Installing a people counting system across multiple sites shouldn’t feel like rocket science. At FootfallCam, we’ve re-engineered the experience with our brand-new Installation Setup Widget, purpose-built for seamless setup, rapid diagnostics, and enhanced control — all from a single interface.
Whether you’re deploying 10 units or 10,000, the new widget is designed to make your installation smoother, faster, and less dependent on third-level support.
What Makes the New Widget a Game-Changer?
1. Self-Diagnostic Network Tools
No more guesswork. The widget includes an enhanced network diagnostic suite, allowing installers to:
- Detect connectivity issues in real time
- Isolate problems at the device, switch, or firewall level
- Troubleshoot without escalating to IT or calling support
- Empowering technicians with tools for on-site issue localisation reduces turnaround time drastically.
2. Customisable Privacy Mode
Adapt to any compliance requirement with user-selectable privacy settings:
- Anonymous counting mode
- Blurred stream or full video feed (for tuning only)
- Data protection settings aligned with GDPR, etc.
The widget makes privacy configuration accessible and enforceable — right at installation.
3. Wi-Fi Module Disable Option
For high-security environments or IT policy enforcement, the Wi-Fi module can now be disabled by default during setup.
4. Live Tuning and Validation Tools
The widget allows live streaming, angle adjustments, and zone tuning — all without needing external software. It also includes:
- Real-time calibration visuals
- Tuning for height, lighting, and positioning
- Walk-test mode for live accuracy checks
Reduces revisit rates and ensures optimal accuracy from day one.
5. Direct Data Integration Protocols
Now you can configure data outputs directly from the widget, supporting:
- MQTT
- BACnet
- API Push / Pull
- CSV Export
Whether you’re integrating with BMS, analytics platforms, or centralised dashboards — the device talks your language.
6. Heartbeat Monitoring and Health Check
Keep tabs on every device post-install with automatic health pings, ensuring:
- Uptime monitoring
- Early alert on disconnections
- Proactive maintenance routines
- Peace of mind for your IT and operations team.
Built for System Integrators and Onsite Engineers
Whether you’re working with contractors, internal IT teams, or third-party integrators, this widget reduces reliance on FootfallCam HQ and empowers local deployment teams to get the job done — right the first time.
