Highways Radar - Installation Guide
Welcome
This purpose of this guide is to provide sufficient information to allow a ClearWay Radar to be physically installed, powered up and configured to correctly communicate over a network. This guide assumes that a suitably trained person has already performed a site survey and a suitable mounting location identified. The ClearWay Radar, together with the Navtech Radar software Witness, form the Navtech Radar Clearway Automatic Incident Detection system. Service and Maintenance procedures are covered in a separate manual.
CAUTION: Before performing any maintenance task ensure you are aware of Health & Safety procedures - see here: Health & Safety

Caution
The radar unit uses an SD Memory card for operational functions. These memory devices can suffer corruption if power is removed unexpectedly during key operational stages of use.
Users are warned that once power is applied to the unit it should not be removed within the first 2.5 minutes of power on, in order to allow the system to complete its boot cycle.
In addition, power to the unit should not be removed during or for 30 seconds after firmware upgrades or configuration changes made from within Vertex.
