Access to the 

pioneer-users

 newslist is limited to subscribers, so your address is safe 

from spam.  However, the list currently is unmoderated, so please confine your 
comments and inquiries to issues concerning the operation and programming of Pioneer 
or PeopleBot robots. 

Support 

Have a problem? Can’t find the answer in this or any of the accompanying manuals?  
Or do you know a way that we might improve our robots?  Share your thoughts and 
questions directly with us: 

http://robots.activmedia.com/techsupport 

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. 

Tell us your robot’s SERIAL NUMBER. 

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.  

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.
