The file will be uploaded to the City Smart Pro AI unit and then it will restart. The Wi-Fi connection may drop during this process so please reconnect if required before continuing setup.
Configuring the City Smart Pro AI unit for MOIS and/or BSIS mode
Depending on whether the vehicle requires the MOIS (Front) and/or BSIS (Blind Spot) detection zones you will need to enable/disable these as applicable. To access this page on the AWAI app go to 'Configuration' >> 'Video Stream' >> 'Camera Settings' as shown below.
Toggle the VIN1 and VIN2 enabled/disabled buttons to match the installation requirement.
Vin 1 = BSIS (Blind Spot Information Systems) Blind Spot Camera Zone
Vin 2 = MOIS (Moving Off Information Systems) Front Camera Zone
Example of setting the AWAI app to be a BSIS only system:
BSIS (Blind Spot Information Systems) Camera Setup
If your system has the BSIS zone you will need to configure the BSIS detection zone on the AWAI app, Access this menu by selecting 'Configuration' << 'Blind zone calibration' >> 'Calibration' as shown below. Check VIN1 is selected as the camera view channel and then click 'Calibration':
Ensure the 'Installation Method' is set to “Left Top” and that the 'Calibration Mode' is set to '2 Zone' at shown below.
Using the up/down/left/right arrows adjust the zones as required. Scrolling down the page will allow you to see the blue (vehicle baseline/edge), yellow (medium risk zone) and red (high risk zone) lines. You need to ensure the yellow zone covers the full BSIS 9m x 2.2m detection zone, the red zone can be narrowed for closer proximity to be approx. 0.7m - 1m from the vehicle.
The below image shows the TFL (Transport for London) BSIS requirement zone that the above detection area must cover. Please ensure the zone covers to the front left corner of the vehicle and does not stop at the wing mirror.
BSIS Zone Alarm Configuration
The next step is to configure the alarms for the BSIS detection, to access the Blind area alarm menu go to 'Configuration' >> 'Blind Area Alarm'.
Ensure 'VIN1' is selected at the top for the BSIS zone and then select 'Mix model 2' for the recognition mode which will configure the audible alert to sound once in the yellow detection zone and repeatedly in the red detection zone.
The Sensor out setting needs to be set to 'SENSOR OUT1' to enable the LTA alarm for the BSIS zone when the left indicator is on, and set the vehicle type to be 'Logis-Truck' as shown below.
The trigger speed is hard encoded to 20mph to prevent the alert going off over 20mph so no changes are required here. When you have finished scroll to the bottom and click 'Setting' to save the changes.
MOIS (Moving Off Information Systems) Front Detection Camera Configuration
If your system has the MOIS zone you will need to configure the MOIS detection zone on the AWAI app, Access this menu by selecting 'Configuration' << 'Blind zone calibration' >> 'Calibration' as shown below. Check VIN2 is selected as the camera view channel and then click 'Calibration':
Ensure the 'Installation Method' is set to “Front” and that the 'Calibration Mode' is set to '2 Zone' at shown below.
Using the up/down/left/right arrows adjust the zones as required. Scrolling down the page will allow you to see the blue (vehicle baseline/edge), yellow (medium risk zone) and red (high risk zone) lines. You need to ensure the yellow zone covers the full MOIS 2m x (vehicle width + 0.5m overhang left + right) detection zone, the red zone can be narrowed for closer proximity to be approx. 0.8m - 1m from the vehicle.
The below image shows the TFL (Transport for London) MOIS requirement zone that the above detection area must cover. Please ensure the zone covers 0.5m over hang to the left and right of the vehicle and does not stop at the vehicle edges.
MOIS Zone Alarm Configuration
The next step is to configure the alarms for the MOIS detection, to access the Blind area alarm menu go to 'Configuration' >> 'Blind Area Alarm'.
Ensure 'VIN2' is selected at the top for the MOIS zone and then select 'Mix model 2' for the recognition mode which will configure the audible alert to sound once in the yellow detection zone and repeatedly in the red detection zone.
The Sensor out setting needs to be set to 'Empty ' so that it does not sound the LTA alarm when the left indicator is on, and set the vehicle type to be 'Logis-Truck' as shown below.
The trigger speed is hard encoded to 20mph to prevent the alert going off over 10mph so no changes are required here. When you have finished scroll to the bottom and click 'Setting' to save the changes.
Trigger Inputs Setup
The next step is to configure the trigger inputs. Go to Configuration >> Trigger input to enable/disable the required triggers.
Disable 'Reverse' and 'Right Turn' and Enable the remaining 4 triggers, 'Left Turn', 'Mute', 'Special Brake' and 'Internal Speaker' as shown below
Set the Trigger Mode for the enabled option to be 'High Level'.
Once configured, the trigger input settings page should look like this:
Trigger Output Setup
In order to ensure the monitor turns on (if off) and also switches to the RCA channel the 12v out trigger wire is connected as part of the hardware installation but it needs to be enabled as a trigger output in the AWAI mobile app as well. (If installing the City Smart Pro system with a Calamp this is also the same trigger connected to the grey fly lead input 4 of the Calamp)
Go to 'Configuration' << 'Accessories Settings' as shown below and ensure the 'Trigger output' toggle is enabled. To configure the output settings click on 'ADVANCED' as shown below:
Select 'Both Indicator & Redzone' as the trigger output and click 'Confirm' to save the settings:
Driver Monitor Settings for BSD (Blind Spot Detection)
The monitor can be configured to give the driver a visual aid for the BSD (blind spot detection) zones. These can be accessed from the Configuration >> Others page as shown below.
There are two settings available:
- 'BSD calibration function switch' when enabled this will show the detection areas in the video output. The preference for this feature is to be disabled by most drivers.
- 'BSD detection function switch' when enabled this will show a box around a detected object. The preference for this feature is to be enabled by most drivers
This completes the setup of the City Smart Pro, please ensure to capture all job photos and a video of the detection zones as prompted by Nexus or your engineer job card.
