Text Messages and Troubleshooting
7.1 Messaging
The Robomower is equipped with a sophisticated monitoring system that will notify you in the
form of a text message in the LCD panel when common operational faults occur. In addition, it
will also communicate in text form several messages that are meant as a prompt to the user to
perform a certain function or action. In the event the Robomower has not completed an
anticipated operation and has stopped in the lawn, it will typically display a text message
informing you of the reason it has stopped. If the LCD screen is blank, pressing the ‘GO’ button
one time will wake the mower up and the last fault or message displayed prior to stopping will
now be displayed.
While it is impossible to list every circumstance that will result in a message display, the most
common reasons for a particular message are provided in the following chart. Following this
chart, in Section 7.2, you will also find additional operational and fault issues that may not display
a particular text message in the LCD panel. For issues that cannot be resolved through the use
of these charts please contact your service provider.
