4 If the Base Station does not
detect a Saved Position, it will:
Show no orange Position Light. Show no blue Transmission Light. Emit a five-second continuous error tone.

BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING
Robot, Tablet, or Base Station not working as they should? Check the following first:
1 Are the batteries in the Tablet, the Robot, and for the Base Station fully charged?
2 Is the Robot’s battery seated properly in its compartment? Is the compartment latch locked?
3 Are the antennas attached to the Base Station and the Robot?
4 Is the Emergency Stop button engaged? Are the Bumper stop mechanisms engaged?
5 Is the Tablet connected to the Robot’s WiFi? Is the Robot connected to the App (does the Robot appear in the App)? Is the WiFi blocked?
6 Is the Tablet receiving a cellular signal? Is Roaming Data turned on? Is the cellular signal strong? Do 4G and R appear above the cell signal indicator on the Tablet?
7 Reboot the Robot and the Tablet. Shut them down completely, then power up again.

IMPORTANT DAILY TASKS
Charge batteries EVERY DAY.
Charge Robot Batteries. Charge the Tablet. Charge the Base Station batteries (Pole Battery or LP-E6 batteries).
Monitor battery life on the Tablet, Robot, and Base Station.
If you paint multiple fields a day, consider upgrading to a Pole Battery or buying additional LP-E6 batteries. For best performance and to prevent damage, keep batteries on all components above 25% charge.
Check the field you are painting for obstacles or bad field condition. Clean Robot thoroughly after EVERY use.
Remove Quick Fan Cap, Spray Nozzle, Gasket, and Chamber Reducer. Wash them all with warm water. Run warm (not hot) water through the Paint System (hoses, pump, sprayer) until clear. Remove the Mesh Filter from the housing on the tube in the Paint System and wash it in warm water.
