4.3 Configuring a Touchscreen
you can save map collections and deploy your platform in any of your working spaces
by selecting the appropriate map file.
Setting Up Cart-Parking Goals
Any location where you want a cart to be picked up or dropped off needs to have a cor-
responding goal on the map. Pay special attention to the direction of the goals, as the trans-
porter may need extra room to maneuver into the correct position for coupling.
Marking Cart-Parking Goals on Floor
The purpose of marking the parking goals on your floor is so that a human being knows
where to leave a cart, so that the transporter will find it and be able to couple with it.
Even if people will never be moving carts, this step is recommended, so that someone doesn’t
place other items where a cart needs to be parked.
If people will be moving carts, make sure that your markings include the direction of the goal,
so the transporter will be approaching from the correct direction.
The easiest way to accurately mark the goals where a cart may be parked is to send the trans-
porter to each cart-parking goal, and, while the transporter is at the goal, put down tape mark-
ings that include the size of the cart, as well as the transporter‘s orientation. The transporter
will always approach the goal from the same direction, so the cart needs to be oriented cor-
rectly.
4.3 Configuring a Touchscreen
You configure the touchscreen's appearance and behavior with the MobilePlanner software.
The tasks include setting the mode to use, setting up goals for relocalization, and specifying a
custom screen logo and the language to be used for the display.
Touchscreen Ethernet Setup
The touchscreen plugs into the User LAN port on the platform‘s core.
NOTE:
After making and saving changes within User LAN Ethernet Settings,
the platform has to be power-cycled for those changes to take effect. If the only
change is to enable DHCP, then the platform does not have to be power-cycled.
In the MobilePlanner software, select:
MobilePlanner > SetNetGo
Network > User LAN Ethernet
Ensure that:
l
the IP address subnet doesn’t conflict with the Wireless Ethernet IP subnet
l
Interface mode is set to Accessory
l
DHCP Server for Accessories is set to Enable
l
DHCP IP Range is large enough to provide IP addresses for all connected devices
