6. MENU FUNCTIONS
Follow loop in (3-2-2)
This function is used to control how Automower
searches for the charging station.
Automower always starts the search for the
charging station in an irregular search method. In
some gardens this is not sufficient for the mower
to quickly find the charging station. The search
can then be epitomized using the Follow loop in
function.
When the mower still can not find the charging
station after a specific period of irregular
searching, it also starts to search for the guide
wires and after a further period also the boundary
wire to follow one of them into the charging
station instead. This time is stated in minutes, and
delays searching for guide 1, guide 2 and the
boundary wire.
The delay time can be adapted to the shape of the
garden in the Follow loop in function.
Automower has a default delay setting of 7
minutes for guide 1 and guide 2 and 11 minutes
for the boundary wire. A delay of 99 minutes
means that the function is deactivated.
If both search methods are to be activated, it is
possible for example to set 5 minutes for Guide 1
delay and Guide 2 delay and 9 minutes for
Boundary delay. Automower then searches
irregularly for 5 minutes and then searches for
the guide wires for 4 minutes. If by this time it has
not found one of the guide wires, the mower will
now search for both the boundary wire and guide
wires.
If it is not suitable in the installation to follow the
boundary wire, 99 minutes should be specified as
the delay for the boundary wire.
It is of course possible to specify the same delay
time for both the guide wires and the boundary
wire, e.g. 5 minutes. Automower then searches
irregularly for 5 minutes and when it does not find
the charging station, it continues to search either
by following the guide wires or the boundary wire,
depending on which one it reaches first. Different
delay times can also be chosen for guide 1 and
guide 2.
The mower does not change the search method: If
the mower starts to follow the boundary wire it will
not switch to follow a guide wire.
(Automower 220 AC only has guide 1)
