Most of the connections that are available to the user are in the payload bay, which is the
space between the platform and the platform top plate. These include I/O and power con-
nections. Access to the payload bay is covered in Accessing the Payload Bay on page 150.
For a LD Platform Cart Transporter system, most of these connections will not usually be used.
The two connections outside of the payload bay are the Joystick port and the Maintenance Eth-
ernet port, which are located under a small access panel on the left side of the platform, in the
upper-right corner. Both of these ports connect to the core inside the payload bay.

Chapter 6: Connectivity
In order to generate maps with the LD Platform Cart Transporter, you
need to connect a joystick to its Joystick port.
The Joystick port is located under a small access panel on the left side
of the platform, in the upper-right corner.
The Maintenance Ethernet port is located under a small access panel
on the left side of the platform, in the upper-right corner.
Its IP address is 1.2.3.4, with Netmask 255.255.255.0.
Access to the SetNetGo OS is always enabled on this interface, and
does not require a password or a license.
For multi-AIV installations, or where you wish to send new com-
mands or receive status updates from the AIV, you need to have wire-
less Ethernet.
The AIV needs access to a docking station so it can charge itself. The
docking station needs access to AC power.
