PCR2-OD Datasheet

PCR2-OD

PCR2 are bidirectional people counters that use a new type of 24 GHz radar transceiver to detect motion from both directions simultaneously.

The PCR2-OD is designed for outdoor usage in harsh environments and is IP65 protected. When mounted on a walkway the integrated radar transceiver can count pedestrians walking parallel to the the devices surface.

Readings are transmitted at regular intervals over a public or private LoRaWAN™ network. All parametric sensors are equipped with a USB configuration port for firmware setup and update.

  • Configuration via USB-Port or LoRaWAN™ Downlinks
  • Pole or surface mount
  • External power supply 5-12V DC or USB
  • Firmware updates over USB
  • Free Lifetime firmware updates
  • Swiss made
  • 24 months warranty

Applications

  • Outdoor People Counting

Technical Specification

Note: This technical specs relate to Firmware 4.0

Side Mounting

When mounted at a wall or at a pole, PCR2-OD can detect people passing by in both directions on walkways 0.5m up to 5m wide.

IMPORTANT: Persons walking side-by-side will be counted as one person.

Wall mounting

Tilted

The device can be mounted at a pole at around 3m facing towards the walkway. Our pole mount MT80-10 (accessory) can be used for that.

IMPORTANT: Persons passing by walking side by side ca not be separated and will be counted as one person.
