RMP 210
The RMP 210 is a battery-powered Robotics Mobility Platform (RMP) meant to be used as the propulsion system for robotic
products. The RMP 210 is a compact, non-balancing platform with three wheels: two propulsion wheels and one caster wheel. It has
only one Motor Control Unit (MCU) and one propulsion battery, making it suitable for low payload applications that don't require
redundancy.
The powerbase contains the MCU and optional Balance Sensor Assembly (BSA) — if present. Additional electrical components
are mounted inside a User Interface (UI) box located above the powerbase. Propulsion batteries are mounted to the bottom of the
powerbase. The auxiliary battery is mounted to the top of the UI box.
The on/off button, external connectors, and indicator lights are mounted on an interface panel at the rear of the machine.
Communication with the RMP occurs over Ethernet.
Inside the UI box are the Centralized Control Unit (CCU), Auxiliary Battery Board (ABB), Smart Charger Board (SCB), and Power
Converter(s). A cable runs from the UI box to the powerbase.

Included Components
The RMP 210 comes with a Disable Button and External Power Supply. The Disable Button must be connected for the RMP to power
on and enter Standby Mode. When pressed, the Disable Button will cause the RMP to immediately shut down. The External Power
Supply is used to charge the RMP. When connected, indicator lights on the UI box show the charge status of each battery.
