Chapter 4: Touchscreen
The touchscreen provides a means for Operators to interact with an AMR wherever the AMR
is. This can be used by the Operator to:
l
check the status of the AMR
l
enter the next goals for the AMR
l
pause or release the AMR
In some systems, the touchscreen will come incorporated as part of an AMR, so there will be
no installation required by the user. You may still need to configure its behavior with Con-
figuration on page 34, and the Operation section will still apply.
The touchscreen is also offered as a standalone product, for users who want to incorporate the
touchscreen into their own LD platform-based AMR.
4.1 Installation
Components
The standalone touchscreen kit includes:
l
Touchscreen with attached bracket
l
Power supply (DC/DC converter) with bracket
l
Power cable, from core to power supply
l
Power cable, from power supply to touchscreen
l
Ethernet cable, between touchscreen and core
l
Gasket, between touchscreen and AMR mounting surface
This protects the touchscreen from vibrations of the AMR.
l
Spacers, to prevent the touchscreen from being pressed too hard into the gasket
l
Fleet Operations Workspace software
Software Installation
The Fleet Operations Workspace software includes support for the touchscreen. This software
needs to be installed before any of the steps in Configuration are performed.
When you purchase an Omron Robotics and Safety Technologies, Inc. AMR, this software suite
will be pre-loaded on it. It can be updated using the SetNetGo OS. See SetNetGo - Managing
Software Packages on page 26.
