Safety Directions 7

CAUTION
Unsuitable installation location
Installing near mechanically moving machine components may damage the
product.
Precautions:
▶Deect the mechanically moving machine components as far as possible
and dene a safe installation zone.
CAUTION
Not properly secured accessories
If the accessories used with the product are not properly secured and the
product is subjected to mechanical shock, for example blows or falling, the
product may be damaged or people can sustain injury.
Precautions:
▶When setting up the product, make sure that the accessories are correctly
adapted, tted, secured, and locked in position.
▶Avoid subjecting the product to mechanical stress.
DANGER
Risk of being struck by lightning
If the product is used with accessories, for example on masts, staffs, poles,
you may increase the risk of being struck by lightning. Danger from high
voltages also exists near power lines. Lightning, voltage peaks, or the touching
of power lines can cause damage, injury and death.
Precautions:
▶Do not use the product in a thunderstorm as you can increase the risk of
being struck by lightning.
▶Be sure to remain at a safe distance from electrical installations. Do not
use the product directly under or close to power lines. If it is essential to
work in such an environment contact the safety authorities responsible
for electrical installations and follow their instructions.
▶If the product has to be permanently mounted in an exposed location, it is
advisable to provide a lightning conductor system. A suggestion on how to
design a lightning conductor for the product is given below. Always follow
the regulations in force in your country regarding grounding antennas and
masts. These installations must be carried out by an authorised specialist.
▶To prevent damages due to indirect lightning strikes (voltage spikes)
cables, for example for antenna, power source or modem should be pro-
tected with appropriate protection elements, like a lightning arrester.
These installations must be carried out by an authorised specialist.
▶If there is a risk of a thunderstorm, or if the equipment is to remain
unused and unattended for a long period, protect your product addition-
ally by unplugging all systems components and disconnecting all connect-
ing cables and supply cables, for example, instrument - antenna.
8 Safety Directions

WARNING
Missing attention of operators or malfunctions
While steering or navigating the machine accidents may occur due to:
•The operator not paying attention to the surroundings (persons, ditches,
trafc, etc.), or
•Malfunctions (…of a system component, interference, etc).
Precautions:
▶The operator assures that the machine is operated, guided and monitored
by a qualied user (e.g. driver).
▶The user has to be able to take emergency measures, for example an
emergency stop.
WARNING
Incorrect fastening of the external antenna
Incorrect fastening of the external antenna to vehicles or transporters poses
the risk of the equipment being broken by mechanical inuence, vibration or
airstream. This may result in accident and physical injury.
Precautions:
▶Attach the external antenna professionally. The external antenna must be
secured additionally, for example by use of a safety cord. Ensure that the
mounting device is correctly mounted and able to carry the weight of the
external antenna (>1 kg) safely.
WARNING
Exposure of batteries to high mechanical stress, high ambient temper-
atures or immersion into uids
This can cause leakage, re or explosion of the batteries.
Precautions:
▶Protect the batteries from mechanical inuences and high ambient tem-
peratures. Do not drop or immerse batteries into uids.
WARNING
Inappropriate mechanical inuences to batteries
During the transport, shipping or disposal of batteries it is possible for inap-
propriate mechanical inuences to constitute a re hazard.
Precautions:
▶Before shipping the product or disposing it, discharge the batteries by the
product until they are at.
▶When transporting or shipping batteries, the person in charge of the
product must ensure that the applicable national and international rules
and regulations are observed.
▶Before transportation or shipping, contact your local passenger or freight
transport company.

2 Description of the System
2.1 Overview
The main purpose of all machine control products of the Leica iCON PA series
is to support machine drivers in recognising pedestrians or other vehicles mov-
ing around their vehicle, thus reducing the risk of accidents.
Leica iCON PA is an advanced personal alert system for machine drivers and
on-site personnel based on the Time-of-Flight principle (ToF) for distance ran-
ging.
Detection zones
iCON PA allows you to congure proximity limits for three different detection
zones around a machine (Fig. 1):
a)Far
b)Near
c)Close (danger zone)
As soon as a pedestrian enters one of these zones, both the pedestrian and
the machine driver are alerted by the alarm signal specied for this zone.
18024_001

c
Fig. 1: Detection zones and corresponding alarm signals
Personal alert system
Description of the System 17

Distance detection
iCON PA operates on Ultra-Wideband based on the IEEE802.15.4-2011 stand-
ard. The maximum range for detection is 50 m with an accuracy of ±20 cm and
a repeatability of less than 5 cm.
18025_001
ab
Fig. 2: Time-of-Flight principle and distance detection
a A machine anchor on the vehicle sends out a signal to which a pedestrian
tag responds. The distance between anchor and tag is calculated based
on the time it takes for the returning tag signal to reach the anchor.
b The distance ranging functionality requires a free line of sight between
the cooperating system components, that is, between machine anchor
and pedestrian tag.
2.2 System Components
Main system components
The main components of all Leica iCON PA systems are tags worn by pedestri-
ans and machine anchors mounted to vehicles and construction machines.
These main components perform the distance ranging. In addition to these
main components, a complete system consists of a display unit and, depend-
ing on the system conguration, a multipurpose antenna and a separate main
unit.
Anchor congurations
Each iCON PA system supports various anchor congurations, depending on
the target vehicle.
•A single-anchor conguration can be suitable for light vehicles and com-
pact construction machines like skid steers or forward-facing dumpers.
•A two-anchor conguration is more suitable for medium-size articulated
dump-trucks.
•When the host machine increases in size and complexity, use more than
two anchors. A multiple-anchor conguration ensures true 360° visibility
around the vehicle and helps to avoid blind spots.
