Narrative:
I was coming into cvg for landing. I was told to follow an air carrier large transport for a visual approach to runway 18L. The large transport was off my right wing. I did not feel that separation was going to be a factor. I continued with other duties. It later became obvious that our courses were converging. I initiated a climbing left turn. Soon after our TCASII went in a TA, then a 'RA' mode, directing a climb. We notified ATC of this. They gave us vectors to increase our separation behind the large transport. The landing was uneventful.

Narrative: I WAS COMING INTO CVG FOR LNDG. I WAS TOLD TO FOLLOW AN ACR LGT FOR A VISUAL APCH TO RWY 18L. THE LGT WAS OFF MY R WING. I DID NOT FEEL THAT SEPARATION WAS GOING TO BE A FACTOR. I CONTINUED WITH OTHER DUTIES. IT LATER BECAME OBVIOUS THAT OUR COURSES WERE CONVERGING. I INITIATED A CLBING L TURN. SOON AFTER OUR TCASII WENT IN A TA, THEN A 'RA' MODE, DIRECTING A CLB. WE NOTIFIED ATC OF THIS. THEY GAVE US VECTORS TO INCREASE OUR SEPARATION BEHIND THE LGT. THE LNDG WAS UNEVENTFUL.
