Page 3: Introduction
The Brigade BS-9100 / BS-9100T radar sensor features an internal CAN interface for network connectivity, allowing the user to link up to 8 sensors and a network host on a single CAN bus, enabling monitoring of multiple detection areas around the vehicle. -
Page 4: Detection Pattern
• For distances below 1.5m (detection with relative speed only) or below 0.3m (no detection) the space covered in general by radar systems is very small. In this scenario, Backsense® may not be the most suitable solution; therefore, Brigade recommends adding an additional or alternative detection system depending on the vehicle’s application. - Page 5 1.2.1.2 Vertical Detection Area 1.2.2 Factors Influencing the Detection of Objects ® Brigade Backsense shares in principle the advantages and limitations of all radar-based systems when compared to other sensing technologies. In general, it can reliably detect most objects in most environmental conditions such as dirt, dust, rain, snow, sun, fog, darkness, acoustic noise, mechanical vibration, electromagnetic noise, or similar.

Page 7: Object Detection
Object Detection 3.1 Separate Object Detection ® Each Backsense BS-9100 / BS-9100T sensor is capable of detecting and reporting data for up to 16 objects, within the limitations detailed in section 1.2 if there are more than 16 objects within the detection area of a particular sensor, only the closest 16 detections will be reported based on object radius from sensor. -
Page 8: Detected Object Position Relative To Sensor
3.3 Detected Object Position Relative to Sensor The image below illustrates the relative position of detected objects with respect to the sensor’s front face. -
Page 9: Hardware Installation
Hardware Installation 4.1 Recommended Network Layouts and Limitations ® Any installation of a Backsense BS-9100 / BS-9100T System must adhere to a strict network topology to ensure reliable communications between all sensors and the host. The network topology must be of a bus configuration featuring 120Ω termination at both ends. Sensors must be connected to the bus via Network Y-Cables only. -
Page 10: Bad Network Arrangement
Example 3: Good network topology using two terminated sensors with host connection in middle of bus 4.3 Bad Network Arrangement The features of a bad network topology, to be avoided, include but are not limited to: • Long bus length (>30m). •... -
Page 11: Sensor Mounting And Location
The sensor should be mounted in an upright position with the cable exit on the sensor pointing downwards, such that the Brigade logo on the front of the sensor is readable when standing in the required detection area. The front of the sensor should have line of sight to all areas where objects should be detected. -
Page 12: Cable
Refer to the vehicle manufacturer or bodybuilder guidelines for installation procedures and connectivity in all applications. The sensor pinout is shown in the table below, and the connector details are provided in Section 9: Deutsch Signal Brigade Name Wire Colour Ground Brown... -
Page 13: Power Input
4.9 Power Input Power must be applied to the BS-9100 / BS-9100T sensor network via a dedicated Brigade power cable. Only one power input to the system is permitted and must be suitably positioned within the network to ensure that loading from all sensors is balanced and excessive voltage drops are avoided. -
Page 14: Can Bus
5.3 CANbus Base ID All BS-9100 / BS-9100T sensors are shipped from Brigade with a pre-set Base ID of 0x390. Messages with this ID value do not contain any detection data but do provide a Keep Alive message to the host. -
Page 15: Base Id Configuration
System installers may configure sensor base ID values using their own host system, or through use of the Brigade Test tool detailed in Section 7. Each BS-9100 / BS-9100T sensor within a network must be configured with an individual Base ID. The method for Base ID configuration entails sending a single configuration message to each individual sensor in the CAN network using a specific “Configuration ID”... -

Page 18: Sensor Start-Up Messages
Note: sensor error flag is transmitted on the base ID’s only for example 0x310, 0x320 etc. rather than of 0x311, 0x321. 5.8 Sensor Start-up Messages Each sensor will transmit various messages to the host upon power up. These messages may be used by the host to confirm that each sensor in the network has correctly started and is operational. -
Page 19: System Host
System Host 6.1 Host Responsibilities The BS-9100 / BS-9100T system requires connection to a customer-supplied host to receive and utilise object detection messages from the sensor via CAN bus. The host system is responsible for interpreting the detection data detailed in section 4 and applying any logic, conditioning, filtering, activation, or blind zone settings (e.g., ignoring certain detection under pre-determined conditions) that may be required in the application of the system. -

Brigade Backsense CAN Radar Test Tool 7.1 PC Interface for BS-9100 / BS-9100T As detailed in section 5, the Brigade BS-9100 / BS-9100T radar sensors use CAN for all communications to the host system, including configuration and test activities. To configure and test the system using Brigade’s software applications such as the Backsense Test Tool, a Softing CANpro USB Interface and associated drivers are required. -

Page 35: Application Errors
Action: New error flag when incorrect sensor is connected. Check the sensor model and try again. Application must be relaunched. ® The Brigade Backsense System cannot self-diagnose potential sensor detection issues caused by the build-up of ice, dirt, mud, heavy rain, or immersion in water, all of which may impede system performance. -
