OverWatch - User - Obstructed Operator Sensor

The OverWatch™ can detect if the operator sensor is obstructed.

An obstruction may occur if the sensor is physically covered with an object or a material such as dust, water or paint, etc. The OverWatch™ will announce “Sensor Obstruction”. The operator must then clean the sensor in order to operate the machine. Alternatively, if the sensor is damaged, the system override may be used to regain control and move the machine.
