Option Benefits
Vehicle Identification • Positive confirmation of ‘AT-RISK’ objects being
detected. HV operator can make specific radio call
for confirmation before moving from start-up or
approving LV to overtake.
CAS Data Logging / Safety
Audit Trail
• Time & date stamped safety audit trail
• Track & manage HV-HV & HV-LV non-compliance
• Data could be sent to Dispatch in real-time using
existing Fleet Management Systems
Non-Beacon Light Vehicle RF
Unit
• Eliminates night vision glare from beacon (originally
required for positive confirmation of LV by HV
operator. No longer required with Vehicle I.D. being
displayed on camera monitor)
• Option to add external beacon of clients selection
(12VDC @ 5A maximum)
Blind Side RF Units (LHS &

preset speed on haul roads

travel (forward/reverse) and now speed.
Road Junction Warning System • Long range RF unit (300m) used to detect HV
approaching road junction / intersection for
triggering warning lights for other vehicles.
