9.4.2.6 Using the PDA Display
On Vehicle Start-up
Immediately after starting the vehicle and before putting it into motion, perform a quick check of the Display’s status bar.
Check that none of the icons are Red, if so your CAS GPS system is not functioning correctly and its operation cannot be
assured!
Vehicle in Motion
When your vehicle is moving you can operate using your normal safe operating procedures. The Display will sound an
alarm to gain your attention if there is another vehicle that is getting too close. A quick glance at the display will show
the location, type, ID, heading and speed of other vehicles.
If any of the CAS Icons are red the system may not be operating correctly.
On Startup, the GPS will assume you are facing 'North' until a heading has been
established by forward movement.
If a nearby vehicle’s beams are overlapping your vehicles beam an audible
alarm will be sounded. Only when your vehicle is stationary may you silence the
alarm by touching anywhere on the screen.
You cannot silence the alarm whilst your vehicle is in motion.
