PAWS Enforcement Module™ Installation and Operation This document describes how to correctly install and operate a PAWS Enforcement Module™. The PAWS Enforcement module is used with the PAWS SIDEKICK™ and the PAWS ™ vehicle tracking unit to verify vehicle occupancy for HOT lane use. These instructions cover what you need to know to get your PAWS Enforcement module up and running: • Battery Installation • Enforcement Module Installation • Operation About the PAWS Enforcement Module When an Enforcement Module detects a vehicle's PAWS device, it will display the vehicle information including make, model, color, and license plate, along with the occupancy setting. If the buzzer switch is on, the EM signals a read with an audible tone. You can hear the tone directly from the device or through headphones, if connected. PAWS ENFORCEMENT MODULE Installation and Operation v1.0 | Publication Number 16-0015-001 Page 1 of 6 PAWS Enforcement Module Kit The kit includes the following items: • PAWS™ Enforcement Module • Suction cups • Clip • Handlebar clamp You need to provide two (2) AA batteries for operation. Non-rechargeable lithium batteries are recommended for maximum life. Some high capacity alkaline batteries and rechargeable batteries will also be sufficient but have shorter lifetimes. Battery Installation The Enforcement Module battery compartment is on the back of the device. Battery compartment The battery cover slides out, revealing the location for two side-by-side batteries. The correct battery polarity is shown inside the compartment. Door (removed) Enforcement Module Installation You can operate the EM as a handheld unit. With the optional parts included in the kit, you can also attach the unit to: • A vehicle visor with a clip; • Inside the windshield with either double-sided adhesive or suction cups; or • Motorcycle handlebars with a clamp. PAWS ENFORCEMENT MODULE Installation and Operation v1.0 | Publication Number 16-0015-001 Page 2 of 6 Operation The EM emits a radio wave straight out from the back of the unit, so you aim it by holding the unit with the display in view, then turning so that the target car is directly ahead. However, the radio wave is not narrow like a laser beam--it has a definable width that allows it to detect objects away from the direct line of sight as well. While you may use any convenient hand position that does not block the display, we recommend that you hold onto the left side of the unit, so as not to interfere with the display. Switch Functions Hold here POWER OFF/ON: Power for the device. AUDIO: The headphone jack allows you to plug in an optional set of headphones to listen to the buzzer. Right Side View of Enforcement Module BUZZER OFF/ON: Disables/enables the audible sound generated when a PAWS is detected. If the buzzer switch is enabled at power up, a beep will also sound about 5 seconds after power on, lasting about 1 second. If you use the headphone jack next to this switch, it disables the normal audio. We strongly recommended using headphones with volume control. RANGE • Long: For vehicles from approximately 100 to 300 feet away. • Medium: For vehicles from approximately 30 to 100 feet away. • Short: For vehicles up to approximately 30 feet away. Note: Range distances are approximate. Top View of Enforcement Module LOCK/READ • Read mode: The EM continues to read PAWS devices in vehicles. • Lock mode: The EM stops reading, locks the display and saves the last three vehicles. This setting is the same as putting the unit “on hold.” RECALL You can view the last three vehicles read by moving the switch to 1, 2, or 3, with 1 being the most recent. PAWS ENFORCEMENT MODULE Installation and Operation v1.0 | Publication Number 16-0015-001 Page 3 of 6 Power On the Enforcement Module Press the POWER switch on the right side of the unit to the ON position. The Enforcement Module display shows this message on power-up: PAWS ENFORCEMENT Ver XX.XX …along with a version number, followed by another message showing the Lock/Read setting (see next section). PAWS ENFORCEMENT Ver XX.XX VEHICLE DATA UNLOCKED Next, the EM displays the LOCK or READ setting, depending on how this switch is set. …or VEHICLE DATA LOCKED PAWS ENFORCEMENT MODULE Installation and Operation v1.0 | Publication Number 16-0015-001 Page 4 of 6 Read a Vehicle Get into position for a clear sight of traffic and optimal EM read range. Set Range based on distance to traffic. • Long: Vehicles 100 to 300 feet away • Medium: Vehicles 30 to 100 feet away • Short: Vehicles 30 feet away Make sure the LOCK/READ switch is set to READ. In READ mode, the EM reads PAWS Sidekick devices automatically—you do not have to press any other switches. Watch the EM display. As it reads, the EM displays the vehicle information and number of passengers. In the example at right, the driver has set the number of passengers to 3. 056 LHR NM BLUE F150 The number of passengers shown on the display should coincide with the number of passengers visible in the vehicle. If not, switch the EM to LOCK mode to capture the reading. If necessary, recall the reading in question (refer to next section). Lock & Recall Vehicle Reading When you see a discrepancy between the EM reading and the actual passenger count in a vehicle, click the LOCK/READ switch to LOCK. With the EM in Lock mode, you can step through the last 3 vehicle readings to pull up the one with the questionable passenger setting. PAWS ENFORCEMENT MODULE Installation and Operation v1.0 | Publication Number 16-0015-001 Page 5 of 6 Move the RECALL switch to 1, 2, or 3 until the reading in question appears. With this information you are ready to follow enforcement procedures.
