Changing Dwell Meter Settings
The optional Dwell Meter records how long people spend in an area and how often that area was visited. You can choose the length of time over which to record visits, and have differing intervals or epochs. For example, you could count the number of people visiting a zone every 2 seconds for the first 24 seconds, then every 10 seconds for the next 2 minutes.
A Dwell Meter has 24 epochs, split into 0–11 and 12–23. You enter an epoch length for the first 12 epochs, and a multiplier for the next 12. To achieve the example given above, you'd enter 2 seconds as the length of epochs 1–11, and a multiplier of 5 for epochs 12–23.
- In the VT Setup software select the Unit Select tab. Choose your site and click the Connect to site button.
- Select the Logger Setup tab and choose a VT Logger from the Unit Address list.
- Click the Dwell Epochs button.
- Enter the basic epoch length and the epoch multiplier.
Note: Also make sure that Dwell is enabled in the Settings tab.
