Volvo FM11/13 E5 EPB RW1 Installation Guide

The MAX-SAFE Reverse Watch® 2.0 solution is an advanced reversing aid option that utilises an advanced radar to detect people & objects in blind spots, and brakes the vehicle if an object is detected in the pre-defined Danger Zone.

The MAX-SAFE Reverse Watch® 2.0 system gathers information from the vehicle’s BBM module CAN data and installed Radar Sensor. The system looks at the radar system and, if a signal from the radar is present, it will send a CAN command to the Volvo BBM Electronics to restrict the throttle, apply the park brake, and to neutralise the transmission. The system will also not operate at speeds above 8km/h, at which the proprietary Volvo electronics systems will restrict any brake request from the MAX-SAFE system.

This installation guide provides instructions on how to install the MAX-SAFE Reverse Watch 2.0® into 2019 onwards Volvo FM11 & FM13 Series E5 vehicles with Electronic Park Brake.

If this system is to be installed into a vehicle with a hooklift or trailer isolation, please refer to the relevant additional documents either Installation Guide – MAX-SAFE Reverse Watch® Body-not-Home Option or Installation Guide – MAX-SAFE Reverse Watch® Trailer Isolation.

For how to operate the Reverse Watch 2.0® system, please refer to the document Operational Functionality Guide – MAX-SAFE Reverse Watch® 2.0 System LCD Screen, and/or Operational Functionality Guide – MAX SAFE Reverse Watch® 2.0 – Body-not-Home
