Project planning
3.1.1 Planning steps
Plan the following before starting assembly and installation work:
 Determine measuring location(s).
 Select system components according to  p. 18, §2.2 meeting the conditions of use and
customer requirements.
 Define installation locations for sender/receiver units, MCU and junction boxes.
 Plan power supply.
3.1.2 Requirements for the installation location for the sender/receiver units
The master and slave sender/receiver units must be installed on opposite tunnel walls at a
sufficient height above the road surface, offset to the side (
 Fig. 12). The angle between
the measuring axis and tunnel axis should not be significantly greater than 60° (minimum
value 45°).
