The sensor’s horizontal field of view is +/- 75 degrees and the vertical field
of view is +/- 10 degrees. For optimal performance, the sensor should
protrude beyond any other portion of the vehicle.
Important!
Before permanently installing the PreView® Side Defender™ Radar on the
vehicle, verify that the selected sensor mounting location provides a clear
detection zone. Take the vehicle to a clear area, temporarily attach the sensor
in the proposed mounting location, apply power to the system, and verify that
nothing is being detected.
Sensor Mounting Procedure
PRECO® Electronics supplies a 90 degree mounting bracket for the Side
Defender™ radar. If the provided 90°bracket is not appropriate, please contact
PRECO® Electronics
If mounting directly to the vehicle, follow the procedure outlined below.
1.
Select the appropriate sensor mounting location in Figure 8.
2.
The standard mounting configuration is with ‘Side Defender™’ text, as
shown in Figure 1.
3.
Using the bracket as a drill template, scribe position marks through the
holes. Drill 1/4” (6mm) holes centered at the marks.
4.
A 1.5” (40mm) diameter clearance hole may be required for the sensor
connector and mating cable connector.
5.
Secure the sensor to the vehicle with the four supplied #10-24 UNC
button head screws, washers, and locking nuts or equivalent. Apply a maximum
torque of 22 lb-inch (25 kg-cm) when securing the sensor.
