# Devices

Devices are the cameras that are used in traffic studies. Rekor engineers will assist with onboarding your devices. Once your devices are online and communicating with Discover, your administrator will need to setup the data forwarding to ensure the device reports data for your studies accurately. The last step will be to run a Device Self Check to ensure the device is communicating, calibrated, and capturing video accurately.

#### **Device Map** 

The Device Map view shows the locations of where each device is installed. Click on a camera icon to view the information about the devices at that location.

#### **Device List**

The Device List view shows more information about each device, plus the communication status.&#x20;

#### **Data Forwarding Lanes (Admins Only)**

The next step in setting up the devices is to configure the data lane forwarding.&#x20;

NOTE: This step can only be performed by your Discover administrator.

&#x20;Click the lanes icon. Use this page to set up the mapping between lane distance zones and the corresponding lane numbers used by traffic data integrators.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.rekor.ai/rekor-discover-r/class-count-and-speed/markdown/devices.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
