They detect stationary and moving objects, providing the driver with in-cab visual and audible warnings – alerting the operator whose attention cannot be focused on all danger areas. Backsense works effectively in harsh environments and in poor visibility including darkness, smoke and fog. It is imperative that Brigade Backsense® is fitted and commissioned by competent and trained technicians. The installer is responsible for the fitness for purpose of the overall system and adheres to relevant regulations and legislation. Operators of the vehicle to which the Brigade Backsense® system is fitted must be made fully aware of how to interpret the system so they will not be distracted by or rely completely on it. Distraction can cause accidents. The system is intended to aid the operator, who must still concentrate on operating the vehicle, obey traffic and local regulations and continue to use his/her own training, senses and other vehicle aids, such as mirrors, as would be done if the system were not in place. Nothing removes the responsibility of the operator to operate the vehicle in a proper and lawful manner. 1.1 System Functionality The Brigade Backsense® uses Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW). FMCW differs from pulsed radar in that an electromagnetic signal that is continuously transmitted. The frequency of the signal changes over time, generally in a sweep across a set bandwidth. Backsense® bandwidth is 24.068 – 24.218GHz. 1.2 Detection Distances The four available systems are as follows: * - Default settings Model (Part No.) Length (m) Each Zone Length (m) Width (m) Minimum Tolerance (m) BS-7030 (4527) 3.0 0.6 2.5 ±0.25 BS-7045 (4528) 4.5 0.9 3.5 ±0.25 BS-7060 (4529) 6.0 1.2 4.5 ±0.25 BS-8000 (4530) 3.0 – 30.0 *(10.0) 1.0 – 26.0 *(2.0m) 2.0 – 10.0 *(7.0m) ±0.75 BS-7030, 7045 & 7060 have fixed detection length and width divided into five equal detection zones. The buzzer and trigger output activate in all zones on detection. Stationary objects are detected from the start of the detection area up to 1.2m of the sensor. Any stationary object will not be detected inside 1.2m – 0.2m of the sensor unless the object or vehicle moves; detection to alert will take less than 0.2sec. Any object closer than 0.3m will not be detected. The BS-8000 uses the same fundamental operation as all the above systems but detection zone, blind zone, trigger length and buzzer starting zone are all configurable. Refer to section 5.0. Brigade Backsense® Installation Guide v1.2 (4555) Page 4 x4 2.0 System Components Sensor Display Extension Cable Fixing Kit Configurable system: as above and including Software CD Mini USB Cable 3.0 Hardware Installation Refer to the vehicle manufacturers bodybuilder guidelines for installation procedures and connectivity in all applications. Ensure the positive connections are fused at source. System connections are shown in the table below. Connect red and black to ignition and ground, grey connected to the activating trigger (e.g. reverse) and white is a ground output trigger which is active under detection (customisable on the BS-8000 system). System Connections RED Ignition +12/24v BLACK Ground GREY Activation trigger WHITE Ground trigger output 3.1 Installation Site The installation site, for calibration purposes, must be relatively flat without excessive deviation. Flat does not necessarily mean level; a sloping flat area may be acceptable as long as the vehicle does not lean excessively. 3.2 Sensor Mounting The sensor should be mounted in the upright position (Brigade logo in normal orientation) avoiding detection of the ground and any vehicle furniture where possible. This is critical on the non-configurable systems where obstacles can be ignored in the configurable system. The horizontal angle of the detection zone is 110° ±10°.and the vertical 12°±2°.
