last known location. This enables automatic localization at the next power-on.
NOTE: You can use the key switch to disable and lock the OFF button. Remove
the key to prevent anyone from shutting down the LD-250.
Brake Release Button
You might need to move an AMR manually when battery power is low or if you want to park
in a constrained space. A small amount of battery power is required to release the brakes.
Without power, the brakes remain engaged.
When moving an AMR manually, the following considerations apply:
l
You cannot push the AMR in reverse above speeds of 300 m/sec.
l
Push only at the designated locations. See: LD-250 Packaging on page 48.
CAUTION: Do not push the AMR from a high position on its payload struc-
ture. This might cause the AMR to topple. Push only from a low, designated
safe push point.
1.
Press any E-Stop button.
2.
Press and hold the yellow brake release button on the Operator Panel.
3.
Push the AMR at any of the designated safe push points. See: LD-250 Packaging on page
48.
7.5 Other Controls and Indicators
The LD-250 is not equipped with a beacon or light tower. You can optionally supply and
install such a device if required,
This section also describes indicators on the LD-250 Core and the battery.
Indications Provided by Light Discs Light Outputs
The LD-250 has circular lights on the sides that indicate motion, turns, and several other
states.
Optionally, add a user-supplied warning beacon to your payload structure. For safety stand-
ards compliance, the sequence of lights should be red, yellow, green from the top down.
This optional beacon provides additional extra signaling when connected to the LD-250 Core's
LIGHTS output (LIGHTS (Light Pole) on page 102). The beacon can indicate movement, or sig-
nal an Operator that the AMR is waiting for assistance.
Light disc and optional beacon states are described here, and summarized in the following
tables.
Driving Straight
Blue arcs on each side of the LD-250 will appear to rotate in the direction of the LD-250's
travel, to let nearby people know that it is moving (or about to move). If used, the Beacon
blinks green.
