• Corridor width (3-2-3)
The Corridor width setting defines the distances
from the mower's path to the boundary wire or
the guide wire when following these to/from the
charging station.
The area beside the wires used
by the mower is called the Corridor.
A low corridor width value represents a narrow
corridor while a high value represents a wide
corridor. With a narrow corridor the Automower
always runs close to the boundary wire
respective guide wire. With a wide corridor the
Automower varies how it runs, i.e. close to and
further from the boundary wire respective guide wire.
Corridor width is a relative distance and is stated
on a scale from
0 to 20. The lower the Corridor
width value the closer Automower follows the
boundary wire and/or guide wire.
Different corridor widths can be set for the
boundary wire and guide wire.The default setting
on Automower is set to a value of
6 for both the
boundary wire and guide wire.
The higher the stated Corridor width value, the
less risk there is of tracks forming. However, a
high corridor value means that Automower may
find it difficult to enter passages.
A garden with large open areas should have a
wide Corridor, i.e. a high Corridor width value.
A
garden with passages should have a narrow
Corridor, i.e. a low value for the Corridor width.
When the value is set to 0 for the Corridor width,
Automower will run along the boundary wire,
which means it will run with half the mower inside
the loop and half the mower outside. As there are
often flower beds, hedges and walls along with
the boundary wire Corridor width
0 is not
normally recommended. Should you still like to
state this value, the boundary wire must lay 16"
from solid objects instead of the normal 14".
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The distance at which the mower follows the
boundary wire varies depending on how the
working area appears. You should perform
some tests to find the highest possible
Corridor width. Use the
Test IN (3-2-4)
function to try different values.
