1.2 VPC Introduction
VPC is a compact, automatic, non-contact high-tech intelligent vision product which is based on binocular
stereoscopic vision technology. It has been designed for people counting in the door/ways of buses, trains and
buildings. VPC can distinguish the number of people in/out or stays in a closed area.
This passenger counter can be easily adapted to a variety of different application requirements and installation
environment.
Due to the split design and complete installation accessories, making it easy to install, maintain, and debug.
The Counter and BSC could be quickly and easily installed in the door, ceiling, bus etc.
VPC could connect two StereoCamera, support detect two doors or two channels in two-way (in and out)
people counting in simultaneously.
VPC support many VPCs collaborative work to Detect more doors or channels via Ethernet or direct connect
network cable.
VPC could detect 120cm-1020cm wide gate by StereoCamera can be arranged in a straight line.
StereoCamera gets the left and right two images of one scenarios in real time. Because the Infrared-LED inside,
VPC can work in any type of lighting environments or even full darkness.
StereoCamera should be installed perpendicular to the ground. To achieve this goal, our StereoCamera have
two fixed bracket, were able to provide bi-directional 0-60 degree and 90 degree adjustment, and each
minimum adjustment angle is 2.5 degrees. Due to the design of the adjustable stand allows StereoCameras can
be installed and fixed in position and not vertical surfaces.
The VPC judge the objects moved direction (in/out) under the Camera by detecting and analysing the height,
shape, direction of objects and record the in/out information in real time. The records can be saved in the
recordable compact storage of VPC then can be downloaded and used for report analysis.
Binuclear Stereo Vision is an important technology of machine vision. It is based on the parallax theory and
using imaging equipment from different location to obtain two images of tested object, then compute image
corresponding points between position deviation to obtain object three-dimensional geometrical information.
Combine images obtained by two eyes and observe the differences between them, we can obtain significant
feeling of depth and establish corresponding relations among the characteristics. The two images that have
differences in the distance, we call the Disparity image. Stereo Video vision has higher precision than
monocular two-dimensional video analysis.

2. Lifting Bracket
VPC offer lifting bracket (as below), which can fix any standard Camera bracket. It can adjust angel, to make it
perpendicular to the ground as possible.
Figure 26. Camera Adjustable lifting bracket map

3.1.2 VPC Connecting Other Devices
In order to monitor in real time the boarding and exiting of passengers, VPC can connect with other devices on
the vehicle through the RS485/232 interface and transmit data real time. For example on embedded DVR or
GPS/GPRS, VPC by GPRS/3G upload passenger real-time data to the background, make it easier to see.
VPC integrates with isolated digital I/O interfaces can get signals about the door switches status in order to
guarantee that VPC can count when the door is open. For example: VPC can stop counting when the door is
closed.
Please see the 5 Application chapter.
3.1.3 Avoid Ground Reflections
The VPC passenger detecting and statistic function sare based on Binocular Stereo Vision technical, in other
words, it measures the objects height present in the view fields by two Cameras, and tracking .It performances
robust and excellent precision against changes in the illumination.
However, highly reflective, geometric structures situate do nor near the floor, such as the metallic parts for
door operating mechanisms, which cause extreme pattern so flight and darkness when
illuminatedbystronglight(e.g.directsunlightordirectionalhalogenlighting)couldleadtoflaweddistance
measurements.
To avoid performance degradation due to the se effects, high reflective material surfaces should be avoided as
much as possible in the area within the ameras view, also lighting in the gate area should be diffused and not
spot-like. The floor reflective in dex should be kept below 0.7(e.g. white acrylic paint) and should not display
regular geometric repetitive patterns. Metallic or shiny objects (such as door handles, bars, glass or protective
glossy strips)should not cover a significant part of the visual field. If this is not avoidable, the reflectivity of
these items should be reduced by means of non-reflective materials.
Figure 27. Typical ground reflection picture
3.2 Installation Steps
3.2.1 Installation Plan
3.2.1.1 Find Place
Plan and choose place of Camera and place of Counter.

1. Camera install above the door, straight-line distance from the door 20-50cm.
2. Counter can be installed: above the front door, the top of the windshield, inside the dashboard, the
equipment boxes behind the driver if have it, or other place.

Strong Suggestions: Fill in the file <<VPC Measurement of Installation Environment>> and send us, we will give
the best installation position.
3.2.1.2 Get Power
One unit VPC only the Counter need input power supply of the DC24V in bus, StereoCamera is powered by
Counter (DC12V only). Counter does not necessarily need to connect the ACC signal, it may connect the ACC
level signal input to the Counter GPI, as the external signal detection, when needs the ACC signal. Choosing
getting power location is based on the customer's application, it is recommended to use the first method to
take power:
1. Get power behind the battery switch of the bus, VPC will power off after bus driver manually turn off the
whole bus power daily.
2. Get power before battery switch, VPC is power on 7*24 hours.
3. Get power from other places suited to user demand.
3.2.1.3 Get Door Status
Ask and get help from the bus repair staff, find the voltage level signal line of the door valve (generally under
the door). Please see the Connection Door Status in this article.
If the bus door appeared in the image, then we need connect the door status signal to the Counter, excluding
the impact of closing the door on the counting accuracy.
Possible generating door status signal place:
Limit switch detect swing arm of the door valve, with the door open and closed state corresponding to
the occurrence of opened and closed.
Interior lights near the door, with the door opening and closing state and the corresponding light and off.
On the dashboard, door status lamp, with doors opening and closing state and the corresponding light
and off.
Door switch for driver is a button (press down will bounce back) or switch (press down not bounce back),
if the button is generated is a pulse signal, and if the switch, the resulting sustained an electrical or not
electrical signal.
If could not find a suitable door status signal in bus, you may install a limit switch to detect the door
status.
Observe and estimate the signal source selected at the door open, closed when the signal changes
corresponding to what may be the way: SWITCH MODE, LEVEL MODE, PULSE MODE.

the middle, and mark the installation "L" bracket screw holes before mounting holes. Right lens is away from
the light-sensitive side.
3.2.3.2 Installation Height and Verticality
Installation height is located 230cm from the ground (the first step or the second step, using 4mm Lens). In this
position, the detection area is between 120cm-200cm from ground (if the bus is the distance from the first
step). The blind area is between 25cm-40cm from camera glass.
Camera must install vertically, perpendicular to the ground away from the axis preferably less than plus or
minus 5 degrees, the maximum should not exceed 15 degrees. The following diagram shows:
Figure 38. Installation Height Picture
3.2.3.3 Drilling Holes Fix
Choose the right opening tool to open hole, fix Camera according to the following installation method.
3.2.3.4 L Bracket Installation
There are four screw holes in Cameras sides for using screws to fix the Camera on the ceilings, we suggest
using 4pcs M3 screws with washer. Between the "L" shaped bracket and the camera body with two M3 screws
fixed together.

Figure 39. Camera Fix Diagram
Figure 40. Camera Adjustable L Bracket

The L bracket could adjust 0-60 degrees in two-way, the minimum is 2.5 degrees.
Warning:
Please dont open the Camera, otherwise it would cause the two Cameras physical location
changed, once moved (destroyed) the relative relationship between the two Cameras, there will
be an inaccurate count, and users cannot repair it by themselves so you have to send it back to
factory.

Figure 42. The installation imaging drawings of two-steps-door & four-steps-door

3.2.3.5 Top Bracket
There are 4 small screws on the back of Camera, using the M2.5*5 screws are equipped with lifting
attachments, using ordinary Camera bracket or self-made Suspender, fixed the lifting Camera, as in the glass
door or on the ceiling. You can use lead waterproof joint, as below:

Figure 43. Top Bracket Installation Figure
Important Note:
Once the Video Camera installed, no longer have any movement Video Camera does not
require any additional equipment or glass shield to protect the lens and infrared light. If you
want to install external shell, such as explosion-proof housing, ensure the 400-900nm visible
light can through the shell.
3.2.4 Installation Counter
Counter can be mounted inside the top of the front.
Or mounted inside the dashboard, and the vehicle easy to connect a DVR or GPS device.

3.2.5 Connection Door Status
It is a GPI function that using GPI detecting the door status signal, the ways as following:
3.2.5.1 LEVEL MODE
Recommended use high and low voltage level signal input: one door use one signal line (high/low level).
3.2.5.1.1 Explanations
Vehicle doors are generally true state detection mechanism, the signal may be sent to the vehicle CAN bus
door status signals to locate and measure their true status:
Door is opened, the line keeps has voltage (or no voltage)
Door is closed, the line keeps without voltage (or has voltage)
3.2.5.1.2 Measurements
Observation of door opening / closing, if there is a Limit Switch triggered by door valve driving arm, and then
along the limit-switch lines, try to find the output signal lines, then:
Measuring these lines whether there is voltage or not while the door open or closed.
Or using a Multimeter to measure one line with the ground line happen ON and OFF.
Or using test pencil measured these lines whether there is a pulse signal.
Figure 44. Automotive Test Pencil and Multimeter

Automotive test pencil ground wire connect to the vehicle ground (all buses common ground are
same), using the pencil to measure each line whether has voltage.

With a multimeter DC voltage profile 200V range (greater than or circuit voltage range), measure
these lines has voltage or not.
Need to repeatedly let the door open and close several times. If the line voltage with the door
opening and closing change, then this line is available for high/low level mode for Counter GPI.
Door Opened Door Closed

Result 1 The line keeps high voltage(8V) The line keeps low (no) voltage(3V)
Result 2 The line keeps low (no) voltage(3V) The line keeps high voltage(8V)
The figure is at the top of the door limit switch can detect the door opening and closing status:
Figure 45. Door Valve Drive this Limit Switch
Find the limit switch is connected to the line where that equipment, measuring lines of this device, the red
circle in the figure below the line ahead of all the measuring probe signal line lighting or three tables, to find
such a signal line:

Door is opened, the line keeps has voltage (or no voltage)
Door is closed, the line keeps without voltage (or has voltage)
3.2.5.1.3 Connection Signal Wire

Front door of high / low signal line is connected to the Counter GPI1
Backdoor high / low signal line is connected to the Counter GPI2
Because the whole bus Ground Lines are interlinked and can only take high / low that line, the ground could
not connect. As shown below:
3.2.5.1.4 Client Settings

Set as the following diagram in the IO/Record tab in VPC-Client.exe:

OR
Figure 46. GPI Settings

3.2.5.1.5 Verification
The settings are correct, press the door button a few times on the dashboard, with the VPC-Client software
refresh the image, to see whether change OSD door status, or download records, if there are some door
open or closed records, it shows connections and settings are all properly.
3.2.5.2 SWITCH MODE
Counter access door status is a "SWITCH", the opening and closing of the door, a switch can detect the state of
occurrence of car "open" and "closed" changes, And one door corresponding to one "SWITCH", you can use
the Switch-Mode access GPI5 and GPI6.
Figure 47. External Input Switch-Mode Signal

Note:
There is no voltage between the Switch two ends and the Ground in bus.
Moreover, the Switch works well while the Switch two ends both have been connected to the Ground Line
in bus, this connection does not affect the function and application of the switch.
With a multimeter to measure this "switch" ohm on both sides, whether there will be "opened/ closed"
situation and, if present, indicates it is Switch Mode.

Result 1 The SWITCH keeps closed The SWITCH keeps opened
Result 2 The SWITCH keeps opened The SWITCH keeps closed

Front door: both ends of the "SWITCH", and a termination of Counter GPI5, a termination Counter ground.
Backdoor: both ends of the " SWITCH ", and a termination of Counter GPI6, a termination Counter ground.
GPI type according to the factory configuration, determine the type GPI5 and GPI6 level mode or switch mode.
As shown below:

Set as the following diagram in the IO/Record tab in VPC-Client.exe:

Important Note:
Not recommended for use in the following ways:

This requires the use of a pulse signal way, but, VPC every time regardless of the current state
of the door after the restart, VPC default to open the door until the door the next pulse, then
VPC only knows the correct door status.

3.2.6 GPO Output
Counter has 0-4 relays GPO according to factory configuration. Each relay output has COM, NC, NO three lines
(Common; Normal Closed; Normal Opened). Principle relationship three line diagram below:
Figure 50. COM, NC, NO Relationship Diagram

When power off the Counter, the resistance between the COM and NC should be 0 ohm (connected), the COM
and NO gigantic(disconnected).
The relay can trigger a variety of circumstances, such as IN, OUT, Overload etc.
When input voltage to COM, Counter will change status after triggered or untriggered as following:

VPC-Client software is a tool for setting and debug the VPC. It would not connect to VPC anymore after
finished settings.
You need to use a video cable and power wires to connect correctly the cameras and Counter when you use
VPC-Client to operate the VPC. Then, you may access the VPC via correct IP address, set VPC parameters, and
let VPC working.
4.1 Counter Working Mode

Counter working mode is divided into:
1. Default Mode: Counter independent normal working condition, no client connections.
2. Debug Mode: When the VPC-Client connection and commissioning.
3. Backup System Mode: work status after Counter running backup firmware system, generally only used to
upgrade the main system.
Note:
Debug mode causes Counter run more slowly, maybe appear missing counting phenomenon
(especially fast movement of people), upon completion of settings, be sure to switch to the
default mode of operation (Shutdown the VPC-Client).
4.1.1 Default Mode
VPC default work mode, it is to point to VPC has normal start standby and dont connect with client software,
but can connect center server (software), at this time, VPC processing speed is fastest and the accuracy is
highest .There is someone that is coming or leave the detection area, VPC internal will save a number of
records, including record number, date, time, type, and direction; The records can be saved in the recordable
compact storage of VPC via FIFO storage method then can be downloaded though network (TCP/IP)USB
RS-485 interfacing.
Important Notice:
After power, VPC automatically initialize, begin to work automatically after successful start, even
if not connected to any external computer. This is very useful for the place where the computer
cannot be installed such as public transport bus board. Users can use a U disk or notebook
computer to connect the VPC after work (the bus is not driving) to download records and set the
counter. Or use homemade network devices or serial devices to get records and set VPC.
We offer a central server software (or the record collection software that user's own developed)
must have been turned on and stay connected with Counter to receive every real-time records
data from every VPC.

4.1.2 Debug Model
In this mode, the client software can connect VPC, start the real-time view video function to display real-time
image, and can draw count information people in/out on an image of channel 1/2 n in real time, easy to
observe and debug counts effect.
Important Notice:
VPC is the default mode when you start VPC normally to enter the normal counting state.
Therefore, in order to obtain accurate results of counting, VPC must be set correctly. That is, in
the each process of save background (about 10 seconds), it cannot allow any moving objects and
people in Video vision camera, that is to keep the true "background 3D image." Each time the
camera moves, the corresponding channel must be re-learning background.
4.1.3 Backup System
When the main system is damaged, maybe lost power in upgrading period, the Counter could not start and
you could not login and ping it, you need to start the backup system to upgrade the main system; Referring to
start into the backup system backup system;
In this mode, the Counter can not be counted or image detection parameters to operate, user can update their
main system firmware, get Counter date&time. Once the main system firmware update successfully in this
mode, power off again, restart Counter, you can enter the main system default mode.
4.2 Counter LED and Sound Feedback

Counter will feedback with buzz sounds and LED blinking when using VPC-Client or U Disk operating.

4.3 VPC-Client Introduction
4.3.1 Introduction
SF-VPC-Client.exe is a green free graphical installation interface (GUI) for Windows client, support
Windows2000 /Windows XP / Windows 2003/Vista/Win7/Win8/Win10. The program will take VPC as a server
and VPC-Client as client software, the client program does not require additional software environment to
support. The program can connect a number of VPC through TCP/IP (LAN or the Internet straight line) to can
be viewed and set.
4.3.2 Upgrade Client Software
When you get a new software program, can override or upgrade installed on your computer. Detailed upgrade
steps please see related content in the VPC-Client Operation Steps.
4.4 VPC-Client Operation Steps

The followings are a list of the software used steps when working with the VPC
1. Connect the hardware correctly

2. Install the client software
3. VPC is power on and enter standby correctly
4. Run VPC-Client.exe on the computer
5. Set parameter correctly
6. Exit
4.4.1 Connection Hardware Correctly
According to the Chapter 3.2.2.1 Connection Diagram of the hardware connection requirements and
instructions, properly connected VPC with the equipment.
Note: VPC and computer connection instructions

There are two connection types, one is network cable directly connected, one is connected via a switch/router
in the LAN.
Take a piece of RJ-45 cables (direct connection with VPC computer using a network cable, if connected through
a switch, you can directly use the straight line), using this network cable to link your computer's network card
and VPC (LAN) port, in accordance with the following methods to change the computer's and VPCs IP address.
Important Notice:
VPC's IP network dont support routing feature for the time being, communication between one or
more VPC and your computer must only be within the same local area network, to ensure normal
communication.
Note: Ethernet network lines production methods:
Materials and tools:
1. A piece of twisted pair cable (8 core, the length can be determined according to the actual needs, within the
effective transmission distance 100m), two standard RJ45 Crystal head, a RJ45 special line pressing tools
2. Advice: Prepare a network testing tool that you can make a test on network cable you made.
PIN definition:
Produce network lines meets the requirements according circumstance, there are two circumstances as the
following:
1. VPC connect the router or network switch HUB or other network devices, making network connections
according to the below left figure.
2. VPC is connected directly to your computer, make the network connector by through line according to the
below right figure.
Figure 61. Making Cable Crystal Head

When the VPC when properly connected to the network, the RJ45 socket indicator light up; when there is data
to send and receive network indicator flashes.
VPC factory default IP address: 192.168.1.111. Ensure TCP/IP protocol can be accessed; ports like TCP8000,
UDP6666, UDP5403 can work properly.
If your network has more than one VPC or VPC's default IP address conflicts with existing computers, network
equipment; your VPC address must be on a local area network (or direct-attached) change to the IP address
conflict-free, so your VPC can connect to the network

4.4.2 Installation VPC-Client
We can send the latest software to our client through email. If you do not get the software, please connect our
support department. .
When received the software, just copy it on the PC, and run it directly.
If you use 64-bit operation system, please set the VPC-Client.exe as following:
Figure 62. Run VPC-Client.exe In Compatibility Mode
4.4.3 Power ON Counter
When VPC has power (DC13.5-36V), wait about 6-8 seconds, VPC goes into standby status. As soon as voltage
is above 36V, VPC resettable fuses will automatically cut off the power supply to protect.
4.4.3.1 LED status description
Figure 63. LED Status Description

Power LED: Light on when power on.
Status: Light on when can count passenger.
Signal: Light on when operate using VPC-Client.exe.(The version with GGM module, GPS signal light when
close the door)

GGM Status: GGM module current status (Connect or not connect)
4.4.3.2 The description of the power supply on the vehicle
General in bus, power is DC24V or DC12V. VPC has a wide voltage power input, combined with different power
supplies on the bus (such as car keys direct switching power supply or battery powered), you can access
individually or together. StereoCamera power supply is DC12V input, so it is best to fetch by VPC DC12V
output.
4.4.4 Change Computer IP
VPC Image Processor default IP address is: 192.168.1.111, belongs to 192.168.1.0/254 network segment
therefore before you change VPC processors IP address, has to setup Host PCs IP address into 192.168.1.0/24
segment then can modify the VPC Processors IP address
1. Select Start Control Panel
2. Select Network Connections- Local Area Connection

3. Select Local Area Connection Properties:
4. In General menu select Internet Protocol(TCP/IP) ,Click Properties

5. Follow IP address as below to change Host PCs IP address and Subnet mask
6. In the IP address field enter the following
192 . 168 . 1 . 209
Note:
The IP address can be altered to meet the end users requirements; the last three fields should
be numbers ranging from 0 to 254.
The Host PC address must be different from the VPC address.
7. In the Subnet mask field enter the following

255 . 255 . 255 . 0
8. Click on the OK button of each Dialog Box until all are closed.
9. Click Start button ,select Run enter CMD then click OK button to run it.

10. Enter ping 192.168.1.111 -t, press Enter button
11. If comes out the result as above ,means network connect successful
Note:
Due to network protocol rules, before you run PING command make sure that the Host PC
IP is the same network segment with VPC Processor
4.4.5 Firewall configuration
If the host PC has a firewall running, the following ports must be open:
Form 14. Computer Ports and Protocol

Port Protocol Direction
8000 TCP
6666 UDP
5403 UDP
4.4.6 Change Network Adapter Settings
Computer directly connected the Counter, be sure the computer's network card is set to 10M half-duplex or
10M full-duplex network cable.

Figure 64. Set 10M Half-duplex
4.4.7 Run VPC-Client
By double-clicking the VPC-Client.exe and click the Login button in the bellow left image, the following
graphical interface will appear as the right below picture:
Figure 65. VPC client landing interface

Counter IP: Default value is 192.168.1.111
Port: Default is 8000
Username: Default is admin
Password: Default is 123
Login: Via TCP/IP use VPC-Client.exe connect VPC directly.
Open Param File: Open a parameter file of VPC saved, to off-line overview these parameters of this VPC.
See more at Save As Param File(.DSP) . This function let you can see the VPC parameters in the bus, and
also, you can send this Parameter-file to Boanying to get better support.
Note: Once you change IP, user name, password, port; next time login, you need to verify the new IP, user
name, password and port.

When login successfully, the VPC-Client.exe will send three orders including (Refresh All Picture, Get Network
Param, Get Detect Param) to VPC, and get some information and show in the VPC-Client.exe interface. So the
buzzer will ring three times.
4.4.7.1 Login failed treatment method
The VPC will appear below chart tip if you cannot login and connect VPC successfully:
Figure 66. VPC client login failed

Please ensure you have input these right information.
Appears two tips as above pictures, you can check the following aspects:
1. The client connects counter without any response
"Start"-"run" in the CMD command prompt, use ping counter command IP and see if I can ping Tong; ping pass,
you may use a client that does not support program "VPC-Client.exe";
"Start" - "run" in the CMD command prompt, use ping counter IP command, see whether ping can pass; If Ping
can pass, may be use the wrong version of the Client program "VPC - Client exe."
2. Unable to connect to device
Counter did not enter the standby correctly
Counter and PC are not on the same network segment
Connect the network cable is not correct (LAN using twisted pairwire, otherwise use crosswire )
3. Ping works, but the counter is not responding
There is no completely closed client in Task Manager, clear the tasks first
4. Counter ping is impassable
Counter network port is blocked, green connect light is on. Yellow data light keeps flashing, turn off the client,
unplug and re-plug the network cable, restart the counter
4.4.7.2 Login Successfully

Min Obj: Set the minimum target value of real-time image per frame, unit is pixels. Min obj Should be set to
a value less than the frame that one people pass, such as when a person passed, its 10 consecutive frames
between the minimum value of the image is 7000-15000, 5000-6000 is recommended that you set the
minimum target value. The default value is 5,000 (The whole screen total is 360*288=103,680 pixels).
Max Obj: The maximum pixels of every object in each frame. The default is 8000. (Need no modify)
In order to set up a more accurate pixel size of actual people and filter interferential image, the software
provides real-time display the pixel size of one persons head size (minimum target) and all profiles (maximum
target), makes it easy for users to observe and set. Note that if two people appear simultaneously, client will
only display minimum and maximum goals pixels of the first occurrence of person.

Then the Counter will restart. Default is 4 IN 1 in VideoOut 1 and None in VideoOut 2.
Figure 74. Video Output Configuration

1. Video Output1/2 Settings
Video Output1:
4 In 1: Include two StereoCameras four original videos output in one four-quad (without any OSD).
None: No video output.
Video Output2:
CH1 Left Video: Video out with channel 1 left camera.

CH2Left Video: Video out with channel 2 left camera.
4 in 1: Include two StereoCameras four videos output in one four-quad (with OSD).
None: No analog signal video out from the VPC.

Figure 75. VideoOut 1 and VideoOut 2 @4 IN 1
Note:
After changing Video Output2 in the list, the VPC will automatically restart within 10 seconds.
The video output 1: 4 in 1 is set in the program, so we cant change it.
The video output 2: there are several selections. The default is none. If we select 4 IN 1, it will restart the
VPC, and when refresh the image, we can see the image like the picture .Thus we can see the status of the
doors and whether the VPC is running.
If you select debug mode, when you connect the output to one display device, you can see the detect image,
like the picture:
4.5.3 Detect
Detection Parameters tab, all press channel 1 and 2 are provided, respectively, valid for the current channel.
Depending on the VPC models can not function display.

4.5.3.1 Working Period
We can set the working time, when over the time, the VPC wont count.
4.5.3.2 Automatic Restart
Counter set daily scheduled reboot time.
Enable: and set the reboot time.
Disabled: Do not enable Counter daily scheduled reboot function. Set 25 in hour blank, it means disable.
4.5.3.3 IN/OUT Direction
In or Out direction depends on your definition. There are two directions:
From image bottom to image top, use Line 1 and Line 1 Starting Point to judge counting.
From image top to image bottom, use Line 2 and Line 2 Starting Point to judge counting.
From left to right movement and conversely in the image is not be counted.
Changing the direction value, the three counters will be exchanged the IN and OUT numbers automatically.

4.5.3.4 Line 1/2
Line 1 functions: It will generate a counted number when a person appear near the bottom of the image and
move to the top the image and across the Line 1.
Line 2 functions: It will generate a counted number when a person appear near the top of the image and move
to the bottom of the image and across the Line 2.
Line 1 and Line 2 ranges are 0-288 pixel. If the Line 1/2 value is set to the line near the edges of the image will
cause does not count.
You may choose the Line 1/2 position by using the mouse click the left image. Please choose the Draw button,
then click.
4.5.3.5 Line 1(/2) Starting Point
Line 1 Starting Point is to set a Y coordinate value is greater than Line 1 Y-coordinate value in the image. After
this point with a line parallel to the image edge is divided the image into upper and lower two rectangular
areas. Does not contain Line 1 rectangular area (the lower half of the image) is defined as Target Appear Area
of Line 1. When a person appears from the Target Appear Area of Line 1, and then across the Line 1, Counter
will produce a count.
Line 2 Starting Point is to set a Y coordinate value is less than Line 2 Y-coordinate value in the image. After this
point with a line parallel to the image edge is divided the image into upper and lower two rectangular areas.
Does not contain Line 2 rectangular area (the higher half of the image) is defined as Target Appear Area of
Line 2. When a person appears from the Target Appear Area of Line 2, and then across the Line 2, Counter will
produce a count.
Valid target: the person target block center, must appear in the Target Appear Area of Line 1, will participate
in the judgment of the counting rules.
The range of Line 1 Starting Point: 0-288; typically set Y coordinate values of Line 1 plus between 80-120. The
default value is 208.
The range of Line 2 Starting Point: 0-288; typically set Y coordinate values of Line 1 minus between 80-120.
The default value is 80.

Figure 76. Line 1(/2) Starting Point
4.5.3.6 Detect Area
VPC image size is 360 288, the coordinates of the image is (0,0), (360,0), (0,288), (360,288). Default value of
the detection area is full screen, ie left: 0; right: 360; on: 0; follows: 288.
The purpose is to set the does not detect the left and right area from watching the image is people get in and
get off through its center must be avoided in the does not detect area, otherwise the situation will count
missing.
The purpose is to set the does not detect the top and bottom area from watching the image is avoided the
door interference.
But, the no-detection-area could not be set too large, it will happen missing counting.
If the left margin is set to 20, the right margin is set to 340, it means that within the detection area (20,0) to
(340,288) of the rectangular area, namely blank portion in the figure below; no detection area is on both sides
of the ramp line portion, as shown below:

Figure 77. Left and Right no-detection-area
4.5.3.7 Min/Max Objects
Min Object: The detected objects pixels. Less than the pixel will be ignored. The default value is 5000, if
missing passengers happened, you can set it 3000 or 4000.
Max Object: The default value is 8000.
These two value can accord to the Min Obj and the Max Obj in the Real Time Video at Server/Video
table.
4.5.3.8 Installation Height
According to the installation height to choose this value.
4.5.3.9 Ignore Height
According to you want ignore none counting height from the ground, you can choose the value. The default
value is 120 cm.
4.5.3.10 Closed Door Rules
The default value is Enable.
When enable the Engable CloseDoor Counting Rule, when people get in, when the door is closed, people
remaining anywhere in the detection area will be counted as IN. The counter will be amended accordingly.
When the door is open, every person already within the door threshold line (line 1) and the portion of
detection area facing the doors, will be counted as OUT if they leave the detection area, again, the counter will
be amended accordingly.

When Engable CloseDoor Counting Rule is disable, When people get in, the the protion of detection area
facing the doors have not crossed the Line 2 will not count as IN. When people get out, the the protion of
detection area facing the doors have not crossed the Line 1 will not count as OUT.
4.5.3.11 Door line
Door line is defined a position line under 1 meter of the door closed, it is using for avoid wrong counting by the
door movement interference. Door line is different from the detect area, it is only effective during the door
open or closed 1-3 seconds.
Door Interfere Area: The rectangle area between the door line and image edge of near the door.
Figure 78. Door Interference

When door open or closed, the object in the Door Interfere Area will not be counted, see the yellow area in
the following picture:

4.5.3.14 Save Background Image
Each channel (StreroCamera) have a static background image depth of its independent scene. So the need for
channel 1/2 were preserved in order for all normal channels 1/2 and accurate count.
Static background image is an image height values describe the scene no one moving object or when. It would
have been recorded in the VPC, or restart after each boot will be with real-time background updating
continuously updated and changed and saved.
Click the button to save the background image will pop up prompt window:
Choose Yes, depending on the network situation, about 10-20 seconds, VPC will sound / light tips saved
successfully.
When update or change the Camera parameter . we should save the background, or the VPC wont count.
Note:
1) Camera ID is corresponding to the real connected.

2) Left lens image (near the IR Sensor) shows on the left image of the VPC-Client window.
3) Make sure door opened.
4) Make sure nobody under the Camera.
5) We suggest save the background at daytime, because the light is enough. When save at night ,please turn
on the light on the bus .
6) When finished, the Background windows will be the real height value using grey pixel. the Detect
windows will be a pure darkness windows.
Figure 80. GOOD Background and Detect Image

Judge Background Image:
1) One good background image: you may see the high or low objects in the scene through the grey value,
the brighter parts represent higher object, the black parts represent low object.
2) One good detect image: it should be pure darkness when there is none object or person under the
camera.
3) If one person stand under the camera, it should have many layers in the image.

6.3 Serial Port function declaration for VPC with GGM

Because the VPC-GGM has added GGM module, the serial ports(RS232 and RS485) of VPC-GGM has been
occupied by the GGM module, so these two serial port can not received command anymore. They just both
can send real time records. User can receive these data by using other device, such as a LED-Screen
Figure 90. LED display the number of the people in the vehicle
6.4 VPC-GGM Software Setting

After inserting the SIM card to the SF-GGM module into the SF-VPC-2xV, the VPC_Client.exe software must be
correctly set to make the module work and send data to the right place.
Running the VPC_Client.exe software, log on correctly, you can the Device Type will appear VPC-GGM in
the Counter Info. Figure:

If the Device Type is not VPC-GGM, please update it first or contact us.
In the VPC_Client.exe, we must set the "Server/Video" and "IO/Record".
6.4.1 Server Video Settings
In Server/Video tab, Server Config is setting the network parameters of the computer receiving data from
GPRS with the fixed public IP address.
(Figure 43:Center server setting diagram)
In VPC_Client.exe setting interface, set the "Server/Video" as bellow:
Server IP: There is a fixed IP address of a server to receive the data; all Counter records and GPS data in
this VPC will send to the server address through GPRS. And the server should be install a software to
receive these data. such as our SF-PC-Server.exe softwart.
Ports: a fixed IP address of the server's port, the number is fixed at 6000 (make sure the server's 6000
port is not occupied)

6.6.1.4 GGM Resend Machanism
When GPRS lost or have no signal, counter and Server communicate will lose data, or the data received is not
enough. To ensure the record data hasnt been send out and the record data is not enough, add GPRS data
resend mechanism in this model.

Using 32 byte to keep every record of GGM, using the last type mark whether the center server have received
this record or not:
Every record send by device received successfully by the server will resend the received record no (Such as the
device sends 100 records to the server, if server received, it will resend 100 to the device). When device
received the feedback from server, it will write 1 according to the last byte of the record no (such as 100), then
this data transfer has been finished.
After counter transfer data to Server, the counter will automatic search the record in the current flash.
Counter initiate the timer, resending mechanism every 5 minutes, researching the records in the flash. Counter
1 frame search one record, equal to one second search 20 records. Once searching the record has no feedback
it will send it out, until all the records receive the feedback from center server.
6.7 Condition when send more data:

1) After sending the data to server, the server feedback data lost or data fault, which lead to send
more data.
2) When start resend, it will produce new record data. Before new record receive the feedback from
the center sever, it search the location of the new record, at this time this record has not received
the feedback from center server, it will resend the data record.
VPC received the feedback from server, when write the last byte of record, the flash fault will also lead to
record send more. This condition is less.

13 *RS232 and RS485 Protocol
13.1 Introduction
The count meter scale with two serial ports, a configuration for RS232, a configuration for RS485, can't modify.
If need to change type, please contact with us.
About other software or other equipment (such as GPS equipment) that you develop based on VPC serial ports,
we provide a debug program (SF_PC_RS232_GUI. Exe), and provide the source code to facilitate your
secondary development and debugging
Note:
In VPC-GGM, because the two serial ports to connect the GGM module, so, the only RS232 TX
Can send the real time records and Baud rate is only 115200bps. The RS232 and RS485 could not
receive commands any more.
13.2 Nouns Constraints

Master: VPC RS-232 protocol is usually connected to computer, we call the computer PC.
Slave: Usually its a VPC
ACK: Response frame
NOTE: There are two ports with different function on VPC, they are configured as RS232 and RS485.
1. VPC 232 port can receive and send and support all the commands list in the below table.
2. VPC485 port can receive and send, but the operation of receive and send cannot at the same time,
support all the commands list in the below table.
13.3 Configuration
1. You need set up the following parameters in IO/Record of VPC-Client.exe of the two serial ports:
Baud rate: 19200bps
Start bit: 1Bit
Data Length: 8Bit
Stop bit: 1Bit
No parity bit

13.5 RS232-GUI TOOL

SF-PC-RS232-GUI.exe serial port debugging tool can send command to VPC, after VPC received the command,
it will feedback. As in the chapter 6.6.6 read time and 6.6.5 Clear counter value.

13.6 Test Serial Port Connection
1. Connect the serial port of Counter and PC (such as a laptop, if there is no serial port in laptop, you can use
the USB to RS232 device is connected, remember that both ends of the serial line connection is "revenue
RX" access "fat TX", "send TX" then "receive RX".
2. Counter and Master must have set same baud rate, and set Hexadecimal displa.
3. Open the VPC-Client.exe and Login, then set as following:
Baud Rate: 19200bps
Choose Send real time option.
Click the Reset CH1 Counter button, the master will get one record, and when Counter counted once,
mater will get one record.
4. Connection as following:
