INSTALLATION GUIDE The following documentation covers the installation and configuration of your device. NOTE: The accuracy of the analytics algorithm may be affected by different environmental factors or inappropriate installation. Please follow the procedures in this installation guide. ACTi will not be held liable for inaccuracies resulting from the aforesaid causes. Part 1: Installation Specification 1. Model and counting width The counting width depends on the installation height.
INSTALLATION GUIDE 2. Package Contents Camera Mounting Base Quick Start Guide Screw Kit Quick Start Guide 3 www.acti.
INSTALLATION GUIDE Part 2: Installation Steps 1. Installation Please pay great attention to the mounting position. Inappropriate mounting position may cause loss of accuracy. The recommended mounting position is shown below: Vertical sketch map of mounting position Horizontal sketch map of mounting position Effect picture after installation Notice: Avoid the reflective environment (ex: Marble floor) 4 www.acti.
INSTALLATION GUIDE Make sure the camera is mounted vertically above the passenger flow (90°vertical by the ground), see picture below: Passenger flow（perpendicular to the door） For some scenarios where there are multiple cameras, mount the cameras according to two rules. Rule one: If there are turnstiles, each camera should be mounted to monitor certain turnstile 5 www.acti.
INSTALLATION GUIDE Rule two: If there is no turnstile, at first, mount the cameras in one line, and make sure the cameras have the same focal length. Then, keep a proper distance between each camera according to the overlap (see the yellow area below) of the adjacent two cameras’ counting width. The suggested overlapping length is between 0.2-0.5m.
INSTALLATION GUIDE Passenger flow in slant direction (wrong) Passenger flow in vertical up-and-down direction (right) 2) Passageway width should be within camera’s counting width 3) Avoid obstacles such glass door, shield door and turnstile that block the camera. For Each divided passageway, mount one camera right above. 7 www.acti.
INSTALLATION GUIDE 4) The camera should be mounted as close as possible to the passageway without obstacle. Remove the obstacle or adjust the camera mounting position if there is obstacle below the camera. Meanwhile, to prevent miscounting, if there’s a sliding door onsite, make sure the trajectory of the sliding door does not overlap the detection line.
INSTALLATION GUIDE 2. Configuration for single camera Step 1: Enable People Counting: check [Configuration]-[People Counting] -[Enable People Counting] Step 2: Calibration- Select the green box, drag it to proper location and click [Calibration]. After this, “Height” in the configuration page will refresh (close to the real height). A red box, which means the counting scope, and yellow detection line will turn up. The arrow shows the direction of entering.
INSTALLATION GUIDE Step 4: Save configuration and test. After configuration, click [save] and test. If miscounting happens, slightly adjust the detection line’s location and length. 3. Configuration for multiple cameras Step 1: Do configuration for each camera following the steps above Step 2: Move each camera’s detection line and connect the ends of adjacent lines. Some objects could be placed on the image border for reference. See picture below: Configuration of each detection line 10 www.acti.
INSTALLATION GUIDE Part 3: Application Scenario The application scenario and the mounting position are very important to the people counting accuracy. Usually the camera is mounted above the passageway and the door. Below shows the mounting position and configuration for two typical examples: Mounting position and configuration for supermarket Mounting position and configuration for subway 11 www.acti.
