Installation should be in accordance with the installation procedures defined by
GE Mining and must only be performed by authorised and qualified installers.
The CAS product is a driver’s aid and should not be relied upon as the primary
means of reducing the risks of high potential interactions. Interaction include
between Heavy Vehicles, Light Vehicles, infrastructure and personnel.
GPS based proximity detection may not operate when satellites are not fully visible
in the sky (e.g. in a deep mining pit near a high-wall or under a workshop roof).
Consideration should be given to supplementing GPS with RF proximity detection
and visual aids.
Alarm logic should be determined via site specific risk assessment based on the
end-users specified high risk interactions.
The CAS product does not take control of the vehicle although can provide inhibit
signals to prevent movement from a stationary position – implementation will
require approval from the vehicle OEM, vehicle owner and GE and a detailed risk
assessment conducted.
