a.

 

For  two  robots  provided  with  sinusoidal  signal,  leave  at  least  60-90cm  between  the  two 
perimeter wires 

b.

 

For two robots provided with TX-S1 signal, leave at least 60cm between the two perimeter 
wires 

c.

 

For two robots provided with different signals (sinusoidal and TX-S1), leave at least 90cm 
between  the  perimeter  wires.  In  addition,  set  the  robot  provided  with  sinusoidal  signal  on 
channel B or C. 

Advantages: 

o

 

Only one robot stops in case of failure to the signal transmission items on one garden. 

o

 

It is not necessary to find a location for the connection of the two gardens. 

Disadvantages: 

o

 

On  robot  working  on  garden  2  it  is  necessary  to  install  the  channel  B  (receiver  and 
trasnmitter). 

o

 

In case of failure to one robot, the other one can not be used as a substitude.  

 

In any case, it is suggested to ask GGP technicians in order to evaluate the different installation options. 
 
 

2.6.1.1

 

Example 

 
The  figures  show  an  example  of  more  than  2  robots  at  working  close  one  to  the  others  (mowing  of  area 
inside red rectangule).  

•

 

Big area 

•

 

Work time only during the night 

•

 

Robots aree obliged to remain inside specific areas without crossing the sidewalks
