Cleaning
WARNING!
Do not use a power washer or high pressure hose to clean your RMP. Use of these devices could force water into components that
must stay dry. See "Safety," p. 8, for more information. Failure to do so could expose you to electric shock, injury, burns, or cause
a fire.
The outside of the RMP can be cleaned by scrubbing with soap and water to remove any dirt and grime. Avoid getting water in the
connectors. Do not submerge in water.
If the inside of the RMP needs to be cleaned, contact Segway (see "Contact Information," p. 6). Do not use water or any liquid
cleaning agents inside the enclosure.
Software Updates
Periodically, Stanley Innovation releases new software updates for the RMP V3. Checking for new software updates should be
included as part of your regular platform maintenance schedule. New software may improve performance and/or change how the
RMP V3 functions. Always read the release notes prior to upgrading. Some upgrades may require an update to the PC side ROS
drivers as well.
To stay notified on new software updates you can “watch” the software on Github. Simply sign in to Github.com then navigate to
https://github.com/StanleyInnovation and select the software you’d like to be notified for. When it is updated you will automatically
get a notification via email. Stanley Innovation recommends signing up for
