Dropoffs
NOTE: Until the queuing manager has been enabled, the touchscreen will not dis-
play any of the dropoff goal buttons. Refer to the Mobile Robot Software Suite User's
Guide.
In this mode, the center of the screen displays touch-sensitive dropoff buttons, indicating the
goals associated with them. If there are more buttons than can be displayed at once, a sliver of
the adjacent row of buttons is shown, to indicate their existence. See Screenshot Showing Top Bar
and Left, Right, and Center Panes on page 109.
Navigation of the center pane, when there are more buttons than can be displayed at one time,
is done by touching the screen, between buttons, and dragging the pane up or down.
The color and border of a dropoff button indicate the status of the associated job.

The Operator can use this pane for entering the goals where they want the AIV to go for
dropoffs, after leaving its current location.
Touching a dropoff button and then Go requests that the AIV be sent to that goal. Touching
several buttons in sequence, followed by touching Go, requests that the AIV be sent to all of
those goals, in the order in which the dropoff buttons were touched. The order may be altered
by assigning high-priority to any of the goals.
The number of buttons, the content of each button, and the goal associated with each button is
configured with the MobilePlanner software.
Goals will be serviced by the AIV in the order in which you touch their buttons.
l
The selected dropoff goals are not sent to the queuing manager until you touch Go. After
l
being received by the queuing manager, each goal is considered to be a job.
Touching a Planned (selected) dropoff button will de-select it, without affecting other
l
Planned dropoff buttons.
Simply touching a Pending or In-Progress goal button will not affect the associated job.
An explicit Cancel is required to cancel a job in either of those states.
Buttons will change appearance when you select/de-select them, change their priority,
l
when the job is received by the queuing manager, when an AIV is on its way to the but-
ton's goal, and when the job is completed (and AIV dismissed).
