TRANSPORTATION PAGE 5 OF 23
Peek Traffic Corporation ADR 1000Plus Traffic Data Recorder, or Equivalent
The ADR 1000Plus/8L recorder is a self-contained, microprocessor-based data collection recorder that
works with one or more inductance loops to detect the presence, speed and length of detected vehicles.
5.1 Recorders
Bids are requested on two (2) models of the ADR 1000+. The models are identical except the
second model includes a solar panel on the lid of the unit.
ADR 1000Plus/8L or equivalent – includes ADR 1000Plus case, display, motherboard, 8
loop module, battery. Does not include lock and key, wiring harness, solar panel on lid.
ADR 1000Plus/8L with solar lid or equivalent - includes ADR 1000Plus case, display,
motherboard, 8 loop module, battery, and solar panel on lid. Does not include lock and
key, wiring harness.
Vendor shall supply all necessary cables to connect field units to computers and battery charging
devices (if applicable). One charger shall be supplied for each field unit (if applicable). The price
for the traffic data recorder shall include the costs for all necessary cables.
5.2 Power Source and Requirements
If the recorder is configured such that it can be used outside of a count station cabinet, a single
6-volt 10 amp-hour sealed gel cell battery, rechargeable with 110-volt adapter and/or solar panel
shall provide power. The battery is required to maintain loop counter operations for a minimum
of 21 days in the field without recharging. Loss or disconnection of the battery shall not result in
loss of data, provided the battery change is accomplished within 1 minute. During extended field
operations, it shall be possible to exchange the battery without interrupting the study in process.
Each field unit must be equipped, or be capable of being equipped, with a solar panel to extend
battery life. The solar panel must be encased and completely environmentally sealed, in a high
impact resistant, UV stabilized plastic. The solar panel shall be mounted on top of the classifier
and recessed to protect the panel when units are stacked for transportation or storage.
Each recorder must be capable of being installed into a permanent count station cabinet. When
configured to be used in a cabinet, the battery shall be capable of being recharged from either a
110 volt power source or external solar panels.
Each recorder shall operate at temperatures between -40°F to +165°F (-40°C to +74°C).
The unit shall not be damaged by temperatures from -40°F to +165°F (-40°C to +74°C).
Surge panels shall be installed to protect hardware from power surges and transients.
5.3 Firmware
Any firmware upgrades required by the recorder manufacturer or due to units malfunctioning shall
be included at no additional cost. Firmware updates must be readily accomplished at the field level
(via local serial connection or remotely via modem), must be able to be performed without
disassembling or changing any hardware or chips in the field units, and must not require that units
be returned to the manufacturer.
The firmware shall allow the use of any optional sensors without needing to be changed.
