INTRODUCTION
Thankyou for purchasing the PDC340
Reverse Parking Sensor. This manual
details the installation and operation of
your product. Please read it carefully and
keep to hand for future reference. Ensure
that the product is working correctly before
attempting permanent installation.
The PDC340 is an automatic reversing alert
system. It gives a safety warning which tells
the driver the distance between the rear of
the vehicle and any object in its path.
The sensors transmit an ultrasonic signal
when the car is reversing. When the signal
senses an object, it will be reected and
received by the PDC340 control unit. These
reected signals are analysed by the control
unit microprocessor to detect whether the
obstacle is in your path and at what distance.
The receiver unit illustrates the distances
involved with a series of beeps and
illuminated LED’s letting the driver know how
far away the closest object is located.
Below are graphical representations of the
PDC340 detecting patterns:
