Safety Warning
WARNING: The Object Detection Radar System is not a substitute for
careful driving. Always be aware of surrounding pedestrians, cyclists, and
vehicles to prevent injuries and accidents.
FAQ:
Q: What should I do if the learning process fails?
A: If learning fails, the system will beep twice. Check the setup and try
again to ensure successful learning completion.
WARNING
To help prevent injuries, never use the Object Detection System as a
replacement for checking the surrounding pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles.
The Object Detection Radar System is not a replacement for careful driving.
System Overview
Object detection radar means a system to detect and inform the driver of the presence of objects in the close proximity blind-spot back of the vehicle, if deemed necessary based on manufacturer strategy, warn the driver of a potential collision.

Function description
Self-diagnosis
Basic function
When the key is turned to ON, the front radar sensor starts to work;
When the Reverse gear is engaged, the front and rear radar sensors both work.
The LED display will provide audible and visible warnings to the driver, the
warning principles as below:
- If there’s object being detected, the output cable will provide high level voltage; if there’s no object being detected, it will output float;
- If the reverse gear is engaged, the display will show the nearest distance of rear rear-detected object;
- Display will provide audible and visible warnings:
The display will show the distance of the detected object, and provide warning beep, according to the warning section; the warning sections are equally divided into 5 stages. Take the max. detection as 10m, the warning sections will be divided as below:
Note
- Above tracing LED display figure is an alarm distance 10m as a reference.
- No.3,4,5,6 color bar alarm showing segmentation can be setup by setup tool
- No.2 color bar alarm showing segmentation is the maximum alam distance value.
Learning function
When the installation position of the radar is not at the outermost side of
the vehicle, the radar is easy to detect the accessories of the vehicle or
vehicle body, which will result in false alarm. Therefore, in order not to
make false alarm, it is necessary to enter into the learning mode to make the
radar ignore the object.
Users need to follow the following steps to realize the learning function:
- Move the vehicle to an open area and confirm that there are no obstacles other than body accessories within (a*b)m of the radar;
- a1＞4*L1，and a1＞3m；
- b1＞W1+W2，and b1＞6m；
- Power on the system and wait for the completion of system self-diagnosis;
- Constantly press the setup button for 3.0s-4.5s, the buzzer will beep once, the display will show “L0”, and enter into the automatic learning function setup mode; Release the button, and then briefly press the key to make the display shows “L2”, the system enters into the automatic learning mode, and the learning results are shown after the learning process is completed. If “LS” is shown and beeps once, the learning is successful; if “LE” is shown and beeps twice, the learning is failed.
Display setup
Detection range setup
The detection range of the sensor is shown in the drawing below. For different vehicle models and conditions, the detection area can be configurated by a handheld setup tool:
- L1: Setup for the protruding object in the front of the vehicle , the distance from the sensor installation position to the front most part of the vehicle: default value=0m;
- L2: Warning distance: default value=10m (setup range 1-50m, accuracy 0.1m);
- W1: Right side detection width: default value=2m (setup range 1-5m, accuracy 0.1m);
- W2: Left side detection width: default value=2m (setup range 1-5m, accuracy 0.1m).
