Remove the Operating mode key during normal operation. The vibrations
from the robot's driving may shake the key and plug, and can cause an
unwanted Protective stop.
Operating modes
MiR600 has two operating modes: Manual mode and Autonomous mode.
Manual mode
In this mode, you can drive the robot manually using the joystick in the robot interface. Only
one person can control the robot manually at a time. To ensure that nobody else takes
control of the robot, the robot issues a token to the device on which you activate the Manual
mode.
For information about activating this mode, see Driving the robot in Manual mode on
page61.
To control the robot manually, you either need to connect the robot to your
wireless network or connect an access point to the robot so you can connect to
it wirelessly—see Connecting to the robot interface on page55.
Autonomous mode
In this mode, the robot executes the programmed missions. After switching the key to this
mode, you can remove the key, and the robot will continue driving autonomously. In
Autonomous mode, the joystick is disabled in the robot interface.
