Please include your robot's

 

serial number

 (look for it beside the 

Main Power

 switch)

we 

often need to understand your robot's configuration to best answer your question. 

Your message goes directly to the 

Activ

Media Robotics technical support team.  There a 

staff member will help you or point you to a place where you can find help.  

Tell us your robot’s SERIAL NUMBER 

Because this is a support option, not a general-interest newsgroup like 

pioneer-users

, 

we reserve the option to reply only to questions about problems with your robot or 

software.  

 

See Chapter 8
