TCR-SLE GEN2 Datasheet
TCR-SLE is a solar powered radar object counter with integrated LoRaWAN® connectivity.
The system shared_content powerful radar signal processing that enables bi-directional counting of moving objects in distances up to 10m. Objects can be categorized into up to 4 groups with speed and object size filters. Counter values are transmitted in regular intervals to the LNS (LoRaWAN® Network Server).
TCR GEN2 is a very versatile radar counting system. It enables various applications such as people counting, traffic statistics, use of sports facilities or even security applications.
TCR-Sxx types come with an integrated solar charging unit including tempered battery. The battery is used to backup up to 4 foggy days. The system can be installed very flexible on different locations including remote areas without any electricity.
**The TCR-SLE has an N-type antenna socket for mounting an external high gain antenna (included in delivery). **

Technical Specification
Note: This technical specs relates to Firmware 2.2
Side Mounting
When mounted sidewise, TCR can detect objects passing by in both directions
IMPORTANT: Minimum distance to street or path should be more than 50cm
IMPORTANT: If a bigger object hides a smaller object behind it, it will be counted as one.
Tilted
The device can be mounted at a pole at around 3m facing towards the street. Our pole mount MT80-15 (accessory) can be used for that. This is useful in public places to prevent damage from vandalism.
