Driver Controls and Instruments system is on and the requested driver’s card has not been inserted. IMPORTANT: The system is disabled in turns with a radius of less than 750 feet (230 meters) and when the brakes are applied. 9. The yellow alert light illuminates when an object is detected within the system’s maximum range of 350 feet (107 meters) on a straight road. Range is reduced in curves by the turn radius of the curve. This light also illuminates when the proximity alarm threshold is crossed. 13.
If your vehicle is traveling less than 2 mph (3 km/h) and an object is detected less than 15 feet (4.5 meters) in front of your vehicle, and the closing rate is more than 1/2 mph (1 km/h), the yellow alert light will illuminate and a low-frequency double tone will sound. This is the proximity alert. 10. The yellow and orange alert lights illuminate when your vehicle is within a 3-second following interval behind another vehicle in the same lane. If you are within a 2-second following interval, and closing on the vehicle ahead, a warning tone will also sound. NOTE: All warnings apply only to objects within the maximum detection range and in your lane.
Proximity alert tones and vehicle-closing 1/2- second and 2-second following interval tones are configured items. All tones are disabled in sharp turns or when the brakes are applied. If the con- figuration permits, the 3-second and 2-second alert levels may be adjusted with the range control knob. A single low-frequency tone sounds when a system failure is detected. A medium-frequency tone sounds when the volume control level is changed. Successful downloading of Eaton Ve- hicle Information Management System (EVIMS) data will cause a double tone to sound. Unsuc- cessful downloading will cause a low-frequency tone to sound. 11.
The yellow, orange, and red alert lights illuminate when you are 1 second (and less than 1 second) behind a vehicle. If the vehicle ahead is opening the interval, no tone will sound. If you are closing the interval, double tones will sound. Within a 1/2- second or less following interval, opening or clos- ing, the tones will repeat twice per second. 12. If a stationary vehicle or object, or an object moving less than 3.4 mph (5.5 km/h) in the same lane is detected within 220 feet (67 meters) and within 3 seconds, all three alert lights will illuminate and the double tones will sound. This warning overrides all others and is not affected by the range control knob setting. 3.35
