• Introducing

The AGV-1000 ultrasonic collision avoidance system is designed to provide

a flexible solution for automated vehicles and other collision avoidance
applications. The system can be configured with up to six transducers
(standard), with the option of up to eight transducers for a wide coverage area.
The AGV-1000 is designed with the following features:

• Short and long range modes, each with eight programmable “SLOW” and

“STOP” functions.

• The ability to temporarily disable specific transducers to prevent

unwanted object detection.

• Adjustable random pulsing to reduce transducer cross-talk and multiple

echo interference.

• Transducer error detection circuitry, with an “ERROR” output and

programmable “SLOW” or “STOP” on error functions.

• Programmable adjustments for transmit signal strength and return signal

amplification.

• Redundant “STOP” outputs for added safety.

• RS-232 interface.

• 10 to 30 VDC operating voltage.
