Chapter 7: Operation
Figure 7-2. Battery LEDs, Push-Button (Show Level, above), Power Cable, and Data Cable
Pushing the “SHOW LEVEL” button displays its state of charge. This can be useful when a bat-
tery is in storage, and you want to know its state of charge.
NOTE: After pressing the SHOW LEVEL push button, the battery will display the state of
charge for a brief time, then go back to scanning back and forth one LED at a time. It will
continue doing this for 4 hours, until it powers itself off. To turn off the pack manually,
press and hold the push button for 10 seconds.
Docking Station
The automated docking station provides both a manual and an automated means for rechar-
ging your platform battery.
Autonomous Charging
During normal, autonomous operation, the AIV manages charging automatically through the
automated docking station. The AIV will approach the docking station frontward, and then
turn around and back onto the docking station to charge. There is about a 10-second delay
between when an AIV docks and the charging LED turns on.
Connecting and disconnecting the AIV with network and onboard clients will not disturb the
charging state (though moving the AIV will, of course). The station supplies ample power for
all onboard systems while charging its battery, so you can continue operating those systems
while charging.
If the AIV is powered off, it will turn on automatically when pushed onto the docking station.
An AIV cannot be turned off while on the docking station.
