Do not allow the AIV to drive through an opening that has an automatic gate/door

Falling Hazards
Physical Barriers
The edge of a loading dock, the entrance to downward stairs, or any other substantial drop
that is within the AIV's expected operating area should be physically marked so that the AIV's
navigation laser will see the barrier, and stop before reaching it. The AIV's navigation laser
scans at 201 mm (7.9 inches), so the barrier must cover at least that height.
This needs to be continuous at the site, so that the AIV can't drive around or through it to the
dropoff.
Logical Barriers
You should also use forbidden areas, sectors, or lines with several feet of safety zone (padding)
before the actual dropoff, to ensure the the AIV will not try to drive there.
These need to be continuous at the site, so that the AIV can't plan a path to drive around or
between them to the dropoff.
Electrical Hazards
Do not use power extension cords with the docking station unless properly rated.
l
Never access the interior of the platform with the charger attached.
l
Immediately disconnect the battery after opening the battery compartment door.
l
Avoid shorting the terminals of the battery.
Do not use any charger not supplied by Omron Adept Technologies, Inc.
