For more examples, contact your distributor for the guide How to use zones on
a map.
Descending staircases
Issue: The robot sensors cannot detect descending staircases. Marking a staircase as a wall
on the map will only confuse the robot as it will try to navigate from a wall that is not there.
Solution: Mark staircases and areas surrounding staircases or holes in the floor as
Forbidden zones on the map.
Low hanging fixtures
Issue: If a low hanging fixture is outside of the robot sensors' range, the robot may try to
travel beneath it. This can be dangerous if the robot is carrying a tall top module or load that
can collide with the fixture.
Solution: Mark the area where the low hanging fixture is located as a Forbidden zone.
