Detection range

The detection range of MagicWatch is divided into three zones (see fig. 5,
page 5):
Zone 1
This zone is the first limit range. Small or objects with poor reflective char-
acteristics are sometimes not detected in this zone.
Zone 2
Nearly all objects are displayed in this zone.
Zone 3
Nearly all objects are displayed in this zone, but some objects may come
into the blind spot of the sensors.
Situations may arise where MagicWatch does not detect objects
or fails to signal their distance correctly, due to their physical char-
acteristics.
Note the four following examples.
Example 1 (see fig. 6, page 5)
Objects which do not enter the detection area of the sensors cannot be
recorded.
Example 2 (see fig. 7, page 5)
The distance to objects with large gaps in them may not be correctly sig-
nalled. In the example, A is not signalled, but only B or C instead.
Example 3 (see fig. 8, page 5)
For diagonal obstacles, the shortest distance A is signalled.
Example 4 (see fig. 9, page 6)
In this case, MagicWatch displays the distance A. As the vehicle approaches
the audible indicator goes over to the stop zone, and as it approaches further,
the distance A goes into the blind spot, so that MAGIC WATCH signals the
distance from point B.
