Do you have a question about the Steel mate PTS800V3 and is the answer not in the manual?

Overview

This document describes the Steelmate PTS800V3 Parking Assist System, a device designed to aid drivers in parking and maneuvering their vehicles. It is notable for being the first Parking Assist System (PTS) to incorporate AWS (Active Warning System) technology.

The primary function of the PTS800V3 is to provide an ultrasonic distance monitoring system that electronically detects objects in front of and/or behind a vehicle while parking. It alerts the driver with visual and audible warnings, assisting in both parking and maneuvering situations. The system is designed to enhance safety and convenience during parking.

Technical Specifications:

  • Voltage: 12V ± 3V
  • Static current: < 40mA
  • Working current: < 300mA
  • Detecting range:
    • Driving forward: 0.10–0.99m
    • Reversing backward: 0.10–2.59m
  • Display range:
    • Driving forward: 0.3–0.9m
    • Reversing backward: 0.3–2.5m
  • Temperature: -40°C ~ +85°C
  • Beep volume: 70–90dB

Key Features:

  • AWS Technology: The system actively warns approaching vehicles towards a parked car by flashing turn signals or siren chirping. When the engine is stopped and the system is activated, it will warn with flashing turn signals if an approaching vehicle is detected within 1.5m. If the vehicle approaches within 1m, the horn will chirp once, followed by rapid turn signal flashes. Continuous approach triggers repeated chirps and flashes.
  • 0.08s Response Time: Ensures quick and accurate detection of obstacles.
  • Real-time and All-round Protection: Equipped with 8 sensors (4 front, 4 rear) for comprehensive coverage.
  • Waterproof Connectors: Sensors are designed with fully insulated and waterproof connectors for durability.
  • Blue LCD Display: A 3.1-inch wide blue screen offers a super wide vision, making it easy to see comfortably.
  • Dynamic Matrix Indication: Provides visual representation of object positions.
  • Display Adjustment: The display can be installed at 5 different locations for optimal visibility.
  • Built-in Speaker & Volume Adjustable: Allows drivers to customize the warning sound volume.
  • Audible/Voice Warning Mode Selectable: Users can choose between audible beeps or voice warnings.
  • Up to 6 Warning Modes: Offers various warning modes to suit different situations.
  • Self-testing Function: Automatically checks all sensors for proper functioning.
  • All-weather Design: Operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C.
  • Anti-false Alarm Technology: Minimizes incorrect detections.

Usage Features:

  • Digital Distance Indication: Displays the shortest distance to an object (0.3m to 2.5m) and refreshes every 0.1m.
  • Level Indication: Changes according to the shortest distance to an object.
  • Matrix Indication: Shows the accurate position and distance of objects.
  • Red Warning Light: Flashes quickly with "STOP" displayed when an object is less than 0.3m away, prompting the driver to stop.
  • Pedestal and Universal Joint Base: The display unit can be firmly attached to the dashboard or windshield, and its flexible structure allows for angle adjustment for easy reading.
  • Voice Warning ON/OFF: Press and hold the "VOLUME" button for 2 seconds to toggle voice warnings on (11, 12, 13) or off (01, 02, 03).
  • Volume Adjustment: Press the "VOLUME" button to cycle through low (11/01), medium (12/02), and high (13/03) volume levels. The volume automatically switches to high when an object is less than 0.3m away.
  • Driving Forward Mode: When the key is in the ON position and the footbrake is pressed, the 4 front sensors activate. The system displays object information (level, front matrix, digital distance) and prolongs working time by 5 seconds after the footbrake is released.
  • Reversing Backward Mode: When the key is in the ON position and reverse gear is selected, the system self-tests 2 front side sensors (E, H) and 4 rear sensors (A, B, C, D). It then scans and detects objects, displaying relevant information.
  • All-round Protection and Corner Warning: When reversing, both front and rear sensors activate. The shortest distance is displayed, and the matrix indicator shows object locations, including those at the front corners.

Maintenance Features:

  • Self-testing Function: The system automatically tests sensors when ACC is ON (for front sensors) or reverse gear is selected (for rear and two front sensors). A single beep indicates all sensors are functioning, while three beeps indicate a damaged sensor, showing its location and number on the display.
  • Troubleshooting Guide: Provides solutions for common issues such as the display not powering on, false readings, defective sensors, incorrect object position indication, and low warning sound volume.
  • Warranty: The unit is warranted for a limited period from the date of purchase, covering repairs or replacements for defects under normal use. Warranty claims require showing the warranty card with matching model and serial numbers. The warranty is void if the card is incomplete, the serial number is defaced, the unit is modified or misused, or damaged by accident, neglect, improper installation, or service. It does not cover damage caused by installation or removal.

Important Notes:

  • False detection may occur on smooth sloping surfaces, with sound-absorbing items (e.g., cotton), or with similar special objects/environments.
  • After installation, the system should be fully tested.
  • Heavy rain, dirt, or a damaged sensor can cause incorrect detection.
  • The self-testing function should be completed and indicate no malfunction before reversing.
  • This product is a driver assistance device; no warranty is given regarding its operating efficiency or prevention of accidents.
