If you use the same magnetic tape for markers as for the main tape strip, apply the markers
upside-down, relative to the tape. If you use tape with North up (rather than the South-up
tape) ensure that the markers are applied with their South side up.
The recommended marker length is 300 mm. Shorter markers can be used if the AMR is oper-
ating at slower than default speeds (< 500 mm/second).
The AMR will stop with the front sensor at the front end of the marker. Note the model-
dependent locations of the sensors to calculate where you should place the markers in relation
to the location where you want the AMR to stop.
NOTE: Even if you drive backward to reach a marker, the AMR will inten-
tionally overshoot, and then drive forward to align its front sensor with the front
of the marker. You should extend the markers at least 40 mm past the goal to
enable the AMR to reacquire the goal if it overshoots.
