Live Data Monitoring
Go outside to your TCR, connect the USB cable and start live measurements on site. While the device is connected to the PC open ppx.parametric.ch to access the online configuration tool.
Last Detection
Last Detection gives you an insight to the last radar measurement. This is what the radar “sees”.
| Category | Description |
|---|---|
| Distance to Object | LTRDist and RTLDist setting |
| Object Size | the length of all radar reflexions seen |
| Object Speed | the lateral velocity |
| Signal quality | should be 100% when the object is in field of view and not too near |
Counters
Counters is a table with all Categories an left / right counter values. Values are updated regularely
Adjust your values
The main challenge with the TCR devices is to find a suitable Distance/Sensitivity Setting.
If the sensitivity is to high, the object might blur and therefore gets too big (Size value) If the distance is incorrect the size get too big too.
With Autotune enabled the Radar Sensitivity will be controlled automatically. It’s comparable to the automatic exposure setting at a photo camera.
