An alarm can be set in order to inform an operator that the machine is too close to an area that is to be avoided. The area around or distance from the area that is to be avoided is referred to as an "Avoidance Zone". An alarm will sound when the "Avoidance Zone" is entered. The "Avoidance Zone" distance can vary due to different machine types and applications. The "Avoidance Zone" can be set by use of the "Avoidance Zone" screen options. The "Avoidance Zone" screen options allows you to configure the distance from an avoidance zone when you need to be warned.DXF files or SVL files can be used for avoidance zones guidance. DXF files must be named using the convention *.avoid.dxf. SVL files that are generated by the AccuGrade Office software must use the convention *.avoid.svl.Warnings to the site avoidance zones are available. In order to use these warnings, you need to have one or more suitable DXF files or SVL files in the root folder of the data card. The files load in "Plan View". The files are displayed in the "Plan View" when the display is turned on. Warnings are given to the site avoidance zones until the display is turned off.Avoidance zone files must contain one or more polygons in order to define the area that you want to avoid.When the DXF file or an SVL file is created for an avoidance zone, the file does not need to have the polygon boundary color or the fill color set defined. This is automatically done by the AccuGrade system. When the boundary color is defined in the DXF file, the AccuGrade system displays the color.Warnings start to be given when the machine is detected to be within three times the set warning distance.The following is included in a warning at this level.
The avoidance zones within the detection zone turn magenta in color.
The "Avoid. Dist." text item gives the distance and direction to the closest avoidance zone.When the machine is detected to be within the set warning distance, the following extra warning measures are implemented.
A sequence of three beeps sound.
In the plan view, a warning symbol is displayed on the machine icon.
The avoid indicator appears in the bottom right corner of the main views.Finally, when a machine enters an avoidance zone the following warning measures occur.
A flashing message "Avoid. Zone Entered" appears. The message has a yellow background.
Constant beeping sounds (if enabled) until you exit the avoidance zone.
The "Avoid. Dist." text item shows a negative value.If the avoidance zone guidance is not available, the "No Avoid" indicator appears in the bottom right hand corner of the main views.Note: Use AccuGrade Office in order to review and test that the avoidance zones are correctly defined before exporting them to a data card.Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, SEBU8292 for more details on avoidance zones.Setting the Warning Distance
You need to be in "Service Mode" in order to access the avoidance zone setting in the "Setup Menu" dialog.Perform
