FP1 & FP2 (Foot Pedal 1 & 2)
The Foot Pedal 1 and 2 options allow you to assign a default class
for any Foot Pedal switches you are using for the study. These de-
vices plug into the Bank 1 and 2 slots on the top of the TDC Ultra
(next to the Comm Port) and allow you to use your foot to record
a class rather than pressing the key with your hand.
When you select either
FP1 or FP2, you will see
a screen similar to the one
shown here. Enter the class
number you want to use as
the default for the foot
pedal, using the 14 yellow classification keys, then press the DO
key to return to the Options menu.
Once you have set the options the way you like, press the DO key while
STRT is flashing and you will be prompted to select a site code type
and assign a site code. Refer to chapter 2 for information on selecting
a site code.
Start Study
After you have selected a Site Code, you are ready to start the study.
The top line of the display shows the type of study and the mode being
used. The second line shows the currently active class. The third line
shows the data as you record it, while the fourth line shows the current
count number and the current time so that you can start the study at a
specific time.
To record your data, take note of the Active Class. For any vehicles that
you record in this class, you only need record the turning movement by
pressing one of the 16 gray movement keys. The TDC Ultra automati-
cally assigns the active class to the movement.
