1.

 

Clean the sensor face of any accumulation of dirt, mud, snow, ice, or debris. 

2.

 

Visually inspect the attached wiring and cable and verify that they are properly

 

secured,  not  chafing  or  dangling  free  where  they  could  become  snagged  and

 

damaged.  Inspect  the  Radar  Sensor  and  Operator  Display  Module  and  verify

 

that they are securely attached to the vehicle. 

3.

 

Set the park brakes, start the vehicle, depress and hold the vehicle brake. 

4.

 

Verify the green “POWER” light is illuminated on the in-cab display. 

5.

 

The area to the side of the vehicle should be clear of obstacles for a distance of

 

6  meters  (20ft).  If  the  display  shows  any  indicator  other  than  the  green  light

 

then there are objects to the side of the vehicle that will interfere with the test.

 

Move the vehicle to a clear area and proceed. 

6.

 

The  assistant  should  move  to  approximately  2  meters  (6ft)  to  the  rear  of  the

 

sensor  in  sight  of  the  operator's  mirrors.  He  should  then  walk  toward  the

 

centerline of the sensor parallel  to the vehicle,  while  the operator notes when

 

the  display  detection  LED  illuminates,  signifying  the  sensor  has  detected  the

 

object. 

7.

 

The  assistant  should  continue  walking  through  the  area  at  the  side  of  the

 

vehicle while the operator notes the area that detection occurs. 

8.

 

Now  face  the  sensor  and  walk  from  the  center  of  the  sensor  straight  back,

 

away  from  the  vehicle.  When  the  display  detection  LED  quits  illuminating  the

 

detection limit has been reached. 

9.

 

Move halfway back towards the sensor and remain still for a few seconds, the

 

display  detection  LED  should  stay  lit,  demonstrating  the  system’s  ability  to 
detect a still object. 

10.

 

The assistant should walk the complete side of the vehicle noting the detection

 

edges of the entire coverage area. 

11.

 

After  the test  the assistant needs  to  communicate to  the operator  the  details

 

on the detection zone.
