Operational Functionality - Reverse Watch 2.0 Generic

The MAX-SAFE Reverse Watch system is an advanced reversing aid option for the MAX-SAFE Anti-Rollaway Brake System. The MAX-SAFE Reverse Watch utilises a high quality, programmable system to detect people and objects in blind spots, and, in combination with the MAX-SAFE Brake system, stops the vehicle in the event an object is detected in a pre-defined 'Danger Zone'.

The 'Danger Zone' is calibrated by default to output a trigger if it detects an object within 3m directly behind the vehicle or within approximately 1.3 meters on either side of the centre mounted position of the radar sensor.

If an object is detected in the 'Danger Zone', the radar sends an output signal to the MAX-SAFE ECU, which activates the MAX-SAFE Anti-Rollaway Brake System and applies the vehicle park brake.

The radar monitors a zone of 5-6 metres behind the vehicle with the operation of:

Operation in Reverse	Warning Symbol	Warning Signal
System Active	No Flashing	No signal
System in Warning Mode Objected detected within 5 metres	Green - No Flashing	Signal every 1 sec
System in Alert Mode Objected detected within 4 metres	Yellow - Flash every 2 sec	Signal every 0.5 sec
System in Danger Mode Objected detected within 3 metres	Red - Flash every 1 sec	Solid tone

The park brake will NOT apply if an object is detected in the 'Danger Zone' whilst the Pause/Over-ride mode is active.

Always ensure it is safe to reverse through the use of mirrors and other reversing aids.

The MAX-SAFE Reverse Watch system is designed to operate optimally at a vehicle speed of 8km/h or lower.

The system WILL NOT BRAKE over 15km/h.
