User’s Manual 1 2.1
This manual contains instructions to install and program the operations of a Flagger-Mac automated
flagger assistance device (AFAD) using the Ver-Mac V-Touch AFAD. Following that step, you will only

remote.
This manual presents procedures done using only the V-Touch AFAD touchscreen of the
FlaggerMac. Deployment and removal procedures are presented in the Operation, Safety and
Maintenance Manuals.

1.2 What Is a V-Touch AFAD Touchscreen Controller
The V-Touch AFAD touchscreen controller is a compact microcomputer using an LCD touchscreen
that displays in English, French or Spanish (user's choice). The touchscreen controller provides access
to all operations and functions of the V-Touch AFAD unit, according to the limitations of their user
profile.
1.3 Using the V-Touch AFAD Touchscreen Controller
Before using the V-Touch AFAD, the Ver-Mac units must be installed on the job site. Refer to the
Operation, Safety and Maintenance Manual of your units by scanning the corresponding QR code
sticker to display it directly on your electronic device.
Tap the icons on the screen with your fingertip or use a soft stylus-like instrument such as the eraser
tip of a lead pencil to activate the functions of the V-Touch AFAD controller.
