4.1.1. Determine location (LH/RH) function
The BSD Sensor shall determine by the address input pin whether it is mounted
on the left side or right side of the vehicle.
The BSD Sensor shall be reprogrammable to be able to be used on the side on
which it is mounted (based on the address pin).

The “detect objects” function shall be operational within a few seconds after power
supply is stable. Diagnostics will have been performed within this time frame.

Any licensable vehicle (the smallest licensable vehicle is defined as a 125cc
motorcycle with rider) with dimensions that meet or exceed the following criteria
is
considered an object of interest:
•
length:
2.0m
•
width at its widest point:
0.8m
•
height:
1.1m
4.1.2.3. Alert zone definition
Alert zone could differ due to significant differences in the mounting position. The
