Quick Summary
The Traf-Sys DirectCount Three is a wireless, bi-directional infrared sensor that tracks foot traffic across entryways up to 18 feet wide. It features an integrated display for viewing historical data and uses rechargeable batteries that last approximately 4 to 6 months.
While Minitex has discontinued the Traf-Sys DirectOne, we are excited to offer the upgraded DirectCount Three People Counting Sensor through our cooperative purchasing program. Remarkably, you can now transition to this advanced technology for the same price as the previous model.
Simple, Wireless, and Bi-directional
The DirectCount Three is a significant step forward in ease of use and data accuracy. This fully wireless system consists of two partsā€”a transmitter (TX) and a receiver (RX)ā€”that use infrared beam-break technology to track foot traffic. Unlike many entry-level counters, the DirectCount Three is capable of bi-directional tracking, meaning it can distinguish between "In" and "Out" counts.
Features and Benefits
The DirectCount Three offers a robust suite of features designed for accuracy and convenience:
- Advanced Detection: Utilizes infrared beams with dual signal processing technology.
- Fully Wireless: The system is rechargeable battery operated, requiring no external wiring.
- Bi-directional Tracking: Specifically tracks both "In" and "Out" traffic.

Streamlined Setup
Setting up the DirectCount Three is a straightforward process. Libraries simply need to charge the units, set the system time, and mount them between 36 and 52 inches high. The device includes a built-in alignment indicator; once properly aligned, a green light will flash to confirm it is ready for operation.
For libraries looking for an affordable, standalone solution to gather pedestrian traffic statistics, the DirectCount Three provides professional-grade accuracy without the need for complex wiring or software.
The Traf-Sys DirectCount Three is available now through the Minitex Shop. Visit the product page to learn more or to place your order at the original DirectOne price point.
