Select the percentage that corresponds to the size
of the remote area relative to the total working area.
If the remote area is for instance less than half of the
total working area, then
Rarely
should be selected. If
the remote area is for instance half of the total
working area,
Medium
should be selected. Compare
with the examples in
Yard layout examples on page

. The default setting is
Rarely
.
3.14.1.2 Distance
Enter the distance in metres along the guide wire from
the charging station to the remote area where the
robotic lawnmower begins mowing. Tip! Use the
Test
OUT
function to determine how far it is to the remote
area. The distance, stated in metres, will be shown in
the robotic lawnmower’s display.
3.14.2 Remote start 2
If the working area contains two remote areas, the guide
wire should be installed so that it reaches both areas.
Remote start 1
and
Remote start 2
can then be
combined to steer the robotic lawnmower to each area.
The settings for
Proportion
and
Distance
are carried out
in the same way as for
Remote start 1
. The default
setting is
Never
.
Take into account that the total figure for
Proportion
cannot exceed 100%. If one has for instance selected
Often
for
Remote start 1
, then one can only select
Never
or
Rarely
for
Remote start 2
.
3.14.3 Test settings
In the
Test settings
menu, it is possible to test how the
settings for
Remote start 1
and
Remote start 2
work in
the working area in question.
3.14.3.1 Test OUT
The
Test OUT
function is used to test the installation
and to calculate the distance from the charging station to
a remote area.
To test the settings in
Remote start 1
:
Park the robotic lawnmower in the charging station and
select
Test OUT
-
Remote start 1
. The robotic
lawnmower will then leave the charging station straight
away along the guide wire and begin mowing after the
designated distance.
How to measure the distance from the charging station
to a remote area:
Enter a distance which beyond any doubt exceeds the
real figure. The maximum distance that can be entered
is 100 m. Park the robotic lawnmower in the charging
station and select
Test OUT
. The robotic lawnmower will
immediately leave the charging station. The distance,
stated in metres, will be shown in the mower display as
the robotic lawnmower operates. Stop the robotic
lawnmower at the required position and note the
distance. Enter the displayed number of metres in the
Distance
field for the working area in question.
If
Remote start 2
has been activated, i.e. if another
option other than Never has been selected for
Proportion
, these settings must also be tested.
Remote
start 2
test is performed in the same way as for
Remote
start 1
.
3.14.3.2 Test IN
The
Test IN
function allows you to test how well the
robotic lawnmower docks with the charging station.
Note:
Test IN
can only be performed after
Test OUT
has
been performed.
Selecting this function causes the robotic lawnmower to
travel directly along the guide wire towards the charging
station and to dock with it. The test is approved only if
the robotic lawnmower is able to dock with the charging
station at the first attempt. If the robotic lawnmower is
unable to dock on the first attempt, it will automatically
try again. The installation is not approved if the robotic
lawnmower needs two or more attempts to dock with the
charging station.
3.14.4 Drive past wire
The front of the robotic lawnmower always passes the
boundary wire by a specific distance before the mower
turns around. The default distance is 25 cm, but this can
be changed if required. The minimum value is 20 cm
and the maximum value is 30 cm. Note that the distance
given is only an approximate value. In reality, the actual
distance the robotic mower passes the boundary wire
can vary.
Specify the number of centimetres you want the robotic
lawnmower to pass the boundary wire and press
OK
.
3.15 Security
Through this selection, settings relating to security and
the connection between the mower and the charging
station can be made.
