10.4 Mobile Plant & Equipment (HV) Unit
10.4.1 RF Detections and Alarms
10.4.1.1 Alarm Components
The Mobile Plant & Equipment Unit comprises of the following alarm components:
Rotating Beacon Unit
• Identical to LV Rotating Beacon Unit
• Mounted on Mobile Plant & Equipment Unit
• Activated (flashing) when either HV (in gear), LV or TS is detected within the
programmed Detection Zone
• Provides HV driver with visual confirmation
10.4.1.2 RF Detection Zones and Ranges
The Mobile Plant & Equipment Unit can be field programmed for a single detection zone
with programmable range / radius typically 0 – 80 m (+/- 20% accuracy).
Refer to sections 5 & 7 for more details on Detection Zones and Alarm Scenarios.
10.4.1.3 Alarm Process
1. Visual alarm is generated only when either a HV (in gear), LV or TS is detected within
the programmed Detection Zone.
2. Alarm automatically cancels when the HV, LV or TS moves outside the Detection Zone
or HV out of gear.
10.4.1.4 Alarm Specifications
Alarm Conditions: HV (in gear), LV or TS detected within programmed Detection Zone
Alarm Zones: Single programmable Detection Zone
Alarm Output: Flashing beacon
Alarm Tones: Not Applicable
Alarm Cancellation: HV, LV or TS moves outside of Detection Zone (or HV out of gear)
Table 40: Mobile Plant & Equipment Alarm Specifications
10.4.2 Power On/Off
The Mobile Plant & Equipment Unit is normally powered from the machine ignition and will
only generate visual alarms when either a HV (in gear) or TS is detected within the
Detection Zone.
12VDC, 60W power can be supplied from the machine battery via the ignition switch.
