3.1 Application area
Based on FMCW radar, the device monitors an area without contact and detects the distance and
speed of stationary and moving objects. Thresholds, switching limits and outputs can be defined.
The device is suitable for both mobile (sensor moves) and stationary (sensor is fixed) applications.
The dimension of the detection range of the device depends on the target object to be detected. The
detection ranges for defined targets (corner reflectors) are defined in the technical data sheet of the
device.
The setting of the device as well as the visualisation of the detection range can be done via the Vision
Assistant or moneo.
The application area of the device depends on the base frequency used and the country in
which it is operated. Applicable national approval restrictions must be checked prior to set-up of
the device. Country-specific features must be taken into account when operating the device.
Operation of the device is only permitted in the countries listed in the document “Radio
approval”. When operating the device in countries that are not on the list, interference with
protected frequency ranges may occur.
For USA, Canada:
Devices operating at a base frequency of 60 GHz are intended for static, immobile applications only. The device may move
within a fixed installation. This includes stationary applications for collision avoidance, level measurement, object detection,
flow measurement and area monitoring. The devices are not approved for
. The following devices belong to this
group:
• R1D102
Devices operating at a base frequency of 77 GHz are intended for
. Besides, the devices can be used for fixed
and mobile applications in airports in the USA and Canada. The following devices belong to this group:
• R1D200
For Europe:
Devices operating at a base frequency of 60 GHz can be used for fixed, mobile or portable applications, regardless of the spe-
cific application. The following devices belong to this group:
• R1D100
Devices operating at a base frequency of 77 GHz are intended for fixed and mobile transport and traffic telematics (TTT) appli-
cations only. This includes, for example, obstacle detection, monitoring of tunnels and level crossings and parking assistance.
The following devices belong to this group:
• R1D200
•
The device may only be operated in countries for which it has been approved.
•
If the device is passed on, the recipient must be informed of applicable national approval
restrictions.
