    Setback is the horizontal distance from the edge of the 1st lane to the radar pole. What is the recommended setback?

    I have extremely short setback. Any mounting tips to improve performance?

    The recommended setback from the radar pole to the edge of the 1st lane to be measured is at least 20 feet.

    If you have less setback than this then one option is to mount the radar on the back of the pole as shown in the picture below.

    This is achieved as follows:

    • Loosen the 4 hex bolts that hold the tube clamps in place till they are loose and the tube rotates freely.
    • Holding the tube fixed, rotate the clamps a 180 degree so that they back of the mounting plate is now pointed on the opposite direction (now faces front- same direction as the camera).
    • Gently tighten the hex bolts to prevent the clamps from sliding around.
    • Mount the SpeedLane on the back of the pole. Do NOT flip the tube over as that will invert the camera image and the radar direction. The “Houston Radar SpeedLane Pro” on the camera sticker should still be upright.
