FlexAP
The Sensys Networks VDS240 Wireless Vehicle Detection System
uses pavement-mounted magnetometer or MicroRadar® sensors
to detect the presence and movement of vehicles and bicycles. The
magnetometer and MicroRadar® sensors are wireless, transmitting their
detection data in real-time via low-power radio technology to a nearby
Sensys Networks access point that then relays the data to one or more
local or remote traffic management controllers and systems.
The Sensys Networks FlexAP is an intelligent device operating under
the Linux operating system that maintains two-way wireless links to
a vehicle detection system’s sensors and repeaters, establishes overall
time synchronization, transmits configuration commands and message
acknowledgements, and receives and processes data from the sensors.
The FlexAP then relays the sensor detection data to a roadside traffic
controller or remote server, traffic management system, or other vehicle
detection application.
The FlexAP is the second generation of Sensys Networks access points
and replaces the AP240. The FlexAP includes a higher sensitivity
radio for more robust wireless links and more processing and memory
capacity for additional applications. The FlexAP is housed in a robust
enclosure that provides excellent protection against the environment.
Types of FlexAPs. A FlexAP uses a single cable to support
10/100Base-T Ethernet communications and, in some versions,
serial communications to the contact closure card that furnishes the
interface to standard traffic controllers.
FLEX-AP-S, FLEX-AP-ES
• RJ45 port supports serial interface to Contact Closure card
(CC card) for relay of vehicle detection output via the EX cards or
FlexConnect SDLC link
• Supports Ethernet interface for field configuration (via Sensys
Networks AccessBox)
• Statistics processing of sensor detection data only in FLEX-AP-ES
• 48VDC power input from CC card via RJ45 port
FLEX-AP-D, FLEX-AP-ED
• RJ45 port supports Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) interface for relay
of detection data directly to controller
• Supports field configuration over the Ethernet interface
• Statistics processing of sensor detection data only in FLEX-AP-ED
• 48VDC power input from PoE interface (adapter required)
