Example of object detection coverage
If the detection area is not approximately 12 m (40 ft) long by 8 m (26 ft) wide, or the coverage area contains holes, adjust the angles of the brackets for the object detection sensors. Refer to the Systems Operation Troubleshooting Testing and Adjusting, M0073198, "Object Detection Sensor - Adjust" section of this manual for additional information regarding the adjustment of the brackets.Note: If the detection area is larger than the dimensions listed above, adjustment of the object detection sensors is not required.Operate the machine to determine if additional adjustment is required.Articulated Truck Calibration
This procedure is used in order to calibrate the object detection sensors. The object detection sensors must be calibrated if any of the conditions that are listed below have occurred:
Initial installation of the Cat Detect object detection system
Any of the object detection sensors were replaced.
Any of the object detection sensors have been adjusted or the brackets replaced.This procedure is used in order to validate that the object detection sensors for the system have been installed and adjusted correctly. The procedure will utilize a target. The target will be used in order to explore the limits of object detection sensor coverage.This procedure will define the object detection sensor mapping coverage for targets. The angles at which the object detection sensor brackets are oriented determine the proper coverage area of the object detection sensors and avoid ground reflections. Ground reflections caused by improperly positioned object detection sensor brackets may cause false detections. Record any instances where the alarm system failed to perform properly, including any nuisance alarms. A case where there might be holes in coverage, such that the target might disappear, should be avoided.

Note: Prior to performing this procedure ensure that all components are installed in the appropriate positions as described in the Systems Operation Troubleshooting Testing and Adjusting, M0073198, "Object Detection Sensor - Adjust" section of this manual and adjust the camera angles in order to obtain the best view of coverage areas.
Park the machine in a wide open area that is large and level. This area should have 30 m (98.5 ft) of clearance to rear of the machine.
Set the parking brake.
Turn the disconnect switch to the ON position
Start the machine.
Verify that the system is powered up and the system status indicator and the system fault indicators are illuminated green on the display.
While the machine is parked in the large wide open area check for any surrounding obstacles like bumps, and so on, by observing the display for any flashing areas in the radar detection area. The situations that are listed in Table 8 can cause false targets to be detected and are listed in order of precedence:

Description of Cause Resolution
Test area is not level, area in front or rear of machine has an uphill slope. Find a test area that is more level or reposition the area of the machine being
