4 Warnings
• 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 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 using cameras.
• 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.
