• When operating at night-time, check that the DIM function has set to minimum
brightness (refer to section 10.1.8 for details).
• Check automatic camera switching operation on gear selection (if programmed at
time of installation).
15.1.4 Operational Checks
• Drive past the Test Station (TS) and verify detection on the Heavy Vehicle Display
Unit (TS code) and the activation of the Test Station rotating beacon.
15.1.5 Shutdown Inspection
• Switch OFF the Heavy Vehicle Display Unit screen by pressing the ● key when
unattended. This applies only when the RF tagging option has been fitted (CAS-
RF
®
) where all equipment is permanently powered from the vehicle battery. If
however this operation is not conducted, the Display Unit screen will automatically
switch OFF after a preset time period (if programmed during Installation - refer to
the CAS Installation manual for details) thereby conserving battery life. Camera only
installations (CAS-CAM
®
) are powered from the vehicle auxiliary circuit and the
equipment will automatically shutdown when the ignition is switched OFF.
15.1.6 Maintenance Requirements
Routine Checks
• Inspect the clarity of vision from each camera on the Heavy Vehicle Display Unit
and where affected by the build up of foreign material, clean the camera unit
window with a window cleaning spray and cloth. Approved access methods must
only be used when cleaning cameras located at heights.
• Where camera lenses have been scratched severely affecting image quality,
arrange for repair with the approved AMT Service Agent.
• Check that the antenna is securely screwed onto the RF Unit enclosure and located
in the upright position. Tighten and straighten by hand if necessary (secure using
Loctite 243).
• Check all equipment and cabling is secure. Re-secure if necessary.
Notes:
1. Damage to cables effecting signal connectivity will automatically be detected by the
Display Unit and reported as errors (refer to section 16.2 ‘System Error Messages’
for details).
2. To disable Heavy Vehicle & other tagged object alarms during workshop
Maintenance, refer to section 12.10 ‘Heavy Vehicle Maintenance Mode’.
