Chapter 2: Operational Safety
OMRON recommends that you train personnel on the safe use of the brake release button, and
procedures for safely pushing an HD-1500.
!
CAUTION:
PERSONAL INJURY RISK
The pushing locations of the AMR are low. You must use safe pushing/
pulling practices when manually moving the AMR.
Releasing an E-Stop
This section describes how to release an E-Stop and bring the AMR back into service.
!
CAUTION:
PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE RISK
If an AMR’s E-Stop is triggered, ensure that the cause of the E-Stop is resolved,
and all surrounding areas are clear before releasing the E-Stop.
To release an E-Stop:
1. Make sure that all surrounding areas are clear before you release the E-Stop button so
that the AMR has room to maneuver.
2. Rotate the E-Stop button in the direction of the arrows on the button and allow it to pop
up.
3. After you release the E-Stop button, you must enable the motors manually by pressing
the green ON button on the operator panel.
After you enable the motors there is a delay of several seconds before the AMR can resume
operation.
NOTE:
If you manually move the AMR while it is powered off, it may not be
able to determine its current location. Use the localization feature in MobilePlan-
ner to localize the AMR.
Enabling motor power, either at the start-up or after an E-Stop release, must be done through a
manual action at the system, and only after the operator has confirmed that it is safe to return
the AMR to operation. Enabling the motor power must be an additional act after releasing an
E-Stop, and it is done by pressing the Operator Panel's On button.
