7. Manipulating the robot

The cleaning robot can be controlled from either the operator panel or the joystick.
We recommend that you use the joystick during the teaching process. The joystick is connected to
i
the cleaning robot via a six-metre cable, which facilitates the teaching process and unwanted
contamination by manure or collision with the robot's telescopic arm is avoided.
Joystick
The joystick is connected to the black socket, which can be found at the rear of the cleaning robot, see Picture 2.
The same socket is used for charging the batteries. The plug must be turned 90 degrees for secure tightening when
connected. The joystick is used to control all motions of the cleaning robot, including turning water on and off.

The cleaning process requires magnetic position markers, see Picture 9. The position markers which
can be S or U shaped are placed in a bracket, mounted on the house equipment before the cleaning
process takes place. The cleaning robot reaches the markers during the cleaning process and position
information is transferred to the computer.

• Before programming, read "Hints for teaching".
• The programming should be done in a dirty pen with working water pressure.
• Any breaks during the programming process will not appear during automatic cleaning. Therefore, the
programming can be carried out in a relaxed way, with no requirement for haste.
