NOTE:
Certain Mobile Software suite tuning parameters (such as
PlanRes
)
might have a negative effect on the number of supported AIVs. Before tuning
any configuration parameters discuss your objectives with an Omron rep-
resentative.
Robot Jobs
Your Enterprise Manager 2100 can support more AIVs if the job characteristics are as follows:
l
AIV job routes are not complicated by many sub-tasks.
l
Interaction with a Warehouse Management System (WMS) or Manufacturing Execution
System (MES) is relatively simple and automated.
l
There is minimal use of payload devices and interaction with automated devices such
as conveyors.
l
AIVs are not competing for limited resources such as goals or docking stations.
l
Jobs use FIFO queuing instead of non-FIFO queuing.
Communications Network
Your Enterprise Manager 2100 can support more AIVs if the network characteristics are as fol-
lows:
l
Dedicated, high-speed network with adequate per-robot wireless bandwidth.
l
Good access point coverage with few or no low-signal (shadow) locations.
l
Network (LAN and Wireless) provides a good quality of service (QoS) to the Enterprise
Manager software.
If you have any questions when planning the number of AIVs for an enterprise, contact your
local Omron sales office for assistance.
