With so many varieties of reversing systems, Vision UK provides comprehensive advice and assistance to potential customers. Systems for FORS, CLOCS and Crossrail Vision UK offers an array of products that have achieved accreditation from the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) and Construction Logistics and Community Safety (CLOCS). The Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) is a voluntary accreditation scheme that promotes best practice for commercial vehicle operators. With over 4,900 members, FORS is gaining recognition as the transport industry’s go- to accreditation scheme. FORS encompasses all aspects of safety, efficiency, and environmental protection by encouraging and training fleet operators to measure, monitor and improve performance. FORS provides accreditation pathways for operators of any type, and for those organisations that award contracts and specify transport requirements. FORS Bronze, Silver and Gold membership provides progressive accreditation enabling operators to achieve exemplary levels of best practice. The CLOCS scheme provides the Construction Logistics Industry with the best practice for managing work related road risk (WRRR) and ensuring a road safety culture is embedded across the industry. This scheme helps to protect pedestrians, cyclists, motorcycles and other vulnerable road users who share the roads with construction vehicles. The FORS silver requirements are now aligned to the requirements of the Construction Logistics and Community Safety (CLOCS) Standard and TfL’s Work Related Road Risk (WRRR) requirements. To help Fleet Operators meet the safety requirements of the FORS and CLOCS Scheme, Vision UK offers three systems packages designed to meet the specific requirements of the different levels of the scheme. CLOCS GOLD HD System This new generation HD Quality DVR System is specifically designed for operators delivering to construction sites and requiring FORS and CLOCS scheme compliance. This system features a DVR-720 AHD DVR that records up to 720P video quality and is supplied with a 128 GByte SSD drive for maximum reliability in high shock and vibration environments. With a 128Gbyte SSD, the DVR will typically record 40 hours of video before overwriting the oldest footage. Vision’s unique Close Proximity warning system is integrated into the system to provide the driver with a visual and audible warning of objects in their nearside blind spot. A useful feature for some customers is that the DVR-720 can be used to disable the external talking Vehicle Turning Left Alarm, and also Monitor, above a pre-determined speed using GPS speed. FORS Silver System This system package is specifically designed to meet the Driver vision plus cyclist and pedestrian warning requirements of the FORS Silver and Gold Level Schemes, the CLOCS Scheme and CROSSRAIL Site Access Requirements. The system has been updated for 2019 and is supplied with a latest generation 7 ″ Monitor that support both Hi-resolution 720P and 600TVL Camera formats, 720P AHD Reverse Camera, external talking Vehicle Turning Left Alarm and features a unique integrated Side Camera and Step Area Close Proximity Warning System. When driving normally, the system can be configured so that the monitor is always showing either the reverse or nearside camera but automatically switches to show reverse or the nearside camera (with integrated Nearside Close Proximity Detection warning) when performing the specific manoeuvre. Alternatively, the monitor can be normally turned off and only activated when the specific manoeuvre is being made. Popular accessories supplied with this package include the ALA-51 Multi-Frequency Reverse Alarm and a Speed Control Module (SCM-01) that is used to disable the external talking Vehicle Turning Left Alarm, and also the Monitor if desired, above a pre-set speed. FORS Bronze System This system is designed to meet the requirements of the FORS Bronze standard accreditation. The system consists of a 7 ″ Monitor (5.6 ″ and 9 ″ are options) reverse camera, side camera and an external talking Vehicle Turning Left Alarm and Multi-Frequency Reversing Alarm. www.vision-uk.co.uk New DVR housing and cassette, with improved access to SIM card and SD card The architecture of new DVR
