Introduced in 2007, the TRAX Flex HS is the newest model in the TRAX line of
automatic traffic data recorders. This new, innovative traffic data recorder blends
the accuracy and proven reliability of the TRAX series of traffic counters with
exciting new features to create simply THE BEST traffic data recorder available.
The Flex HS is the latest generation of the TRAX series. It records data faster
than any TRAX before it, providing the highest degree of accuracy. In addition, it
adds the convenience of USB port downloading and the ability to upload firmware
changes, as well as numerous other enhancements.

The Power of Time-Stamped Data - In recording its data, the TRAX Flex HS time-stamps every axle recorded
during the count. With this time-stamping, you can record one set of data and get traffic volume, speed,
classification and gap data all from that one data set. What’s more, the time stamp data actually lets you fix
problems after the data has been collected.
With many traffic counters, if you set something up wrong the data collected would not be usable and there
wasn’t anything you could do but recount. However, with time-stamped data you can change things like the
layout used, the tube spacing used and several others after the data has been collected, reducing the need for
recounting.
Reduce Errors & Simplify Installation - Most traffic counters require two
tubes spaced at least eight feet apart to record accurate data for speed, class
or gap. With the Flex you can collect this data using a tube spacing of only 2
feet if using standard road tubes, or an incredible 4 inches if using the
EZ Belt, which is a revolutionary new form of road tube that eliminates the
need to measure tube spacing in the field. More details...
16X Faster than other Counters

Save Time and Money with Built-in Sensor Diagnostics
Few things are more frustrating than spending time & money to do a traffic study
only to find out later the data is no good because of a road tube problem. With a
TRAX Flex HS, you can greatly reduce this possibility. Flex data recorders use
built-in diagnostics to analyze the strength of air pulses that are received from
road tubes. More details...
Data collected with the TRAX Flex can be analyzed in a variety of ways (such as volume, classification, speed and
gap) using our powerful TRAXPro software.
Coordinate data with GPS Compatibility
One of the great features of the TRAX Flex is its ability to load and store GPS
coordinates. Simply plug your GPS unit into a Flex and the Flex will retrieve and
store exact latitude and longitude information. This information is then
downloaded with your study! More details...
Upload Firmware Changes - With the new TRAX Flex, you can update its
firmware (the program that runs inside the TRAX and tells it how to operate) with
the same ease as updating software – simply download the latest firmware
version from our web site then, using the TRAXPro software, upload the new
firmware into the TRAX Flex. You can now do in minutes what used to take days
or weeks to accomplish. No shipping, no downtime, no hassle. More details...

USB Downloading - One of the most convenient new features of the TRAX Flex
HS is the addition of a USB port for use in downloading your data. Most older
traffic counters use a serial port for downloading data, but many new computers
no longer come with a serial port for you to connect to. This usually requires you
to use an extra adapter to create a port on the computer that you can use. The
USB connection of the TRAX Flex allows you to bypass this issue, by allowing
you to connect to any of your computer’s USB ports. And, since the USB port
uses a standard format, any USB cable you use to connect to a peripheral
device (printer, scanner, etc.) can be used to download the TRAX Flex.


Unmatched Processing Speed - The ‘HS’ in TRAX Flex HS stands for ‘high speed’, which
best describes the processing speed of this unit. The Flex's specially designed data
processor allows it to record 16 times faster than previous traffic counters, leading to much
greater data accuracy. With the speed of the processor, this TRAX has been optimized to
collect highly accurate data using the smallest amount of tube spacing possible.
Increased Water Resistance - Several new features of the TRAX Flex HS make
it more resistant to water damage than any previous TRAX recorder. To start, the
faceplate uses a membrane keypad with a sealed display and input keys that
eliminate the possibility of water entering the unit through these points if the lid is
opened in the rain.
