Traffic Video Configuration Tool
The Field Video Monitor (FVM) from Peek Traffic
is a flat panel video monitor in a field carry case
enclosure. It has video and power connections
via a pair of pass-through MIL3102 connectors.
This allows it to be plugged in the middle of a
video line, for instance by a field technician
working in a bucket performing a traffic detection
camera installation or maintenance. The FVM
also includes switches that can be used to control
the power focus and power zoom lens
capabilities of the UPK535 camera assembly.
In addition to the MilSpec pass-through video
connections, the monitor also includes a BNC
type “Video In” connector on the inside control
panel.
Using this connector, either a BNC cable, or a
BNC to RCA adapter/cable can be used to plug
other NTSC video sources directly into the Field
Video Monitor. This allows the FVM to be used
as a video monitor to view the Video Out output
of UniTrak detector cards, VideoTrak units, VHS
or DVD recorders, or any other standard video
source. As an example, this will allow a
technician to configure the detection zones and
zone-to-output mappings of a UniTrak detector,
without the need for a separate, bulky video
monitor or a fragile notebook computer.
Since the FVM has pass-through connections for
video and power, it is possible for a person in a
bucket to adjust the camera while another
person on the ground is also viewing the video
from the camera by attaching a monitor directly
into the detection hardware. The Field Video
Monitor greatly eases field operations when
setting up video traffic detection.
The Field Video Monitor can be ordered from
your local Peek video distributor. The part
number is 82-1673.
