As long as the radar was aligned properly when it was installed, you can always adjust the lanes later during traffic hours.
As a refresher, here are some basic rules for alignment:
- Ensure SpeedLane is level to the road. If road is level, the SpeedLane level sensor should read 0 degrees (or at most +/- 1 deg).
- Ensure SpeedLane is pointed across the road. You can use lane markers and check if they are parallel to the bottom or top of the photo in the camera snapshot.
- Ensure all lanes to be measured are visible in the camera snapshot. The red “+” (target cross hair) in the camera snapshot should be pointed anywhere between 1/3 and 1/2 of all the lanes to be measured.
If the setup is correct, the short video below shows you how to adjust the lanes using the traffic “peaks” in the range plot to adjust the lane boundaries for proper detection.
