[print this page] Why waste time setting traffic data parameters? With the Marksman 420 Tube Counter, you can set everything after completing the traffic survey!
Unlike other traffic tube counters, the Marksman 420 Tube Counter timestamps and logs every traffic event that's detected without you needing to configure it. So you can get on with new traffic data projects, confident that the Marksman 420 Tube Counter is completing the operation.
Many industry professionals favour Golden River's Marksman 420 Tube Counter for its simplicity and convenience. The M420 Tube Counter has a high visibility four line LCD display which makes control and automation a doddle. The display can also be used to confirm on site that the Tube Counter is working efficiently. You needn't even bring your PDA or laptop along for the test.
So how is data delivered through the tube counter?
To make this tube counter even more accessible and convenient, Golden River have developed the tube counter so that the data can either be downloaded directly into a laptop via a standard USB cable or downloaded onto a USB flash drive/memory stick. Then you simply walk away with your traffic data seconds later.
Longevity is another quality of the M420 Tube Counter. In order to ensure, long, hassle-free operations, the M420 Tube Counter contains a long life battery that's not only very light compared to traditional lead gel cell batteries, but will power the tube counter for up to 10 years before the tube counter needs to be replaced. Now that's cost effective.
Since the M420 Tube Counter has 8MB of memory built in, longer term traffic surveys and road surveys can also be executed. As an example, on a road with 10,000 vehicles passing through each day, the M420 Tube Counter has sufficient memory capacity to record data for over two months.
