Brickstream® 3D Gen 2 Installation Guide

n If an integrated surface mount is used in drop ceilings, it may be safer to add some sort of
backing (metal t-bar or plywood) behind the ceiling tile to prevent the sensor from falling out, if
there is risk that the ceiling tile may get wet or rot.
n Be consistent in the way the sensors are oriented within a given project to minimize confusion
among the team members installing and implementing the sensors.
n Avoid sensor placement that includes swinging/glass doors in the sensor’s field of view.
n It is critical that there is a clear choke-point — a point which all traffic you wish to be measured is
forced through — to ensure accurate count data.
n The sensor installed at an entrance or exit for counting applications should be mounted so that
you can see the complete doorway from the lens. The coverage model should cover the entire
entryway corridor, following the rule of thumb for coverage of 20% door and 80% floor, as shown
in the following figures.
Installing the Sensor
The following steps provide the recommended work flow for the installation process. For details
pertinent to a specific circumstance, contact your Brickstream sales engineer or technical support.
Note: To ensure accurate calibration, allow the sensor to
acclimatize for at least one hour before installation.
Warning!
The 3D Gen 2 sensor is carefully calibrated during
manufacturing. If the sensor is dropped or heavily
impacted during installation, the calibration can be
compromised causing the sensor to require replacement.
Please handle these units carefully during installation to
avoid damage. We recommend leaving each sensor in its
box until it is attached to the installed mount.
1. Ensure that a site survey is performed by qualified technicians to determine where cables should
be dropped in consideration of lens coverage specifications. The site survey outcome provides
information to build a site design with a Specification document and Bill of Materials (BOM)
