MAINTENANCE / INSTALL & TROUBLESHOOT GUIDE FOR MVDS

Transcription

1 MAINTENANCE / INSTALL & TROUBLESHOOT GUIDE FOR MVDS RTMS Detector (MVDS): The non-intrusive radar-based RTMS (Remote Traffic Microwave Sensor) G4 is an advanced sensor for the detection and measurement of traffic on roadways. The RTMS G4 is small, roadside pole-mounted radar operating in the microwave band. Simultaneously, the sensor provides per-lane presence as well as volume, occupancy, speed and classification information in up to 12 user-defined detection zones. Output information is provided to existing controllers via contact closure and to other computing systems by serial or IP communication port or by an optional radio modem. A single RTMS can replace multiple inductive loop detectors and the attendant controller

2 WORK ORDERS: As Operators perform daily device checks, issues are entered in MOMS. Field Technicians retrieve the time stamped work orders and are required to acknowledge within one (1) hour of input. The repair is required to be completed within Forty eight (48) hours of input, per our contract with TransCore. Technician will log on to Moms, proceed to Open Work Orders. Site Cabinet Before troubleshooting, you will need to adjust the adapter settings in your computer, to attach to the cabinet network device in that zone.

3 At cabinet: Connect Ethernet cable to Ethernet switch Click internet access icon on tool bar to connect to server Right click, open network sharing center Change Adapter settings on left Click local area network Click Internet Protocol version 4( TCP/IPv4) Click Use the following IP address Enter your computers IP address Use Device Checklist to get info ( IP addresses, and Zones) Change third digit in IP address and Default gateway, to match zone Example: My IP address: ( ) Subnet mask: ( ) Always use same Default Gateway: ( ) Click ok / Ready to access device for the zone needed Open G4 Software: Call TMC to take MVDS out of service (to allow TCP/IP connection) Click on communication Click pc serial, choose PC TCP/IP from drop down menu Enter IP address of terminal server, for the site (see device checklist) Enter remote port # (see device checklist) of problem detector Click OK Click single RTMS to access device Click on Normal. The Device is ready to calibrate

4 Next step is to calibrate the MVDS: Click on Wizard Setup, let run until all lanes are detected/ once all lanes are detected Wizard will close automatically (add 1 minute if needed) Click Manual Settings Click Zones Number, and adjust lane direction as needed per screen instructions Click OK Click Exit once Click Speed Calibration / enter speed limit for location of mvds Click Start / let run until all lanes reach 100%/ Exit Exit & Click calibration. Enter speed limit for the area in each lane shown (set inner lanes a few mhp faster than outer lanes) Click Start / let run till completed (add time if still needed) Exit & Click Statistics, check box to note calibrated speeds, then Exit Click Calibration again, choose Manual Settings, adjust lane speeds one at a time using up and down arrows for lane change, and left and right arrows for speed change Exit & Click Statistics again / check box to show traffic for current speeds, if speeds look good, then exit, If not, repeat steps above. Click Manual Settings again Click Data, change from Normal to Polled status (allows Sunguide to read) Click Exit, then Exit Program, to complete process

5 TROUBLESHOOT: Field troubleshooting of the RTMS consists mainly of ensuring that the unit is powered and Communicating. Communication with the sensor in Normal mode is confirmed by presence of The moving Vehicles and menu button, and by the flashing of the indicator in the lower right Corner of the screen, denoting data transmission activity. The table below outlines symptoms And suggested action in troubleshooting power and communication problems:

Click options, and disable each. Connect an ethernet cable from Laptop to Terminal Server. Click on Portvision desktop icon to open. Click (scan for devices) Terminal Server will appear. Click on the newly found device. The Terminal Server will open and show its default IP address. Change the default IP address to the proper IP for your location. (See device IP sheet) Enter the new IP address, subnet, and gateway for your location. Click Apply, then Reboot and exit. Reopen Portvision on desktop. Click (scan for devices). Click on the device found, and the Terminal Server will open with the new IP address. Can now access the Terminal Server for programming.
