value decreases the rate of deceleration resulting in smoother speed control. When applying the brake,
i.e. opposite throttle to the direction you are currently moving, you are forcing the chassis to stop
with 100% deceleration, no matter what figure is shown as the DEC value.
FUNCTION SWITCH
– Emergency Brake:
This switch is set to Emergency Brake, switching this during
operation will command the AGITO to stop as quickly as possible and hold the AGITO in position.
There are three modes of operation, UP & DOWN, these are explained later in the manual.
STEERING INPUT
- Steering mode control:
Turns the chassis according to the steering mode selected
(TRAX Mode: Controls Tower modes).
Whilst in menus, the steering input also functions as a left/right control.
“2-4-C” - Steering mode:
Control switches between 3 steering modes:
•
2-wheel steering:
front wheel pair steers
•
4-wheel steering:
front and rear wheel turn in opposite directions reducing the turning
circle and pivots the chassis around the middle during a turn.
•
Crab steer:
front and rear wheels turn the same way resulting a sideways sliding
movement instead of a turn
STEER LIMIT
- Steering lock limit:
Sets the maximum steering angle possible with a full left or right
steering input. Good for accurate curves and reducing sensitivity during high-speed movement.
(TRAX Mode: Tower Limits)
STEER RATE
- Steering speed control:
Adjusts the speed of the Steering (This is currently disabled).
(TRAX Mode: Tower Speed)
MODE SWITCH
- Film & Free mode:
This switch is designed to allow you to setup and quickly swap
between 2 types of movement behaviour. For example, a slow and very controlled camera movement
on “Film” mode, and a faster manoeuvring mode in “free” mode. The system automatically remembers
the last settings being used before the modes are changed.
