MagicWatch MWE150
The sensors are installed on the bumper. It is possible to paint the sensors,
but not with a multicoat paint, as it impairs the functionality of the sensors.
Since the sensors are equipped with their own amplifiers, you can extend the
connection between the sensors and the controller to up to 10 m.
Caution!
Only use WAECO cables (MWCS-1).
Otherwise, proper operation cannot be guaranteed.
Defective sensors can be replaced without removing the bumper. There is a
plug connector just behind the sensor for this.

Detection range

The detection range of MagicWatch is divided into three zones (5, page 5):
Zone 1
This zone is the first limit range. Small or poorly reflective objects are so-
metimes 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.
Note
Situations may arise where MagicWatch does not detect objects or
fails to signal their distance correctly, due to their physical charac-
teristics.
Note the four following examples.
Example 1 (6, page 5)
Objects which do not enter the detection area of the sensors cannot be re-
corded.
Example 2 (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.
