RECOMMENDED CAMERA: HikVision or similar
Any modern IP, Wireless or USB camera works with SpeedCam. We recommend HD resolution or better (1920x1080 pixels). We recommend 30 fps (frames per second) or better. An electronic shutters is great if the camera shall capture license plates. It prevents image smearing for fast vehicles just as a DSLR shutter would.

  2. Go to the Camera tab;
  3. Choose and setup the camera.

  2. Move the sensors into the required position using the mouse;
  3. Specify the distance between Red and Green sensors in the Distance field in the tabLanes of panel Lanes and privacy masks;

Positioning of the sensor is available only if the camera is connected (the image from the camera is displayed). The program doesn’t measure the speed during the camera setup process.

  1. Ajdust the sensor sensitivity in the following way:
    • If there is no movement in the sensors zone, their signals (colored lines) should be below the activation level (white line);
    • If there is a moving object in the sensor zone, its signal should be above the activation level.
