Recorded: July 3rd Polara iNS Buttons installed not sure the year. This was taken during a Visit to Florida. The Buttons just have a flashing red light. And Some Buttons say "Change Password". Only one of the just says "Wait". I think maybe because they are fixing the sidewalks they are not working right now.

Older Polara 8 wires buttons. All say "Walk sign is on." There is one Button crossing West Lake that just makes a buzzing noise. And 1 Polara iNS Crossing Lehigh that makes a machine gun noise. Glenview IL
You Find more iNS than other buttons
That’s a long sign
@Ezia1 Yes
1:02 there is only one button that does this in my intersection
@Ezia1 Really?
They actually have polara (EN4, EN3 or 2s?) That does rapid tick two in my city
@Ezia1 really? what street do the two buttons do a rapid ticking noise. I'm not a huge fan of the ticking noise I like the buttons that say "Walk sign is on to cross".
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreasYou aren't the only.
@@STUAA2024 Yes, I like those that they program with the street name but sometimes they don't program all of them just 1 or 2 only.
The Polara 8-wire is also not weather-resistant.
@Joshua_Park_693 yes they are not weather-resistant and during winter it gets very cold in the negatives some buttons loose there sound fast.
What is that noise
@Ezia1 Which noise? The noise in the background are when there were cicadas.
I thought she counted down, but no, she didn't.
No these don't countdown.
It has a female voice
Why it sounds like Machine Gun??? 🤣🤣
Not sure why they do a machine gun. I think they programmed with that.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas Standard Walk RT4/Rapid Tick 4 is the the default walk sound on pretty much all models of polara navigators
@@captainchris2016 really I don't know that much about the older Polara Buttons.
What type of walk phase was that
@Ezia1 I'm not sure this is my first time seeing the buttons. Only one button crossing Foster says walk sign is on the others have a ticking noise because there is no street name.
Novax Pedestrain Buttons I have seen these buttons at 2 intersections.
@STUAA2024 Thank you, I will change the title. I have never seen this button before in the suburbs. Not sure if these buttons are in Chicago only. And what other 2 intersections have you seen them?
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas Oracle Rd and 1st, Oracle Rd and Pursh View for me.
Novax/Pelco Intellicross buttons
@NyxKemo Thank you, I have never seen this button before.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas i’ve seen them once, they’re very rare
@@NyxKemo Yes, Usually I've seen more the Polara or Campbell. This is also my first time seeing Novax Buttons.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas polara is extremely common here, we have some Campbell PedSafety 4EVR C2s here but no Guardians or older Pedsafety APS buttons
@@NyxKemo Yes Polara and Campbell is what I've seen more.
If i remembered correctly, they have these black INS navigators in Downers Grove
Really I haven't seen lots of black iNS, I think only 2 or 3 times.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas Huh.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas That's odd.
@@bryanschlippjr4894 Yes I've seen more the iNS Color yellow.
The voice on the buttons sounds a little distorted than I remember. The Audio Library sounds something else, and it's not distorted there though.
@STUAA2024 yes these sound a little distorted I'm not sure why. The Buttons that I checked out at 167th and La Grange they don't sound distorted.
Whats the point of the dot if it does not glow
Some Buttons don't work anymore. they just make a buzzing noise.
As far as I know, Barrington and Dundee, is the same deal as this intersection, only one side with Polara buttons on it, but the Polara Bulldogs are gone supposedly, and replaced
Did you go check out the intersection yet?
@STUAA2024 Hopefully I can check that intersection. I don't pass by that intersection that much. But I did see last time that yes the Polara Bulldog buttons are gone and they have Polara iNS on one side crossing Barrington.
@@STUAA2024 No not yet I will try to visit that intersection.
@STUAA2024 I did check out Dundee Rd and Barrington but it's the same as this one, It has a rapid ticking noise. ua-cam.com/video/i09DEW748jA/v-deo.htmlsi=QhCr5pbmOEZXF6rz
- Walk sign is on - [Machine gun]
Rapid tick one
Yes, Rapid ticking noise. Not really my favorites.I like the ones that say "Walk sign is on".
The 3 on the side of the iNS indicates the amount of wires it uses.
@SUAA2024 really? I did not know that.
Surprise, they still work, one has no sound though
@STUAA2024 yes, one just makes a buzzing noise.
You said Chestnut And Patriot had one 8 wire, EN2s, and one iNS?? If those 8 wires where you went worked, I have higher hopes for you.
@@STUAA2024 4 8 wires but 3 work only. ua-cam.com/video/z_I4BYN-cQQ/v-deo.htmlsi=GtAmj-tUEaqRIaed
the japanese have a lovely crosswalk system, for kids mostly - worth seeing. The Dutch also have some basic but brilliant features - at crosswalks with high injury rates, they provide a basket of bricks. To cross the street, simply hold the brick above your head then replace it when the cars stop.
Here before STAA2024
😒
Just a suggestion....It would be interesting if you would also include the town or city in the location description. Thanks!
@streetssmartstraffic Yes I will add the suburb/location. And this intersection is in Crystal Lake,IL
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas Good to know! I previously served that region working on traffic signals. Thanks
Apparently, according to Polara's Audio Library and Google Maps, there is an intersection that originally had Polara Bulldogs, but the buttons were recently replaced with Polara iNS or iDS, it's on Barrington and Dundee, they talk (that is where the Polara Audio Library info comes in...)
@STUAA2024 I will check that intersection and I didn't know they had a Polara Audio library with the street names.
We have these in Irvine.
These don't count down from 20 or above.
No I think because the sidewalks aren't too long you can cross them fast, they don't make the countdowns that long.
Can you try to find an iNS that counts
Yes, I also want to find one that counts but I think the iNS they don't program it with a countdown but I will try to find one.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreasThe iN3s I have been by count as high as 29
@@STUAA2024 can you upload it? I haven't heard a iN3 countdown.
I love the way you use them correctly -not spamming it -not being impatient -crosses fast so you don’t get hurt -*r e s p e c t s t h e b u t t o n*
@Ezia1 Thanks, But sometimes I do have to rush because the left or right turn lanes cars are always turning on some intersections. But yes always have to wait for the walk sign to come up especially on the busy intersections.
How many N2s are in this intersection
6 N2s
Tbh when it say “walk sign is on” they sound like a real person
Now it’s in ny and some say the street name They have the same poster as well
@Ezia1 what street name do they say? and yes here only 2 Buttons say walk sign is on the others have a beeping noise.
I heard an N2 button say a countdown exceeding 22 before.
Really what intersection, and I've only seen 3 Intersection that countdown including this one usually at number 19. The new Polara buttons they don't countdown.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas Walnut Ave and Harvard Ave. The N2 button counted down from 27 but only 1 button because the other one lost its working sound. Again, that's in California.
@@Joshua_Park_693 Oh really it counts down from 27. No I haven't heard a button count down from 27. I want to see if I can find one that exceeds 22.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas I even found an EN2 button that exceeded 22 in California.
@Joshua_Park_693 I have seen on that exceeded 28 seconds
Nice, more talking N4s. Funny enough the new voice on that one N4 was used alot on the newer EN2/EN4s.
Really, I'm also not too sure what year these were installed I know the added them when they added the new traffic lights.
0:05 I think the speaker got damaged
Yes Maybe
Did you know they coded these buttons in roblox
Really in Roblox
Its just Cuckoos and Canadian melody
@@Ezia1 Ha, Yes But I'm not a huge fan of the machine gun noise I like the buttons that say the street name and I want to hear a button that does a Cuckoo noise.
I heard the N2 do a machine gun in Irvine
I saw one of the intersections in Irvine had a Polara iNavigator that replaced a Polara N2 Navigator.
Yes I wish I saw the N2 Navigator but they replaced them in 2022-2023 on some intersections.
We have those in Irvine that do a machine gun noise.
Really do you know the year they were installed?
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas 2021 I believe. Culver Dr and Campus Dr was one of the first intersections.
@@Joshua_Park_693 Oh is that intersection in Cali?
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreas Yes.
I was kind of expecting the N2 to talk, I guess not. UPDATE: The N2 was a replacement button for a 8 wire that used to be there.
No not these they did not program them with "Walk sign is on".
Nice looking buttons there. Have you visited Navy and Patriot yet? I hoping the N2 will still be there.
@STUAA2024 I think around March I did pass by that intersection and I did film it but I did not remember and yes the N2 were still there. ua-cam.com/video/h82qvmR7MAI/v-deo.htmlsi=0NW3JfZ2Azd_7IYe
Have you filmed Lehigh and West Lake Ave?
@Ezia1 Wrong link Lehigh and West Lake Ave have iNS Compass and Lehigh have the 8 wires left.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreasWait were you talking about the buttons in the video
@@Ezia1 I misunderstood the intersection, that intersection Lehigh and Chestnut has Polara iNS Buttons that make a machine gun noise. West Lake and Lehigh has 8 wires and 1 Polara iNS.
Ayo hold up that does not sound right
Some Campbell Pedsafety Buttons the voice is different then some other buttons.
This one is most alike to the nyc ones
Yes, The EZ Navigator Buttons.
Rapid beep
They still sound very well. By the way, Chestnut may not have 8 wires left, but Chestnut and Lehigh could have some.
@STUAA2024 No Chestnut and Lehigh's they all were replaced with iNS Buttons. I did pass by Chestnut and Patriot they have the EN2 and 8 wire and 2 iNS Buttons.
@@IllinoisPEDCrosswalksAreasThe question, does the 8 wire there work?
@@STUAA2024 Not sure if they work or not but I would have to see that intersection but I know they are still there.
When train approaches, the pedestrian signal cycle will be interrupted.
@Joshua_Park_693 Yes, This is one of my favorite intersection Prospect Ave There's another iNS on this street Prospect Ave and Mt Prospect Rd and Northwest Hwy I like the iNS Buttons because when a train is approaching it says" Train Approaching" ua-cam.com/video/7V-LfAs2oO4/v-deo.htmlsi=kOnvAIYyYOEFTgyi Northwest Hwy and Mt Prospect Rd ua-cam.com/video/Y1RJXxUhUoM/v-deo.htmlsi=Jn2jWZS0KP9-SSGu
- Patriot, walk sign is on to cross, Patriot - [machine gun sound]
Not every button here says a countdown.
No Just 2 Buttons not sure if the other ones that make a buzzing noise counted down too.
Since that one is loose take it back home
🤣
In NY New Rochelle There is iNS that say the street name, and EZ Navigators that do machine gun
Really ?
