Installation & Operating Guide

• An object will cause a detection data transmission in less than 0.15 seconds (for moving

objects) and 0.25 seconds (for static objects).

• After turning on power the system takes around 1 second to be active. There is no

standby mode.

Notes:

• For distances below 1.3m (detection with relative speed only) or below 0.3m (no

detection) the space covered in general by radar systems is very small. In this scenario,

Backsense

may not be the most suitable solution and therefore Brigade recommends

adding an additional or alternative detection system depending on the vehicle’s

application. For example, Brigade Backscan

based on ultrasonic sensing technology,

offers superior detection at close ranges.

• Brigade Backsense

systems remain unaffected even when multiple sensors are

operating in the same area or on the same vehicle. Proximity and overlapping detection

areas cause no adverse effect on Backsense’s detection properties.

Tip: Brigade Backsense

detection is generally better when there is relative speed between

the sensor and the objects and when the direction of approach is perpendicular to the

sensor front face.
