Joystick Use
Use the joystick to drive the AIV manually and to create the scan used to make a map.
Squeeze the trigger to enable the directional control button.
Push the directional control button forward or back to make the platform move in that dir-
ection. Push the directional control button to the side to make the platform rotate in that dir-
ection. Diagonal positions of the directional control button move the platform in an arc.
Releasing the trigger causes the AIV to slow to a stop. To stop more quickly, continue to
squeeze the trigger and pull or push the directional control button to its limit in the opposite
direction of the platform’s travel.
Use the joystick’s GOAL button for marking positions while making a map scan.
CAUTION:
The safety scanning laser is not tied into the E-Stop chain when
driving with the joystick. The Operator should maintain control of the joystick
and the platform when the joystick is connected to the platform.
