Before you begin, press an E-Stop button and turn the HD-1500 off.
Follow these steps to install your additional warning buzzer:
1. Remove the user access panel cover.
2. Locate the LIGHTS port on the user access panel.
3. Connect the buzzer cable to the LIGHTS port. For information on the type of connector
required to connect to the LIGHTS port.
4. Then, connect the other end of the buzzer cable to the buzzer device itself, if it isn’t con-
nected already.
5. Configure the buzzer as appropriate for the environment in which the HD-1500 oper-
ates.
6. Mount the buzzer on your desired location, and verify that the buzzer works properly.
Considerations
Performance
Performance factors to consider when designing a payload structure are:
l
Size, weight, and center of gravity of the payload structure.
l
Power requirements for any electrical devices on the payload.
l
Serviceability and maintenance requirements.
Weight Constraints
The total operating weight of the AMR should comply with its specifications for payload and
any objects carried.
!
DANGER:
PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE RISK
The end-user of the AMR must perform a risk assessment to identify and mit-
igate any additional personal and property damage hazards caused by the pay-
load.
When designing and implementing your payload, consider the following:
l
If you operate the HD-1500 on the recommended hard, flat surface, additional payload
mass has a minimal effect on battery duration and operating time between recharges.
l
If the payload is tall and also has substantial weight, consider its effect on the AMR's
center of gravity.
l
If the payload overhangs or extends outward dynamically from the AMR (such as a
robot arm), it has a greater effect on the center of gravity. This is particularly important
if the payload is also conveying objects that add additional mass.
l
If the payload structure shifts during AMR movement, consider its effect on the AMR's
