Radar Detection Area Setup
...
| Info |
|---|
When using this global setup option be aware that it will replace any existing detection area and tracking configuration setups you have on your radars. |
...
Select the site in the Configuration Tree, then select Radar Detection Area Setup in the Configuration Panel.
...
...
The Radar Detection Area Setup window will open. Choose a Tracking Parameter to apply to your Detection Area from the drop down list, then select Finish.
...
...
Your Detection Area has now been assigned the selected Tracking Parameters. Tracking Parameters determine how and what the tracker detects and tracks. Learn more about Tracking Parameters here.

Learn how to manually assign Tracking Parameters on the Detection Areas page. |
Assigning a Detection Area to Selected Radar
This approach allows you to assign your detection area to only the radar you want and also allows you to select different tracking parameters for each radar.1.
Long left click the detection area to open the Radial Menu and select the Radar Parameter Modification:
...
...
This will open the Radar Parameter Modification screen. This will display a list of all available radar:
...
...
Select the desired Tracking Parameter from the drop down list for each radar and select Apply.
...
| Info |
|---|
If you do not select a tracking parameter then the detection area will not be assigned to that radar. This allows you to choose which radars you want to configure for the selected detection area. If you wish to remove this detection area from a previously configured radar then select the remove (X) button. |

If your radar are not aligned, you will need to align the radar data to your Background Image before you start the fine tuning process. |
1. To fine tune an area:2.
Within the map or in the radar group select the relevant Radar.
...
...
Within the Selected Entity Info Panel, select Radar Data, to overlay the live radar signal within the site map. It is possible to simultaneously overlay the output from two or more radar sensors. However, this uses a sizeable amount of processing power so it is advisable to show no more than two or three sensor overlays at a time.
...
...
Select the source Raw.
...
...
Ensure you can see the raw data where you want to apply the detection on the map.
...
Click on the Detection Area to select it, then configure it using the Creating and Editing. Use the Raw Data to shape the Detection Area around visible objects and boundaries. In this example the detection areas is being redrawn around the tree line to ensure we achieve maximum detection but without extending the area into the trees where the radar cannot see.
...
...
When the area has been fine tuned, select Save to store the new area shape.
| Info |
|---|
For parts of the area that are further from the radar sensor, any given object will produce a wider trace due to the beamwidth of the sensor. Therefore, it may be necessary to widen the area as it stretches away further from the sensor. |
