TRAFx Multi-Counter

TRAFx Versatility

One TRAFx counter type can often function as or be converted to another TRAFx counter type. The details regarding this “multi-counter” flexibility are presented below.

	Counter	Sensor type(s)	Sensor location
Family 1	Vehicle, OHV and Mountain Bike	Magnetic	Internal (inside the field case)
Family 2	Infrared, Pressure Pad	Infrared, pressure	External


Family 1 Counters Family 1 includes the TRAFx Vehicle, OHV and Mountain Bike Counter. All Family 1 counters use the same magnetic sensor; software differs All Family 1 counters can be easily configured by the user to operate as other Family 1 members by changing the mode.
	For example, the operating mode of the TRAFx Vehicle Counter can be changed to mountain bike
A Family 1 counter can be converted to a Family 2 counter by ordering a conversion kit
	For example, a TRAFx Vehicle Counter can be converted to the TRAFx Infrared Trail Counter by purchasing a conversion kit. The conversion process only takes a few minutes; it is easy to convert back again.

Family 2 Counters Includes the TRAFx Infrared and Pressure Pad Counter. All Family 2 counters use an external sensor (e.g., infrared, pressure). Any Family 2 counter can operate as any other Family 2 counter by purchasing and attaching the appropriate external sensor.
	For example, a pressure pad can be connected to the TRAFx Infrared Trail Counter, resulting in the TRAFx Pressure Pad Counter.

The internal magnetic sensor that Family 1 counters have can only be added to a Family 2 counter at the TRAFx factory.
	For example, TRAFx can add a magnetic sensor to the TRAFx Infrared Trail Counter, allowing the user the option of using it as a TRAFx Vehicle Counter.
