debugging, click Measure Mode and the radar will run normally.

Chapter 3 FAQ

- Connecng to soware failed.

• Check whether the computer has been installed a serial port driver, and then view the port number in device management module.
• If the radar is connected to the software, the serial port parameters are set as follows: baud rate 115200, data bit 8, stop bit 1, parity none.
• Connect radar cables to RS-485 serial port, with the blue one connects to pin 1 of DB9, the yellow one connects to pin 2 and the green one connects to pin 5.

- Detecng targets failed.

- Check radar parameters and adjust the pitch angle to enable the radar beam to cover the trigger posion.

For instance, if the trigger distance is set as 28 meters but the pitch angle is over downward, then only area within 20 meters can be covered. In this case, the radar won't be triggered when a vehicle passing through the set position. Adjust the pitch angle to make it cover a range of 28 meters.

- Check camera RS-485 serial port, baud rate, radar type, and other parameters. It is recommended to use USB with UT891 or UT890 chip to RS-485 switch line, which is user friendly and boasts of a low bit error rate.
