Title: Program time
Post by: Chiefrodgers on August 04, 2014, 02:22:08 PM
I programmed my Lawnbott 3510 to come on at 0630-0930 worked fine for a week but quite. If I hit charge on my remote control it will mow, but on the programmed time. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance for any replies.

Need more details.  What do you mean by "quit"?   How old is your robot?

Did she buy it from an authorized dealer or from somewhere else?

Kathy thank you so much for all your help. Jaws is still docked but will be patient to see when he might strike again.

I would reprogram from start to finish making sure I didn't mis-type.  Also check that everything is nice and tight... no screws or connectors loose.  Then when it's time for mowing take notes and let us know what happens.  That way one of us may be able to help you.  From the above responses all I see are questions.

cheers, Toolbelt

If I understand correctly the mower isn't leaving the charger at the programmed time.  As others have suggested check the times you have scheduled as well as check to make sure the days of the week are toggled on. If this all correct and  the mower still won't leave the charging station on its own, but you can get it to leave by pressing the charge button on the mower then you may have a bad alarm board. I had a similar problem years ago and if I recall correctly the alarm board was faulty.

I think the "problem" could be that the robot thinks mowing is completed and is taking a rest in the base.  Turn off "Auto Setup" and see if the issue disappears.  If all is ok, he will always come out on time when Auto Setup is off.  Then turn Auto Setup back on.  What happens now?  If he stays in with Auto Setup turned on, but the lawn is not completely mowed, then increase the amount of time he mows per day and see if it works better.  Auto Setup functions best with large mowing windows.

Hope this helps!
