Configuration Window – ACB
The Configuration Window is used to display ACB sensor configuration information including the mounting
offset, stationary object warning, alignment value and following distance setting configuration number.
ACB Sensor Configuration Mounting Offset
The ACB Sensor mounting offset provides the horizontal offset relative to the vehicle’s longitudinal axis. A
positive value indicates an offset to the left of the vehicle’s longitudinal axis (driver’s side) and a negative
value indicates an offset to the right of the vehicle’s longitudinal axis (passenger side). The offset range is
± 500 mm (19.69 inches). The physical mounting location of the sensor cannot exceed ± 500 mm. Changes
to the sensor location from the OEM-installed position requires Bendix Engineering approval.
Stationary Object Warning
The Stationary Object Warning field provides the technician with an audible alert for stationary objects
within the vehicle path. Stationary object warnings will be enabled (ON) or disabled (OFF).
Alignment Value
The ACB sensor alignment value provides the angle calculated by the system that the sensor is found to be
pointed (laterally) away from the vehicle’s longitudinal axis.
The smaller the alignment angle, the better forward vehicle tracking performance. A positive value indicates
that the sensor is currently aimed to the right side of the vehicle’s longitudinal axis (passenger side). A
negative value indicates the sensor is currently aimed to the left side of the vehicle’s longitudinal axis
(driver’s side). The acceptable alignment range is ± 1.4 degrees, but if the alignment value is greater than
±0.8 degrees, it is recommended to adjust the sensors aim. See the ACB Service Data Sheet for full details
of the sensor adjustment procedures.
