Manual mode
In this mode, you can drive the robot manually using the joystick in the robot interface. Only
one person can control the robot manually at a time. To ensure that nobody else takes
control of the robot, the robot issues a token to the device on which you activate the Manual
mode.

In this mode, the robot executes the programmed mission. After switching the key to this
mode, you can remove the key, and the robot will continue driving autonomously. In
autonomous mode, the joystick is disabled in the robot interface.
