5.2 Considerations

Warning Buzzer

The AMR Controller provides an output for controlling a warning buzzer as an auditory warn-
ing device. The warning buzzer is connected to the Safety Controller.
The buzzer must be audible above the ambient noise of the environment that the HD-1500
operates in. Depending on your environment's noise level, you may need to add an additional
buzzer and install to a location on your payload structure where the buzzer noise level reaches
higher than the ambient noise level.
You can optionally supply an LED signal tower which includes a built-in warning buzzer, or
a dedicated warning buzzer. OMRON offers a variety of LED signal towers, and dedicated
warning buzzers. Contact your OMRON representative for more information on the available
options.
You require the following tools to install the additional warning buzzer:
3 mm allen wrench for M5 screws.
l
Before you begin, press an E-Stop button and turn the HD-1500 off.
Follow these steps to install your additional warning buzzer:
1. Remove the user access panel cover. See: Remove and Replace the User Access Panel
Cover on page 264.
2. Locate the LIGHTS port on the user access panel. See: Figure 6-11.
3. Connect the buzzer cable to the LIGHTS port. For information on the type of connector
required to connect to the LIGHTS port, see: LIGHTS on page 163.
4. Then, connect the other end of the buzzer cable to the buzzer device itself, if it isn't con-
nected already.
5. Configure the buzzer as appropriate for the environment in which the HD-1500 oper-
ates.
6. Mount the buzzer on your desired location, and verify that the buzzer works properly.

5.2 Considerations

Performance

Performance factors to consider when designing a payload structure are:
Size, weight, and center of gravity of the payload structure.
l
Power requirements for any electrical devices on the payload.
l
Serviceability and maintenance requirements.
l

Weight Constraints

The total operating weight of the AMR should comply with its specifications for payload and
any objects carried. See: Performance on page 275.
