In Summary:• System set-up configurations are all completed by making adjustments

through the GridSmart software, the always in focus camera requires no adjustment what-so-ever once the camera has been hung.

• The single camera and single cable connection design require less time in the intersection and less impact to traffic due to limited lane closures compared to other video detection systems.

• A complete Aldis GridSmart system can be installed and placed in control of an intersection in 3-4 hours from start to finish.
