2 Safety
This chapter concerns your own safety and the safety of the system operator.
Please read this chapter carefully before you begin working with TPS.
2.1 Qualified safety personnel
The TPS must only be mounted, commissioned, and maintained by adequately qualified
personnel.
A qualified person
has sufficient skills in the field of the respective equipment based on their technical
training and experience and
has been instructed by the manufacturer in system operation and all applicable safety
guidelines and
is familiar with all relevant country-specific occupational safety regulations, work safety
regulations, guidelines, and generally accepted technical rules and standards (e.g.,
DIN standards, VDE regulations, country-specific rules) to such an extent that he/she
is able to evaluate the safe condition of the power-operated equipment and if he/she
has access to and has read the operating instructions.
2.2 Applications of the system
TPS is a driver assistance system for haul trucks in surface mining. It consists of three
LiDAR sensors, a control cabinet, GPS and an interactive operator display.
The system warns the operator of possible collisions, entering hazardous areas (black
spots) and departure of the road (RDW).
During the operation of the truck, the TPS will constantly monitor the surrounding of the
vehicle for obstacles. If an obstacle is detected in one or more of the configured warning
zones, the zone violation is reported to the operator visually and audibly.
When the truck enters a pre-defined black spot like a hazardous intersection, the crusher
or workshop area, the system indicates this by a visual and audible alarm as well.
In case the truck comes to close or too far away from the bund wall the road departure
warning function alerts the operator with an visually and acoustically alarm.
TPS only detects objects which are visible in the measurement plane for the LiDAR
sensor. Therefore, the LiDAR sensor must have a free view of the area to be monitored.
Using TPS means that hazardous situations, such as vehicles, equipment, infrastructure,
unintentional road departure, hazard areas or dangerous queuing up situations are
detected in good time and that accidents during operating are avoided.

3.3 System functionality
The TPS is a driver assistance system for proximity detection and collision awareness for
heavy mining trucks. The system warns the operator of possible collisions, entering
hazardous areas (black spots) and departure of the road (RDW).
During the operation of the truck, the TPS will constantly monitor the surrounding of the
vehicle for obstacles. If such an obstacle is detected in one or more of the configured
warning zones, the zone violation is reported to the operator visually and audibly.
When the truck enters a predefined black spot like a hazardous intersection, the crusher
or workshop area, the system indicates this by a visual and audible alarm as well.
In case the truck comes to close or too far away from the left bund wall the road departure
warning function alerts the operator with an visually and acoustically alarm as well.
3.3.1 Front collision warning
The LD-MRS HD Front 3D LiDAR sensor monitors the area in front of the truck. It raises an
alarm when an obstacle is violating one of the 3 warning zones (green, yellow, red).
The range of the frontal warning zones is adapted automatically to the current driving
speed of the truck. Speed information is generated by the GPS receiver. In case GPS is
currently not available TPS uses as fall back the so called “low speed warning zones”.

3.3.2 Rear End collision warning
The rear end collision warning supports the operator while he is driving in reverse gear
with low speed like when parking, unloading and reversing to a shovel.
The area directly behind the truck is monitored by the rear sensor. The LD-MRS HD Rear
3D LiDAR sensor scans the area behind the wheels and watches for obstacles like walls,
light or heavy vehicles or other mine site equipment that violate the light curtain by their
height.
The rear surveillance is activated only while the truck is in reverse gear. The wheels are
detected by the system and the measured points of the wheels are hidden.
Fig. 10: Rear End collision warning
3.3.3 Road Departure Warning
The Road Departure Warning (RDW) function monitors the distance between the truck and
the left roadside barrier, i.e. bund walls. If the truck violates the set safety distances to
either side, a warning is issued to the driver. Broken bund wall or big rocks at the mine site
are be filtered automatically by the system for a smooth operation. The road boarder is
detected by the 2D LiDAR sensor LMS151 RDW.
Fig. 11: Road Departure Warning Function with In-Lane Symbol
The 2D LiDAR sensor must identify the bund wall to activate this function. Two green
blocks to the left and right of the truck on the display are indicating that the truck is in
lane.
RDW Pause Signal
The system provides a pause signal input. The signal is muting the alarm unit for the
following 30 seconds.

RDW Flash Lights (Optional)
Two relay outputs are provided on two 2-wire cables for connection to external RDW signal
lights on the left and right front of the truck.
If the truck is in lane, both RDW lights are illuminated continuously
If the truck is moving unintentionally too close to the left bund wall, only the right light is
illuminated. The left RDW light will not be illuminated anymore.
In case of unintentional read departure to the right (center of the lane), only the left
RDW light is illuminated. The right RDW light is not illuminated anymore. This informs
truck drivers in the opposite direction that the truck is leaving the lane.
3.3.4 Black Spot Warning
TPS provides a function to mark mine site areas with GPS positions. Each GPS position
defines a position in world coordinates with a circular area around it. This area is called
“black spot” (1). This function can be used for two purposes:
On mine site may be locations where the road departure warning system has no usable
roadside barrier as a side reference. These locations may be crossroads,
loading/unloading or construction areas. These areas may be marked by their positions,
disabling the RDW function in their vicinity and thus suppressing false warnings.
Also the position is used for “black spot” marking and identification. Black spots are
hazardous areas like intersections, construction areas, crushers and workshops. TPS
warns the operator when the truck is entering a black spot to raise operator’s attention.
If the black spot is activated for the area the truck is currently placed or driving, the GPS
position is stored and a black spot with the radius of 80m (by default) is created and
stored.
Inside black spot areas, the driver may also disable all acoustic warnings (2). Therefore,
the speaker-icon is shown while the truck is inside the black spot area. Pressing this icon
disables all sound output.
The sound output is automatically turned on again when leaving the black spot area. This
function may be used to mute TPS while the truck is in maintenance in a workshop.
Note that for the correct function of black spots, GPS must be available.

Before mounting the TPS components on the truck, it is recommended that the functional
readiness of the devices should be checked.
1. Place the components on a table.
2. Connect the components according to the wiring diagram (see chapter 5.1 Wiring plan).
3. Establish the supply voltage and check the general operational readiness of the
components (see chapter 6.1 Launching the system).
It is recommended that the length of the cable should be checked in advance.
The control cabinet is equipped with fuses both in the 24 V and ground voltage supply
lines. If any of these fuses blow, disconnect from power immediately and check for the
cause.
4.2 Mounting the LiDAR sensor
The reliable and problem-free operation of the system depends primarily on the proper
mounting and alignment of the LiDAR sensor.
Be sure to closely observe the following notes during mounting:
Mount the LiDAR sensor so that it is protected from dirt and damage.
Ensure that the field of vision of the entire optics cover is not restricted.
Always mount the LiDAR sensors such that you are able to insert and remove the
connectors.
Avoid excessive shock and vibration loading on the LiDAR sensor.
In the event of heavy vibration, prevent the fixing screws from accidentally coming loose
using screw-locking devices.
The fine alignment is carried out later during the commissioning with the support of a
setup assistant (see chapter 6.4 Configuring the LiDAR sensors).
Make sure that the screws are easily accessible for fine alignment.
