TotalCounterFF Front-Firing
Battery operated counters were first introduced in 2004. At that time, it was necessary to use special (and expensive) 3.6 volt AA batteries to power them for one-year use. Technology improved and we were able to finally offer a counter that uses standard 1.5 volt AA batteries and provide 12+ months of service. This unit is called 'Front-firing' because the counting signal comes from the large front of the counter. Users would walk to the counter display to view the total IN and OUT count and then reset the display to zero. This transmitted infrared beam-break ac-counter is priced at $385 plus shipping.
TotalCounterIO In-Out
We took the TCFF above, added another set of infrared beams, modified the on-board firmware and now users can view the Total IN count and the Total OUT count. No need to divide the counts by two. Still priced at $385 plus shipping.
TotalCounterIO Occupancy
We took our proven TCIO from above - and modified the onboard firmware to subtract the INs from the OUTs to determine real time occupancy. The display scrolls thru the Total IN count, the Total Out count, and shows the difference. Priced at $385 plus shipping.
TotalCounterOH Overhead
The TCOH installs on the ceiling above the entrance. It was introduced only a few years ago and quickly became a customer favorite. The sensor on the ceiling is battery operated so is easy to install. It wirelessly sends the total count to a remote display. Priced at $299 plus shipping.
TotalCounterSF Side-Firing
This is a 'side-firing' counter because the counting beam comes from the narrow 'side' of the counter. This feature, plus the small size of the counter, makes it perfect for installing on the 2-inch frame found around most entrances. Walk to the counter to read the total count from the display and reset to zero. Priced at $385 plus shipping.
TotalCounterSS Single-Sided
This is the TCOH from above, but installed on the side of the door, instead of the ceiling. Some customers use the outdoor sensor option to count cars thru drive thru lanes and drop-off lanes. With the wireless remote display indoors, it is easy to see the outside count. Priced at $299 plus shipping.

Installed on the ceiling above the entrance |
Small size of the sensor and side firing design allows installation on the 2" door frame typically found around the entrance. |
There is only one side to this counter therefore it is good for areas where there is only one wall near the entrance |
