You can mute the Protective field when driving the robot in Manual mode:
1 Put the robot into Manual mode—see "Driving the robot in Manual mode" on page71.
2 In the robot interface, select Muted Protective fields in the joystick control.
3 In the dialog box, select Yes to acknowledge the muting of the Protective fields.
NOTICE
If you are using Manual mode, you can mute the Protective fields without marking
the area as an operating hazard zone. It is the responsibility of the user driving the
robot to ensure that it does not damage equipment or injure personnel. The robot
will not stop automatically for detected obstacles.
Pre-configured muting of the Protective fields
The Protective fields are automatically muted when the robot docks to most types of markers,
including shelves. This ensures that the robot can drive closely to the marker without entering
Protective stop.
The only marker that does not mute the Protective fields is the L-marker.
The Protective fields are muted from when the docking starts and until the robot has undocked
and has started a new action that requires the robot to plan a path.
The Protective fields will remain muted during any Relative move action that comes right after the
docking action. The Protective fields will also remain muted if you engage the Manual brake
release—see "Manual brake release switch" on page21.
For more information about markers, docking, and undocking, see "Markers" on page158.
11.3 Overspeed avoidance
The overspeed avoidance function prevents the robot from driving if the motor encoders
measure that the robot is driving faster than the predefined safety limit. This can occur if there is
a hardware error in the robot, or if it drives down a steep slope.
