ADAS TRUCK Kit
Some truck and commercial vehicle manu-
facturers require specific equipment for the
proper calibration of driver assistance systems,
which include cameras, radars and sensors that
govern the Adaptive Cruise Control. TEXA offers
an adjustment system that includes a measuring
bar, panels divided by make – dedicated to
cameras and laser devices – that are essential for
the correct alignment and calibration of WABCO,
TRW and TRW/Knorr radars.
The ADAS TRUCK Kit also includes a set of clamps
with laser pointer, a laser to adjust the Adaptive
Cruise Control and the mirror adapter for WABCO
radars. Furthermore, the IDC5 software guides
the operator step by step in the case of vehicles
that carry out the self-calibration through on-
road adaptation procedures.

A perfect match with the IDC5 software
TEXA’s solutions are to be used in combination
with the IDC5 diagnostic software, which allows
quick calibrations.
In fact, the application provides specific
diagnostic help sheets for each make/model,
with the instructions for the correct positioning
of the unit (such as panel height from the ground,
distance from the vehicle, alignment, etc.), guiding
you step by step throughout the procedures.
At the end of the calibration, you can also print
a report to hand over to the customer, with the
evidence of the operations carried out.

TEXA devices are an ideal solution for


operators, allowing them to:

Expand the business;

Operate easily, safely and professionally;

Recalibrate all ADAS installed in vehicles;

Build up the most suitable combination based on your own professional needs;

Invest in an innovative system with a secure economic return;

Count on highly qualified training, with the dedicated TEXAEDU courses.
