Product Description
Sice PROADAS ADAS start calibration and checking equipment
The Start kit would be most suitable for someone that already has a wheel alignment system and they wish to use there existing wheel alignment system separately and they just want to purchase a ADAS system
And later on if they decide to purchase the Sice A92E 3D wheel aligner it can be integrated with the PROADAS to perform pre alignment and also to position the structure with the vehicle

Vehicle manufacturers and the European Union are investing with the goal of making mobility both sustainable and safer. One of the first steps towards safety and autonomous driving is the implementation of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), which today are no longer reserved for high-end cars, but are increasingly present in small city vehicles, every day saloons, hatchbacks, sport utility vehicles and light commercials vehicles too.
The data tells us that by 2020 over 40% of vehicles on the road will be equipped with at least 2 types of assistance systems,
New European approval standards indicate that, starting from 2022, automatic emergency braking (AEB) and lane keeping assistance (LKA) will be mandatory for all registered vehicles.
And this type of technology is only going to keep growing in the coming years
The increase of these systems means that diagnostic, checking and calibration equipment for ADAS will become indispensable in the car repair sector.
Here is a list of some of the systems that can be fitted on today’s vehicles,
- ACC – ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
- ANV – AUTOMOTIVE NIGHT VISION
- AEB – AUTONOMOUS EMERGENCY BRAKING
- BSD – BLIND SPOT DETECTION, BSM – BLIND SPOT MONITORING, BSW – BLIND SPOT WARNING
- CDW – COLLISION DETECTION WARNING
- DDW – DROWSY DRIVER WARNING, DFW – DRIVER FATIGUE WARNING, DDD – DRIVER DROWSINESS DETECTION,
DMS – DRIVER MONITORING SYSTEM
- FCW – FORWARD COLLISION WARNING, FCWS – FORWARD COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM, FCA – FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
- LDW – LANE DEPARTURE WARNING, LDWS – LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM
- LKA – LANE KEEPING ASSIST
- PD – PEDESTRIAN DETECTION, PDS – PEDESTRIAN DETECTION SYSTEM
- TLR – TRAFFIC LIGHT RECOGNITION
- And many more
The Sice PROADAS system
Sice is a Nexion group company with more than 60 years of history, today the Nexion Group is a world leader in the automotive sector. Experience and continuous research into innovation now coexist in a single group, which brings together the sector’s top brands in a solid and increasingly international company.

Below are some examples of why you would need to carry out the checking/calibration on these systems:
- If the vehicle has been in an crash and needs a replacement radar or cameras
- The windscreen has been replaced and it has a camera mounted on it
- If the vehicle had suspension repairs and or wheels alignment
- If a system has lost its calibration
- When replacing faulty units
- When any of the ADAS systems are not working correctly
- If cameras or radar unit had to be removed to gain access to other components
- If distance measurement to the car ahead is incorrect
This is why many workshops are now increasingly seeing the demand for diagnosing, checking and calibrating these types of systems.
Ryan’s Automotive can now offer the equipment, support and training necessary for workshops to be able to offer this service to its customers.
Note most manufactures use this type of equipment to perform whats called static ADAS calibration where this type of special equipment and diagnostic software is used to perform a stationary calibration,
There are some manufactures that calibrate some of there cameras and radars with whats called a dynamic ADAS calibration, to perform this you have to connect diagnostic tool (which the ADAS software and interface with this systems also has coverage and instructions for dynamic calibrations) and force the ADAS ECU into a learning/calibration mode and then you will be prompted to drive the vehicle at a certain speed and for a certain distance on a good road with good clear line markings, and if all conditions are correct and all instructions followed the system will dynamically calibrate,
The big disadvantage with dynamic calibrations is that you have to have good clear weather conditions, good road conditions and daylight,
This is why most manufactures do static calibrations,
PROADAS Start is a universal modular system developed for checking and calibration of driver assistance systems on multi-brand vehicles and light commercial vehicles.
Ease of use, accuracy and maximum ergonomics are some factors which PROADAS differs from other ADAS calibration units on the market.
The versatility of this equipment fulfils the needs of many customers like workshops equipped with/without wheel aligners, mechanic workshops, body shops, windshield repairers.
The main benefits of this system are:
- Compatible with passenger car and light commercial vehicles
- Compatible with vehicle on lifts or other levelled test bay; the software take in consideration the offset where the vehicle is positioned.
- Compatible with Nexion next generation 3D wheel aligner; after the vehicle wheel alignment procedure is possible to perform the ADAS calibration procedure and align the equipment with the 3D wheel cameras and targets. optional kit (8-62100054) allows you to use the cameras of the wheel aligner to align the system with the vehicle (so in the case where a customer already has a Nexion next generation 3D wheel aligner they can buy the PROADAS start version and the optional kit 8-62100054 and integrated them both together)
(or if a customer buys the PROADAS start 1st and later he buys a Nexion next generation 3D wheel aligner they can be integrated together)
- Ergonomic working position, “all within reach”; thanks to its design the user doesn’t need to move around for alignment of the system with the vehicle.
- Electrical movement (up/down) of the system.
- Need only 1 user for its use.
- Conforms to vehicle manufacturer procedures (and in many cases exceeds the accuracy and ease of use compared to some manufactures procedures and there equipment)
- System positioning is controlled by laser pointers using Bluetooth to monitor distance, height and orthogonality.
- System alignment is achieved through laser pointers and a series of targets located on the brackets on the rear axle of the vehicle
(or if you have already or purchase later a Nexion next generation 3D wheel aligner this can be integrated together with PROADAS start and allows you to use the 3D wheel aligner to align the PROADAS system with the car)
- Error-proof. The software contains the preloaded positioning values. It displays the point where it is and guides the system in its operations.
- Complete print report including:
Workshop and Driver info
Vehicle Details
PROADAS positioning data (most positioning data will been shown but only complete data will be shown if used with Nexion 3D wheel aligner)
ADAS calibration result (if used with Tecnomotor diagnostic equipment)
Wheel alignment values, with All In One software enabled (if using with Nexion next generation 3D wheel aligner)
Status vehicle in output
- The graphic user interface help the user step by step on the system alignment and calibration process
- Fast alignment and positioning of the system thanks to Real Time information from the many sensors integrated; PATENT PENDING
- This ADAS system can also be used with other brands of diagnostic equipment and even the OE diagnostic equipment, The operator will use the Sice PROADAS software to correctly position the PROADAS, SCE 300, SCE 700 equipment and view all necessary instructions. Once the system positioning has been completed, the operator will be asked to connect the diagnostic tool they have available to calibrate the ADAS sensor.
And the software will also generate the frame positioning information into a report but the calibration report will have to be printed from the diagnostic tool used, this is one disadvantage to using with other diagnostic tools as you will have 2 separate reports
If used with the Tecnomotor diagnostic system all reports will be generated and printed in one report
Technically, the measurements and calibrations of ADAS systems are influenced by the vehicle’s alignment in relation to the front and rear toe and thrust angle.
So it is very important to be sure the 4 wheel alignment is correct before performing any ADAS calibration work,
So if choose to purchase the PROADAS start package you can do your alignment with your existing aligner and then the ADAS calibration with the PROADAS start
And at any stage you can purchase the Sice A92E 3D wheel aligner and integrate it with your existing PROADAS system
The SICE PROADAS system can be purchased in 4 different options to suit user requirements
