System Operation
Pre-Operations Inspection
Before each mission:
1. Ensure that all fasteners are in place and secure.
2. Check all the controller connections.
3. Check that there is no mechanical damage to the vehicle and tether.
4. Power up the system and test each function to ensure proper operation before sending it on its
mission.
5. Check that the Vehicle Type is set to NANOMAG.
Warning:
Vehicle type must always be set to NANOMAG as motor damage will occur if the vehicle type
is wrong (The 24-Volt motor will be sent 48 volts).
Post-Operations Inspection
At the conclusion of each mission:
1. Visually inspect the vehicle for damage or entrained debris.
2. Test each function to ensure proper operation.
3. If the mission is totally complete, power down the system.
4. Clean the system and store it properly in a dry environment for next use.
Note:
If the
NanoMag™ is put away in good working order, deployment time is minimized the next time
the vehicle is needed.
Controller Operation
Refer to the Versatrax
™ controller manual for controller setup and operating instructions.
Note:
The portable controller routes rear (AUX) video directly to the built-in monitor and recorder.
Consequently, the Auxiliary Video jack on the portable controller is disabled.
Maintenance
Changing a Track Belt
The NanoMag can be outfitted with either a low-profile belt for magnetic operation, or with a deep lug belt
for non-magnetic operation.
Note:
For easy identification, the idler wheel has six (6) screws versus four (4) screws in the drive wheel.
1. Remove the six screws from the idler wheel cover and remove the cover.
2.
Loosen the idler screw (Allen Flat Head) using a 5/32” Allan key.
3. Slip the belt off the idler wheel.
