SYSTEM OPERATION
6 SYSTEM OPERATION
The solution offered by the EGOpro Safe MOVE 4.0 proximity warning & alert system minimises the potential for accidents between forklifts and operators on foot in common working areas. Through visual and sound alarms, the system warns the driver, in real time, of the presence and position of pedestrian workers wearing active PPE who enter the danger zones around the vehicle in motion. With the system, the driver can promptly take the most appropriate safety measures to avoid hitting other pedestrian workers or other vehicles. Thanks to a multifunction sensor, the system detects pedestrian workers wearing a TAG, in two stages:
6.1 PEDESTRIAN WORKER PRE-WARNING
PRE-WARNING| The activation range can be configured up to 50 m with the control of a relay contact.
By means of a visual and sound alarm, the system warns the driver about the presence and position of the pedestrian worker.
6.2 PEDESTRIAN WORKER WARNING
WARNING| The activation range can be configured up to 5-m with the control of a contact relay.
By means of a visual and sound alarm, the system warns the driver about the presence of the pedestrian worker with a red circle and by switching on the lateral LEDs.
6.3 VEHICLE-VEHICLE WARNING
VEHICLE-VEHICLE WARNING| When a vehicle equipped with the EGOpro Safe MOVE 4.0 system gets into the sensor
activation area. The activation range can be configured up to 100 m. By means of a visual and sound alarm, the system warns the driver about the presence and position of the other vehicle.

negative pole towards the circuit. While replacing the battery in the helmet tag, be careful not to damage or disconnect the small coaxial cables connected to the circuit board.
Once the battery has been replaced, make sure that the Tag has turned on correctly. Depending on the version, it can emit a long initial sound followed by three short sounds, or only one long flash followed by three short flashes of the LED on the board.
If this does not happen, the device has not started correctly; contact the manufacturer.
Put the tag back into the slot at the correct position as shown in the figure opposite.
Position the soft rubber piece back into place, and then press it in all directions so that it correctly adheres to the rigid piece.
Battery life depends on the daily activations of the tag when it is near a vehicle equipped with the anti-collision system.
Typically, there are three identified scenarios; the following table summarises the battery life associated to each of them:

INSTALLATION ON THE VEHICLE
8.2 POSITIONING THE DEVICES
To position the devices, take into account the operation characteristics of the system, the mechanical restrictions and the IP protection degree of the devices. For these reasons, two categories are identified:
Devices outside the driver’s cabin
Sensors are usually positioned outside the driver’s cabin, except for
exceptional cases such as exposure to high temperatures.
Devices inside the driver’s cabin
CPU and Display: due to their function and the IP protection degree, they
must be inside the driver’s cabin or, in any case, in a protected position.
The HUB can be positioned either outside or inside the driver’s cabin due to both its operation and its high degree of protection.
The 433MHz whip aerial antenna, which is present on the HUB, must be fitted outside
The Display and the Sensors must be correctly oriented: for this reason, they are supplied with a mounting plate and a mechanical joint onto which the support that is necessary for holding the device must be fitted.
The joint, which is made up of 2 U-shaped mechanical pieces, has been designed to be easily connected to the plate that is present on the devices.
Find below the heights for the possible holes to be used for fixing it to the plate.

15
INSTALLATION ON THE VEHICLE
8.2.1 Positioning the control unit (CPU)
The CPU is the basic element of the system and it can be positioned at any point inside the driver's cabin. The position of the CPU must not obstruct the driver’s and the vehicle operability, and it should be handy to connect the HUB and the Display. To fix the CPU, use the 4 holes on the box that can be accessed by removing the device cover.
When choosing the position, keep in mind that there are usable outputs on the CPU to make it conveniently accessible and not to be obstructed during assembly. For example, the USB port can be used to download data and for servicing.
The CPU has an IP 20 protection degree, and the connection cable is 2.50 m long.

INSTALLATION ON THE VEHICLE
When installing the Display and
laying the connection cable, be careful so that they do not disturb the driver’
8.2.2 Positioning the Display
The Display must be positioned inside the driver’s cabin in accordance with the driver’s visibility requirements and taking into account the CPU position: the connection cable between Display and CPU is 2.5 m long.
movements and the driver’s visibility remains unaffected.
The Display has an IP 20 protection degree. Position it in the cabin, in an area protected from the elements.
The cable that carries the video signal from the CPU to the Display is double-shielded; therefore, handle the cable carefully and avoid bending radii of less than 5 cm in order to avoid damaging the internal conductors, in particular the ends on the connector side and the Display housing inlet.
If the display is mounted upside down to facilitate installation, the rotation of the video can be changed from the advanced settings of the system (contact technical support for help).
8.2.3 Positioning the sensors
The basic Kit is made up of 3 sensors that are sufficient to cover small and medium-sized vehicles. The installation must optimise coverage around the vehicle taking into account the type of mobility of the vehicle. The most common installation includes 2 Sensors on the front/loading side, driven forward, and 1 Sensor on the rear side/driven in reverse. NOTE: the number of sensors can be extended up to 8 by adding suitable components (see section 8.5).
Find below the reference diagram for a counterbalanced forklift truck.
The sensors must be so positioned on the perimeter of the vehicle to have maximum visibility between Sensors and TAG. On small/medium-sized vehicles, they are usually positioned on the uprights immediately below the roof and with a 25 ° downward inclination.

These materials and information are intended solely for the purpose designated and may not be used otherwise.
It is not permitted to disclose or reproduce them in whole or in part without express written permission.
17
INSTALLATION ON THE VEHICLE
To position the external antenna, also refer to the HUB connections (see section
8.3.4
).
NOTE: the mechanical joint supplied can be used to obtain the desired inclination. Front sensors must have a slight orientation towards the outside. For example, for a counterbalanced vehicle, they must be positioned outside the moulding of the fork/gripper holder mounting, and they must have an orientation angle towards the outside of around 20°.
Be careful not to place the sensors behind obstacles such as the turret of the forks or the vehicle chassis. For the best operation of the sensors, they must be installed in areas that are as free as possible.
8.2.4 Positioning the HUB
The HUB can be positioned at any point inside or outside the driver’s cabin, even in a hidden area, but the external RF antenna (whip aerial antenna), connected to the HUB by means of a 1.5m-long cable, must be outside the driver’s cabin in vertical position.
The position of the HUB must not obstruct the driver’s and the vehicle operability, and it should be handy to connect the Sensors and the CPU.

8.6 STOPPING DISTANCES AND ACTIVATION DISTANCES
When installing a safety supporting system to be used for reducing the risk of man-vehicle and vehicle-vehicle collisions, it is necessary to take into account which activation distances have to be considered for the system operation. The purpose of this is to adjust the system so that a truly helpful signal can be given to the pedestrian worker. As a matter of fact, the distance at which a pedestrian worker wearing a Tag or a vehicle has to be detected in order to give effective aid for the prevention of collisions depends on many factors such as:
Shape and dimension of the vehicle. Reaction time of the detection system Reaction time of the driver Deceleration distance Conditions of the ground
Even though formulating an accurate mathematical model of the vehicle stop physical phenomenon is very complex, it can be schematised following a simplified model in order to draw attention to the main physical phenomena involved.
8.7 Vehicle deceleration and driver's response distances
The space/distance a vehicle needs to stop safely must be clearly assessed. Firstly, evaluate the deceleration distance- the distance the forklift truck needs to reach zero speed starting from a given speed from the instant the braking system is actuated. In turn, this space depends on the speed of the forklift truck, the maximum deceleration set in the parameters of the vehicle, and the response time of the systems of the forklift truck. Deceleration, as well as maximum speed, can be set to different values depending on the type of load, vehicle and ground. The maximum distances for industrial vehicles are standardised by ISO 6292 that sets the maximum stopping distances from the instant when the braking system is actuated. Such values will be taken as reference. The driver's reaction distance is to be added to the acceleration distance afterwards. Such distance is associated to the time between the alert and the driver's action stop the vehicle. As a normal practice, this response time is estimated in 1 second. By way of an example, find below two charts with the values referring to deceleration space and total stopping space for two types of vehicles defined in the standard.

8.8 System activation distances. Setting the powers transmitted
The section above dealt with how to calculate stopping distances for an industrial vehicle. When estimating the distances at which a tag potentially in danger of collision should be detected, a distance margin should be considered as well. A zero distance cannot and should not be set. Besides, the detection system has reaction times that have to be taken into account. To these distances identified, we should add a value that can be calculated according to the chart below.
Speed [km/h] operational margin [m]
3 0.6 4 0.8 5 1.0 6 1.2 7 1.4 8 1.6
9 1.8 10 1.9 11 2.1 12 2.3 13 2.5 14 2.7 15 2.9 16 3.1 17 3.3 18 3.5 19 3.7 20 3.9 21 4.1 22 4.3 23 4.5 24 4.7
Now the detection distance we want can be calculated. For instance, if a system is installed in a forklift truck falling within category A1, with a maximum speed of 12 km/h and manual braking, the total braking distance will be 7.7 m; some further
2.3 m should be added as margin, to a total distance of 10 meters. Once the desired distance is defined, adjust the power of the relevant sensors until a safe coverage for the distance calculated is guaranteed. The distance previously identified is that from the interfering worker to the point of contact that is closest to the forklift truck, which in a scenario of a front impact with a forklift truck is the forks. Since the distance between the sensors and the first point of contact is not known a priori, and since the position of the sensors may vary a lot, check the activation distance by applying control tests. Keep in mind that the low that governs the power set and the activation distance is not linear. Find below some graphs that show the progress of the ratio between these two values for both long range (pre-warning) and short range (warning).

OPERATION MODES
10.2 PEDESTRIAN WORKER’S TAG DISPLAY ALARM: PRE-WARNING
The presence of the pedestrian worker wearing an active TAG within the PRE-WARNING activation range is signalled to the driver via the display that shows the position of the pedestrian worker around the vehicle.
Lighted up sectors are associated to the sensor and they are coloured according to the sensor detecting the Tag, and so the pedestrian worker’s position. The sector corresponding to the pedestrian worker’s position will remain YELLOW as long as the Tag is in this area. If several pedestrian workers are found around the vehicle simultaneously at different positions, several sectors will be lighted up on the display corresponding to the pedestrian workers.
The visual alarm is accompanied by two sound alarms that draw the driver’s attention. The first alarm, which is loud, is emitted when the pedestrian worker enters the PRE-WARNING area, and the second alarm, which is low, reminds that the pedestrian worker is still within the detection area. In addition to a visual and sound alarm on the display, the system also activatesa a relay of the CPU.
All these alarms can be configured in the ALARM CONFIGURATION section.

10.3 PEDESTRIAN WORKER’S TAG DISPLAY ALARM: WARNING
OPERATION MODES
The presence of the pedestrian worker wearing an active TAG within the WARNING activation range is signalled to the driver via the display by means of a clearly visible red ring. The PRE-WARNING alarm indication remains visible and helps the driver locate the personnel on foot. The red ring will remain lit up, together with the two lateral LEDs in the display, as long as the Tag is in this area.
The visual alarm is accompanied by two sound alarms that draw the driver’s attention. The first alarm, which is loud, is emitted when the pedestrian worker enters the WARNING area, and the second alarm, which is low, reminds that the pedestrian worker is still within the detection area. In addition to a visual and sound alarm on the display, the system also activates a second relay of the CPU and two relays present on the HUB.
All these alarms can be configured in the ALARM CONFIGURATION section.

10.4 SENSORS AND HUB DIAGNOSIS
Active sensors are displayed matching their position on the vehicle. Only fitted and configured sensors are shown on the display. The system is equipped with a self-diagnosis function that constantly checks the correct operation of the devices. If the icon of the sensor is GREEN, it means that the diagnosis system did not detect any anomalies on that specific sensor.
The system signals any anomalies by illuminating the seat and the icon of the sensor that is not working in red. Moreover, the type of error detected by the system is shown for 5 seconds at the bottom left-side corner. A sound warning is reproduced together with the visual alarm. The error message can also be subsequently displayed by pressing the red icon corresponding to the sensor in alarm.
The anomalies that can be detected during self-diagnosis are the following:
Communication Error: no communication between CPU and HUB and/or HUB and sensor. Microwave Error: the sensor may not be able to activate the Tag in pre-warning mode (yellow) and be detected
by other vehicles.
Low Frequency Error: the sensor may not be able to activate the Tag in warning mode (red). RF Sensor Error: the sensor may not be able to detect the presence of other vehicles. Radio Frequency Error: the HUB may not be able to receive the activation of the Tags.
does not detect whether the RF antenna of the HUB and/or one or several internal antennas of a sensor are not connected, as it may happen after one of the components of the system undergoes a strong impact. It is therefore advisable to thoroughly check the system on a regular basis following the procedure specified in the maintenance section (chapter 23).
