1. COMPONENTS
WARNING
Storage:
- Do not expose the device to excessive heat or cold. This device must be stored at a temperature of between -30°C and +80°C, and its operating
temperature range is between -20°C and +70°C. Its maximum humidity is RH90%.
- Never use this device in environments with excessive humidity, dust or smoke.
- Avoid dropping or knocking the device.
- Never pierce, scratch or use abrasive cleaning products on this device.
- Never place cables where they can be crushed or stepped on.
Operating precautions
- The device can be powered using a 12V or 24V car battery or a vehicle electrical system.
- Incorrectly connecting the electrical system or power supply will damage the sensor and the control unit.
- The system tests and inspections described in these instructions and a report of the results must be included in the daily maintenance report.
Units on vehicles in operation must be tested every day before the vehicle begins operation. The results of this test must be recorded in the
maintenance log.
- The radar detection system is designed to be used on light commercial vehicles and mechanical equipment. Proper installation requires good
understanding of the vehicle/machine’s electrical systems and procedures, as well as complete understanding of the installation process.
Warning:
- Do not open the unit. This may result in damage, short circuits or electric shocks that may cause serious injury or death.
- The equipment is not an alternative to safe driving practices.
- The wire left loose on cable E must be insulated to avoid short circuits.

2. INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION WITH REAR VIEW SYSTEM
The entire system is powered by the vehicle battery via a 7.5 amp fuse.

2. INSTALLATION
• Trigger input (reversing detector activated)
Also make sure to connect the monitor’s priority input. The vehicle must deliver +12 or +24 volts via the white wire when
placed in reverse gear. It connects to the reversing light’s positive supply wire and allows the radar detection system to be
activated (audible warning in the cab, visual warning displayed on the monitor, and external alarm if this option has been
connected).
•Alarm output
The system provides an auxiliary output that triggers an external device every time the sensor detects an object. This output
can be used to activate an external backup alarm or a warning light. The output is switched to a high earth impedance state
when it is activated and is protected against overcurrents and short circuits. The maximum operating current is around
1 amp. The alarm supply cannot exceed 24V.

INSTALLING THE SENSOR
OBJECT DETECTION MODEL
Take care when mounting the radar sensor as it is important to ensure the product operates correctly.
The sensor must be installed centrally on the rear of the vehicle at around 1 m (+/- 0.3 m) above ground level
and must be angled upwards by 5°. It can be horizontally angled with a silicone mounting support.
Important: Check the sensor’s mounting position before beginning the installation on the vehicle. Temporarily
attach the sensor to the intended mounting position, switch the system on and ensure that nothing is detected.
NB: If the camera or sensor cables are too short or happen to become disconnected on vehicles with trailers, you can use our
range of CR or CSP extension cables. For more information, contact us.
