NOTICE
The robot prioritizes the instructions it receives in the following order:
1. Instructions from zones.
2. Instructions from mission actions.
3. Instructions from system settings (except from the setting Maximum
allowed speed, which is never overruled by neither zones nor mission
actions).
Examples of when and how to use zones
The following sections describe examples of cases where certain zones can be used to
improve the robot's operations.
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.
