5 SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Dingo is a fast moving robotic platform. Please read the following notices carefully.

Dingo is a rugged and high-performance vehicle. For the safety of yourself and others, always conduct initial experi-

ments and software development with the vehicle raised off the ground. Place a wooden crate, a set of sawhorses, a

sturdy storage tub, or any other solid flat structure having a height greater than 6 inches under Dingo to keep the wheels

clear of the ground ("up on blocks").

When starting out, favor slower wheel speeds. Dingo's control loops can accurately maintain velocities as low as 0.1

m/s. Operating at such speeds will give you more time to react if things don't go quite as you expect.

The motor stop button

stop button once; you should see that the green LED by the motor stop button is flashing and that all four corner LEDs

are flashing red. To disengage Stop Mode, press the motor stop button again; all LEDs should return to their original

values.

When in Stop Mode, the Dingo will not drive. The commands received while in Stop Mode are not buffered; Dingo will

always act on the latest commands received. This means that if the commands are stopped before the motor stop

button is pressed to disengage Stop Mode, the Dingo will not move. If the commands are continued, Dingo will move

at the speed commanded once the motor stop button is pressed to disengage Stop Mode.

Ensure that the motor stop button is accessible at all times. Avoid mounting payloads that extend over the rear of Dingo

and would block access to the motor stop button.

Note that the Dingo MCU board does provide a breakout to allow an external stop button/switch to be integrated by the

end user, which could be used to engage/disengage Stop Mode. Please inquire with Clearpath Robotics for details on

adding an external stop button/switch. See Contact on page 20 for contact information.

Dingo is powered by batteries capable of delivering over 2000W for short durations. This gives Dingo's motors their

great performance; however, it is also enough power to cause severe bodily harm. Always use caution when operating

Dingo to avoid personal injury or property damage. To ensure safety, please observe the following precautions:

• Do not tamper with the battery terminals or wiring.

• Do not tamper with the fuses, except to check and change the fuses.

• Always replace fuses with the same type and rating to ensure continued protection against risk of fires.

• Consult Clearpath Robotics support if you need to service the batteries.
