Intended Use
GPS/GNSS Availability
AF
Cat ® Detect Proximity Awareness uses a
combination of hardware and software, both onboard
(machine) and off board (infrastructure and office) to
provide information to the machine operator. The
machine sends GPS position to other machines over
DSRC using V2x modules and to the office (server)
over a wireless radio network. The V2x modules and
the office then process all the messages from the
individual machines within coverage. The V2x
modules then share near real-time positions with the
display and the office broadcast the messages out
over the wireless radio network for machines that
have shutdown or that are equipped with WiFi only
Proximity Awareness. The display processes the
messages and calculates machines of interest based
on the position of your machines and the machines
around you.
Due to the nature of wireless communications
and government controlled navigation systems,
satellite timing signals may be lost, inaccurate, or
of poor signal strength. The availability of satellite-based positioning signals is beyond the control of both, the user and Caterpillar. Diagnostics
to detect low accuracy or the loss of signal provide warnings to the operator. Failure to follow
the instructions or heed the warnings could result in injury or death.
NOTICE
Use of this system does not replace basic safety precautions and procedures for operating a machine.
Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual of
the machine for additional information.
The Proximity Awareness onboard system uses
locations from a Global Positioning System (GPS), to
enhance operator awareness of other equipment with
a proximity awareness system installed and
configured boundaries surrounding the machine.
Detect helps increase operator awareness of
machine surroundings. Detect includes a range of
capabilities designed to assist the operator, including
blind spot and proximity detection of fixed and mobile
equipment.
Detect Proximity Awareness consists of several key
elements that make up the complete system. At the
heart of the Proximity Awareness system are the
GNSS satellite constellations. Both GPS (United
States) and GLONASS (Russia) are owned and
operated by the defense departments of the
countries that placed the satellites in orbit. While
these government agencies recognize the great
dependence the private sector has for these
systems, an important message is, that for national
security reasons, and at any time, the government
can shut off, move/reallocate to a different slot, or
alter the timing signals provided by these satellites.
These government activities are out of the user and
Caterpillar control and would have an adverse effect
on the system to report accurate locations of the
equipment. The onboard system incorporates
diagnostics to detect low accuracy and/or no
corrections to warn the operator of this condition.
Elements of the Proximity Awareness System
The system is highly configurable during setup and
the on-board alarming behavior may differ from what
is specified in this manual. Refer with your site
supervisor for site-specific alarming behaviors.
The following list defines elements of the Proximity
Awareness system:
Detect Basics
• Reference station (Ground element)
Definitions
• Onboard Site Awareness system (User element)
GPS: – Global Navigation System (United States
Department of Defense (DoD) NAVSTAR)
• GPS/GNSS (Space element)

The Detect onboard system consists of the following
components:
Required:
• Touchscreen monitor display
• V2x module
• GPS antenna
Another key element embedded within the user
element is the geographic local coordinate system
calibration file. This file is a conversion file on the
GNSS satellite receiver that is created by the mine
site. The file calibrates the latitude, longitude, and
elevation calculated by the satellite receiver into the
mine site local coordinate system (northing, easting,
and elevation). The accuracy of the indicated position
in the plan view window of the Proximity Awareness
system depends on the accuracy of the conversion
file and measure-up of the machine during
installation. Ensure that the GNSS reference point
that is on the machine is placed over known site
calibration point. Verify that the Proximity Awareness
indicated that position matches the known mine site
calibration point prior to placing the machine in
service.
• Wireless radio (customer supplied)
Optional:
• Interface module
• Ethernet switch
• Medium precision satellite receiver

Proximity alarming is based on the following:
• Machine speed
• Machine position
• Machine heading
• Machine dimensions and avoidance areas defined
in office software
The avoidance area (1) is a fixed area around the
machine, is configured in the office at the machine
class level, and does not change based on the
heading or the speed of the machine. The area does
scale as the GPS accuracy decreases. For example,
if the GPS accuracy is 1 m (3.28 ft) and the zone is
configured as 2 m (6.56 ft), then the total avoidance
zone around the machine would be 3 m (9.84 ft).
26
M0065690-01
Operation Section
Visual Proximity Alarming
Note: The dimensions of the machines and the
avoidance areas of the machine are defined in the
office software.
The projected path (4) is added onto the avoidance
area (1) at the (front or rear) of the machine to
determine potential collisions. The total projected
path is a mathematical calculation tied to the speed
and direction of the machine and is defined in the
office software. The projected path will increase as
the speed of the machine increases and decrease in
the direction of travel as the speed of the machine
decreases.
Alarms are based on priority. For example, if a
machine is equipped with Object Detection and an
object is detected by the Object Detection sensors,
that alarm would have higher priority then a GPSbased proximity alarm.
