The viewing problem
Safety is becoming an ever increasing aspect in the industry. All new earth moving machinery has to as of the 1st of December 2008 comply with the ISO 5006 standards. The driver of a large earth moving machinery vehicle has very little visibility of the area around his vehicle. The blind spot areas to the front and rear of the vehicle are the most dangerous areas. The ISO 5006 standards state that the area of up to one metre around the entire vehicle as well as the area of one and a half metres above the vehicle must be visible to the driver.

FAQ
It is possible to connect four cameras to one single monitor and to activate them automatically
We do not advise this as the quality of the camera images decreases when two images are displayed simultaneously.
A wireless system is possible; however we do advise you to make use of a cable.
We have specially developed a cable (the armoured cable) for earth moving vehicles. All our cables are resistant to oil and petrol and equipped with waterproof connectors. The armoured cable has an extra protective layer which ensures that the cable is resistant to continuous movements and vibrations.
