Q10 Vehicle Counter
with Multi Line Display & PC Integration
Q10 Vehicle Counters are simple to install and provide a system to record data based on the number of people that pass by the selected sensor. These systems use a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) to monitor and record data generated from a variety of sensors. This data can be used to generate reports and display statistical information on a computer. With a variety of sensors available almost any people counting application for can be accommodated. The SenSource Q10-ALPHA Controller/Display & People Counter is one the most advanced yet cost effective systems available on the market today. Monitor traffic and occupancy levels of up to 19 entrances with non-directional counting (counts up regardless of direction) or 9 entrances with directional counting (counts up when people enter and down when people exit). Control up to 9 external devices based on timing, counts, or external sensor input (control examples include: lighting systems, flashing signs, digital displays - activate a buzzer or light to warn when capacity is reached). With features not available in systems much more expensive, the Q10-ALPHA system will surpass all your expectations.
TC-ALPHA Features:
- Directional sensing reflects total number of people that have entered the monitored area/s (up to 19) and current population
- Optional PC interface and Software for data logging reporting
- Reports can be exported in CSV or MS-Excel formats and saved to your hard drive or emailed automatically.
- Modular system accommodates a variety of sensors and allows sensor and display to be mounted together or separately
- Battery Backup (counts are not lost if power is lost)
- Multi-Key front panel reset prevents tampering and accidental reset
- Safe low voltage 24V DC (plug-in supply included with 10 ft cable)
- Select a variety of sensors to fit your application
- Outputs can control external devices such as warning lights and/or beepers to indicate when critical population level is reached

Q10 Sensor Systems
Q10 system sensors are categorized by either non-directional (counts up regardless of traffic direction) and directional (counts incoming and outgoing traffic separately). The benefit of having non-directional systems is that it allows you to monitor more entry/exit points per controller and gives you the ability to monitor all entry/exit points from a single location. The benefit of having a directional system is that it allows you to monitor not only incoming and outgoing counts for each entry/exit, you can also view the current population of your facility.
