10.5 Test Station (TS) Unit
10.5.1 RF Detections and Alarms
10.5.1.1 Alarm Components
The Test Station Unit comprises of the following alarm components:
Rotating Beacon Unit
• Identical to LV Rotating Beacon Unit
• Mounted near vehicle traffic areas (e.g. maintenance workshop, GO-LINE, refueling
station etc) for regular functional testing of all RF tagged objects
• Activated (flashing) when either HV (in gear) , LV, SO or TS is detected within the
programmed Detection Zone
• Alarms all RF tagged objects within the programmed Detection Zone
• Is alarmed by all other RF tagged objects within the programmed Detection Zone
• Provides HV & LV driver with visual confirmation
10.5.1.2 RF Detection Zones and Ranges
The Test Station 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.
10.5.1.3 Alarm Process
1. Visual alarm is generated only when either a HV (in gear), LV, SO or TS is detected
within the programmed Detection Zone.
2. Alarm automatically cancels when the HV, LV, SO or TS moves outside the Detection
Zone or HV out of gear.
10.5.1.4 Alarm Specifications
Alarm Conditions: HV (in gear), LV, SO 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, SO or TS moves outside of Detection Zone (or HV out of
gear)
Table 41: Test Station Alarm Specifications
10.5.2 Power On/Off
The Test Station is permanently powered ON and will only generate visual alarms when
either a HV (in gear), LV, SO or TS is detected within the TS Detection Zone.
12VDC, 60W power can be supplied either from a permanent mains powered supply,
battery pack, or solar energy power supply for remote locations.
