4-48 Description and Operation
Obstacles
The machine has a bumper that stops the vehicle immediately when it hits an object that is at least 60 cm
above floor level.
If the machine hits a solid object the bumper sensors are activated and the machine stops driving. After 30
seconds the machine tries to continue its route. If the bumper is still activated the machine waits again 30
seconds. The machine repeats this cycle maximum 5 times. If the bumper is still activated after 5 cycles an
alarm is generated and the machine goes out of operation. To resume operation the cause of the alarm
must be resolved and the pause button must be pushed. If the bumper is not activated anymore, the
machine resumes operation.
When the machine is in operation the bumper has an electric pulse on it (optional) to make sure cows do
not block the vehicle.
Barn door control
When the machine drives from one barn to another, it communicates with the barn door control unit to
open/close the barn door(s).
