FUNCTION
Solar Mower’s working method
Function
The fundamental principle behind your Solar Mower is that it
cuts as soon as there is sufficient daylight. A number of
interconnected solar cells convert the daylight to electrical
energy. When the Solar Mower is in the sun the energy is
sufficient to power the mower and charge the batteries. The
Solar Mower cuts continuously when it is charged.
The Solar Mower is controlled by an integrated computer that
consists of a circuit board and microprocessor. The computer is
the Solar Mower’s “brain” and handles all of its functions,
commands and path selection by means of the data gathered
via the keyboard, sensor, solar panels and the charging status
of the batteries.
Movement pattern
It always starts its work
according to the random
principle, i.e. the starting path is
unplanned. Each time it hits an
obstacle or senses the signal
from the boundary wire, the
microprocessor signals a new
direction. This is designed so
that the Solar Mower never
regularly repeats the same
movement pattern.
If the Solar Mower reaches a
section of grass that is longer
than a previous section of grass,
it can start to mow systema-
tically. It then mows in a spiral
pattern, mowing the section that
has longer grass than the
surrounding area. After this it
returns to the random principle.
nitially the Auto Mower works
for a few hours to get an idea of
the average length and
thickness of the grass. Only
then does it start working
systematically.
When the bumper on the front of the Solar Mower collides with
an obstacle the Solar Mower reverses and chooses a new
direction.
Significance of the weather
The Solar Mower continuously analyses the current light
conditions and normally avoids shadows. As the shade moves
depending on the position of the sun, the lawn mower works in
the light, or sunshine for the greater part of the day.
The Solar Mower will also mow in the shade if the battery has a
sufficient charge. It will then run a few metres in the shade at a
time and then reverse to avoid the risk of becoming stranded in
the shade. If the lawn is generally well-cut the Solar Mower will
work in the shade for longer periods.
Large amounts of light (sunny weather) means that the Solar
Mower charges fully before it starts to move, while small
amounts of light (shade) means that it charges for a while and
then moves in the hope of finding a sunny part of the lawn. If
the Solar Mower systematically stops to charge in the shade,
this is a sign that the battery is defective.
