How it works
The system works by radiating ultrasonic beams covering the area behind the vehicle. The beams are reflected by obstructions behind the vehicle, and re-enter the sensors. The reflected beam information is processed to calculate the distance of the obstruction.
As with the other systems the Dolphin unit is activated when reverse gear is engaged. As the vehicle is reversed. When the vehicle is less than 1.5 metres from the obstruction the audible alert will emit intermittent bleeps. As the vehicle gets closer to the obstruction the frequency of the bleeps increases. At 30 centimetres from the obstruction the bleeps become a continuous solid tone.
Stage | Distance | Awareness | Alarm |
1 | 200 - 160cm | Safe Mode | No |
2 | 150 - 100cm | Safe Mode | Bi----Bi----Bi |
3 | 90 - 50cm | Alarm Mode | Bi--Bi--Bi |
4 | 40 - 30cm | Danger Mode | Bi-Bi-B |
5 | 30 - 0cm | Stop | Bi---------- |
"Swap Socket" Feature All of our kits now come with the new watertight swap socket feature based 12 inches from the sensor heads, it makes installation quicker and easier. Also should you ever have a problems with faulty sensors or accident damage in the future it facilitates easy replacement without having to remove the bumper again and rewire from scratch. |
Integrated Moulded Wedges These sensors have the wedges built in, you need to position the sensors slightly angled up - or downwards, to ensure the sensor's signal is still sent out parallel with the road's surface when placed in your vehicles bumper. |

Maintenance
No routine maintenance or adjustment is required. Dirt, frost or snow accumulated on the sensors may cause the system to activate incorrectly. Clean carefully with a soft cloth. Do not use chemicals or spirits. Applying hot water in frozen conditions may damage the sensors. The sensors can be washed carefully with warm soapy water
