Everything that you attach to the LD platform is referred to as the payload structure.
In some custom cases, we design and build the payload structure. In most cases, you will need
to design a payload structure that suits your application. This chapter discusses con-
siderations to be aware of when you design a payload structure for your platform.
The platform provides the mobility and navigation you will need, as well as power and I/O
connections between the platform and your payload structure, so the two can work effectively
together.

5.1 Safety

Warning Label

A No Riding label is shipped, unattached, with each platform. It is the user's responsibility to
place this in a prominent location on the payload, so Operators will see it.
Other warning labels will have been applied at the factory.

Warning Lights

An AIV is required for CE compliance to have a readily-visible warning device, such as a
flashing light, when it is either ready to move or is moving. The platform comes with light
discs on each side that do this. The core also provides an output, so you can add your own
warning device. This may be necessary for taller payloads, which may make the side light
discs not always visible.
The core has a Light Pole connector, which is covered in Rear Upper Core on page 66. This
can be used to drive a warning device in a more prominent location for taller AIVs.

Warning Buzzer

The core provides an output for driving a warning buzzer. The default behavior of the buzzer
is to sound when the AIV is moving in reverse, or when the safety systems are off. Its behavior
is configurable by the user, so it can be used to sound, for example, whenever the AIV is mov-
ing.
A buzzer kit, with buzzer and harness, is available as an option. See Warning Buzzer on page
134.
