Deck-Talk Verbal Feedback System
"Deck-Talk" is a unique add-on feature that provides verbal feedback for general status, safety, and fault diagnosis for the upper decks of Lifting Deck trailers.
By giving the operator clear and concise audio messages, Deck-Talk ensures enhanced safety in line with ISO hazard guidance, offering vital feedback during deck operation, fault conditions, and personnel access situations.
Below is a breakdown of the specific voice prompts and when each is triggered:
| Priority | Trigger Condition | Voice Feedback |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Deck has raised to top sensor + at least one paddle lock has not deployed correctly | Danger, not all deck locks have deployed. It is not safe to enter under the deck. (Repeated twice) |
| 2 | Attempt to raise deck from fully lowered position + at least one deck lock does not retract | Attention, Deck raise failed. Not all deck locks have retracted. (Once only) |
| 3 | Attempt to lower deck from raised position + at least one deck lock does not retract | Warning, Deck lower failed. Not all deck locks have retracted. (Once only) |
| 4 | Deck has reached top sensor and all paddle locks are deployed | Attention, now safe to enter under the deck. (Once only) |
| 5 | Deck is actively raising | BEEP BEEP Caution, deck raising. (Repeating) |
| 6 | Deck is actively lowering | BEEP BEEP Danger, deck lowering. (Repeating) |
| 7 | PIR sensor at rear triggered AND tail-lift is lowered | BEEP BEEP Warning, tail lift lowered. (Repeated twice) |
