Project Description: IRD installed four (4) IRD Bending Plate Ramp Sorter systems. Each system is a basic IRD ramp sorter. A Bending Plate® scale was installed on the ramp with a Dynax AS400 axle sensor and two loops provided data to a 1068 Unix WIM Computer located next to the roadside in an air conditioned cabinet. The electronics interface to a pair of green arrow LCS installed together on an overhead pole. As vehicles pass, the LCS loops positioned in the roadway turn the LCS off. Data is transferred to an operator terminal via a fibre optic network from the WIM Computer and is displayed using the IRD Java Windows Displays.
