4. USE

4.2 Using the timer

The lawn should not be cut too often to obtain the best mowing result. Use the timer function (see 6.4 Timer

(2)on page 47) to avoid a downtrodden lawn and to get the maximum life from your Automower®.

For example, the quality of your lawn will improve if it is mown every other day instead of 12 hours each day. In addition, the grass benefits from resting completely during at least a three-day period once a month.

4.3 Using GPS-communication

A SIM card is required to use the device. This is normally purchased by the end user and fitted then in Automower® by the dealer, together with the GPS communication unit. The SIM card, assembly and installation are normally not included in the price of the GPS unit or the mower.

When the SIM card is installed, the administrator's phone number must be entered before the GPS communication unit can be used for the first time. Enter the required administrator's phone number by sending an SMS to Automower® with the command Spn1 followed by the phone number, e.g. Spn1 +46701234567. The GPS unit confirms the new administrator phone number by sending an SMS back with the message Set phone number 1 OK. This phone number is essential to operate the unit. A further four phone numbers can be entered for communicating with the mower.

SMS feature

In the case of malfunction where a message is displayed in the mower display (if the mower for instance gets stuck in a tree branch that has blown down), the GPS communication unit will send an SMS message. The message shown in the SMS describes in general terms what has happened, while the message in the mower display offers a more detailed description of the cause of the stoppage. A number of messages are presented in chapter 9.1 Fault messages (page 70).

The following SMS can be sent to Automower® to change settings or enquire of settings and status.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Note that it is important to write the messages exactly as outlined in the tables below, with spaces, dots and colons in the correct manner. All commands are confirmed by Automower® sending back an SMS.

The commands that start with the letter S (Set) change a setting and commands beginning with an R (Read) read settings or status.
