The EMTRAC system consists of three major components—the vehicle equipment, intersection equipment, and the software used to configure and monitor the system.
EMTRAC Vehicle Equipment
Vehicles equipped with the EMTRAC system carry a compact, yet rugged, Vehicle Computer Unit (VCU), which is connected to an omni-directional antenna that receives location data and transmits priority requests to intersections through secure radio. The positioning functionality is able to track vehicle location with precision accuracy, and the superior radio range allows reliable intersection response—even in adverse conditions.
EMTRAC Intersection Equipment
Intersections equipped with the EMTRAC system have an omni-directional antenna mounted on either a signal pole or on the traffic cabinet and a Priority Detector unit, which plugs into the traffic cabinet detector rack or may be housed in a shelf-mount cabinet. The detector unit interfaces with any NEMA or 170-Type System.
EMTRAC Software
The Systems Manager software is used to set up the vehicles, intersections, and intersection-approach zones for the EMTRAC system. The software maintains a database of this information and graphically displays the streets and approach zones for each intersection in a map format. Systems Manager is also capable of configuring required operating information into each piece of equipment and obtaining stored operation history from each device. The optional EMTRAC Central Monitor software provides a real-time display of vehicle, intersection, and detection-zone activity.
