ACQUIRING THE WIRE
Toggle the wire guidance switch ON as you near a
guided aisle. Approach the wire at an angle of 30° or
less. Drive slowly and center the truck over the wire.
When you hear a "beep" and the red light turns off, the
truck takes control of steering. Start slowly.
WHEN DRIVING ON THE WIRE
• Always watch where you're going. Make sure your
path is clear.
• Always be alert for "beeps" from the alarm, messages
on the display, or indicator lights that signal changes
in guidance status.
• Start slowly after changing direction of travel. Be
sure the truck is following the wire.
AUTOMATIC SLOW DOWN
While traveling on guidance, your truck may slow
down automatically for certain conditions.
• Low signal strength from the wire.
• Truck deviates slightly from the wire.
• End of Aisle Control (optional) is activated.
AUTOMATIC STOP
Your truck may stop automatically for certain
conditions.
• Signal strength from the wire is lost or is too low.
• Acquiring the wire at an angle greater than 30°.
• Truck deviates too far from the wire.
• End of Aisle Control (optional) is activated.
FOR MANUAL STEERING
Take control of the steering handle, toggle the
guidance switch OFF.
Note:
Whenever guidance is OFF, the red light on the
display will be on, and the alarm will "beep" to remind
you that you are in manual steering.
When the truck senses a guidance wire, the red light
will flash and the "beeping" will speed up, to notify
you that the truck senses a wire. To acquire the wire,
see page 31.
WIRE GUIDANCE SENSING OPTION
Wire Guidance Sensing reminds you to turn ON the
wire guidance switch.
With this feature, your truck will “beep” while driving
in manual steer mode on an active guidance wire.
Your company can program your truck to travel at a
slow speed or slow to a stop while “beeping.”
