Figure 2.11. Turn the Manual brake release switch clockwise to release the brakes.
The mechanical brakes require electrical power to be released, so if the robot is
without power, the mechanical brakes cannot be released. You can see if the
robot is powered by checking if the Power button on the control panel lights up.
When the robot is driving the robot engages and releases the mechanical brakes
automatically. You should only release the brakes manually when you want to
move the robot by hand.
When you release the brakes manually, all power to the motors is cut. This
means the robot loses connection to some of the CAN bus nodes and the robot
does not receive data that it needs to localize itself. After moving the robot
manually, you must correct the robot's location on the map. Once you engage
the automatic brake system, the connection to the CAN bus nodes is
restablished, and the robot can update its location on the map automatically.
The robot cannot operate while the mechanical brakes are released
manually.
