4. Charge until new mission in queue
You can choose to let the robot stay in the charging station until it receives a new mission
by selecting Charge until new mission in queue. This is useful, for example when the
charging action is not followed by other actions, or the charging action is not included in
a looped mission in which case the robot will continue after the set charging time or
percentage is fulfilled.
Topping up cycle
If the battery reaches 100% while the robot is waiting for a new mission,
the charger disconnects and lets the battery discharge until it has dropped
to 90%. It then connects again and tops up until the battery is back to 100%.
This may mean that even if the robot has been in the charging station
overnight, you might find it with a battery level just above 90% the next
morning depending on where it is in the topping up cycle.
