Forward Looking Radars

Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems is the sole service
support provider for Bendix™ VORAD® VS-400 Forward
Looking Radars (FLRs), and Driver Interface Units (DIUs).
As a result, only the Bendix® ACom® Diagnostics software

(version 6.4 or later) is authorized to be used to service
the system.

Use of any other software — including any previously-used
programs, such as the Eaton® Roadranger® software — is
no longer permitted, and can potentially result in system
malfunction(s). The practice of reprogramming the radar
or DIU using non-approved software is NOT permitted by
Bendix and any warranty claims resulting from the use of
non-approved programs will NOT be honored.

Please refer to BW2771, the VORAD® VS-400 Troubleshooting
Guide, for detailed technical information and download the
latest free Bendix ACom Diagnostics software from the
support area of the Bendix website (at www.bendix.com).
