Glossary
●CAN bus: The Controller Area Network, also known as CAN-bus, is a serial
standard for field buses (mainly in the automotive environment), of
multicast type, introduced in the 1980s by Robert Bosch GmbH, to connect
different electronic control units (ECUs). CAN has been specifically
designed to work without problems even in environments strongly
disturbed by the presence of electromagnetic waves and can use a
balanced potential difference line such as RS-485 as a transmission
medium.

Intended use
KiwiZone Plus is designed for use only on self-propelled industrial trucks or
industrial vehicles with electric, endothermic or hybrid drive complying with the
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
Prohibited use
Any use of the KiwiZone Plus system not expressly described in this manual is not
permitted. In particular:
●Installation on vehicles that can travel on public roads is not permitted.
●In bogies crossing tracks unless there is already a self-holding system
applied to the starter consent.
KiwiZone Plus is not a security system.
KiwiZone Plus is not an explosion-proof device.
KiwiZone Plus cannot be installed on vehicles with two or more
axles powered by an endothermic engine, such as cars, lorries,
mopeds, motorbikes and operating machinery licensed for public
use.
General safety instructions
The KiwiZone Plus system CANNOT replace the safety devices of
the vehicle on which it is installed.

The KiwiZone Plus system MUST be installed in compliance with
the general safety regulations.
It is forbidden to install the KiwiZone Plus system to inhibit or alter
the operation of the safety systems already present on the vehicle.
IT IS FORBIDDEN TO USE the system to operate power contactors,
as opening them while current is flowing would cause an electric
arc.
The management of deceleration MUST respect the safety of the
machine and the operators. Slowing down a machine MUST NOT
create potentially dangerous situations.
When positioning the KiwiZone Plus system, KEEP A MINIMUM
DISTANCE of 20 cm from the operator.
Do not use the KiwiZone Plus system in the presence of flammable
gases or fumes, near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or
during blasting operations. Avoid any potentially explosive
atmosphere.
Warnings on the emission of radio waves
●The KiwiZone Plus system receives and emits radio waves.
●The wireless modules used for transmissions meet all safety requirements
for high-frequency radio-wave communications.
●The maximum power radiated by the KiwiZone Plus system is below the
thresholds imposed by regulations.

Description and purpose of the system
KiwiZone Plus allows you to manage truck access and activity to increase security
in areas bordered by electronic gates.
When the truck enters the "SAFE" areas, KiwiZone Plus activates the automatic
slowdown of the truck and any acoustic and/or visual signals.
Thanks to radio technology, the system immediately recognises the trolley when
it enters the relevant area.
KiwiZone Plus can deny access to hazardous areas of the company to
unauthorised vehicles (e.g. Atex zones).
KiwiZone Plus can be installed on trucks and industrial vehicles with drivers on
board and/or ground or driverless vehicles such as:
●Forklift trucks with front lift powered by electric or thermal motors.
●Lifts with covering forks, retractable, with forks between the side members.
●Electric company vehicles (caddy, motor scooters, toy trains, etc.).
KiwiZone Plus consists of a control unit with an integrated directional antenna.

Operating principle
The system needs to be installed on the vehicle by connecting it to the power
source (battery) and to one or more signals provided on the machine.
A software configuration of the system is then carried out during installation.
All settings can be made with the help of a PC configuration software
(downloadable from www.kiwitron.it in the download section).
KiwiZone - Gate
The KiwiZone - Gate system detects KiwiZone - Mobile devices and operates
relays on the vehicle and gate as required.
It is installed on automatic doors and/or gates in order to delimit sensitive areas of
the workplace.
The KiwiZone - Gate device consists of 2 directional antennas and an interface
box.
Main functions:
●Detection of KiwiZone - Mobile devices and consequent activation of exits
on the vehicle and/or door.
Examples of Use:
●Activate an output linked to slowing down the vehicle when the input gate
is passed, and remove the speed lock on exit.
●Activate an output connected to the gate opening to open the gate when
the vehicle passes.
KiwiZone - Mobile
The KiwiZone - Mobile system allows you to detect KiwiZone - Gate devices and
receive/set the output configuration on the KiwiZone - Gate.
It is installed on electric vehicles and/or vehicles in general in order to act on the
vehicle according to the sensitive areas of the workplace.

To protect the health of operators, place the device at least half a
metre away from the driver's seat to limit exposure to
electromagnetic waves emitted by wireless devices.
It is forbidden to place the devices near sources of strong heat or
exposed to the weather.
It is forbidden to install the devices in positions which restrict the
driver's view or which may hinder his movements.
Avoid placing the device with metal parts covering its top, as this may
cause malfunctions in wireless devices.
It is strictly forbidden to drill holes in the vehicle structure in order to
install the devices. Only use brackets or fastening systems that do not
compromise the structure of the vehicle.
KiwiZone installation - Gate
Place KiwiZone -Gates in the centre of the entrance to the area; one on the inside
and one on the outside, with the top of the device pointing downwards at an
angle of 30° to the horizon (60° to the vertical) so that the radio signal radiation
cone projects the door activation area onto the ground.
