Home Checkup Test
If Orb-i is not performing as well as he should, you can diagnose the problem with a simple home
checkup test.
Putting Orb-i in/out of Checkup mode
To put Orb-i in Checkup mode:
Press and hold the “GO” “CHARGE” and “WI-FI” buttons simultaneously for a few seconds until the
bot says: “Home Checkup Mode Activated”. In this mode, Orb-i’s LiDAR sensor rotates.
To exit the Checkup mode:
Press the “GO” “CHARGE” and “WI-FI” buttons together again. You’ll hear “Exiting Home Checkup
Mode” and Orb-i’s LiDAR sensor stops rotating.
Important Notes:
- During the test, if Orb-i’s left idle for over a minute, he’ll automatically exit the Home Checkup Test.
- To move among Steps in the Checkup test, press the Wi-Fi button.
- To start / stop the tests in each Step, press the GO button until you hear “Begin Test” and “Stop
Test”. Always stop a test before moving to the next step.
