When starting to run a work scheme it should be entered in the START menu. In the work scheme, you enter which
recipes will be used and their individual order.
Put the robot into the starting position for the cleaning process
Put the robot within 1 meter behind the first position marker. Make sure the side-wheel is in contact with the wall
on the side of the aisle where the markers are located.
Press START and follow the instruction under the ? mark on the screen.
11. Teaching hints
1.
The teaching process should take place using working pressure, because the arm is affected by the power
from the flowing water.
2.
Avoid retraction of the telescope when the boom is in its maximum elevated position, since this causes a
high level of stress on the telescoping motor.
3.
The teaching of programs should be done in dirty pens in order to observe the track of the water jet.
4.
Ensure that there are no local obstacles in one pen such as gas extraction equipment, posts, etc. If so, the
teaching process should take place in this particular pen to avoid collisions.
5.
Keep some clearance (approx. 15 cm) from house equipment during the teaching process. This is important
when changing the position of the boom, to avoid collision if the cleaning robot has a slightly different
position during the cleaning process. There can also be a discrepancy in the house equipment when going
from one pen to another.
6.
If it is not possible to take point 5 into account, because of a lack of space or similar problems, you should
consider moving away from the area that could cause a collision before you change the height of the boom,
for example, or retract the telescopic arm. In this way you can be sure that there will not be a production
stoppage due to collisions, even if some parts of the arm touch the equipment.
7.
Take care of the house equipment; keep the nozzle at the right distance.
8.
Remember that the robot obtains different parking positions by driving forwards or backwards to the
marker. Therefore, try to teach it in the order that it will subsequently be given in the recipe.
9.
It is important that no
major
obstacles are located in a position that could interfere with the guidance wheel
during movement in the cleaning process. This could cause the robot to skid and lose its exact positioning.
To avoid this, extra position markers can be used.
Before cleaning, check the following:
1. That no magnetic position marker brackets have been moved or are missing
2. That each magnetic position marker is fixed in the correct bracket
3. That the magnetic switch is set in the same position it was in during teaching.
4. That the aisle and pens are clear of obstacles, which can interrupt the cleaning process
5. That the high-pressure cleaning unit is powered up
6. That water is connected to the high-pressure cleaner
7. That the high-pressure hose is free to move and secured centrally behind the hose reel
8. That the charger is disconnected
9. That the side-wheels is placed in the correct position, see screen.
10. That you know where to start the cleaning process, check for the first position marker
