Linking The Robotic Mower And Docking Station - Viking MI 422 Manuel D'utilisation

9.8 Linking the robotic mower and
docking station
The robotic mower can only be
operated if it correctly receives the
wire signal emitted by the docking
station. ( 10.16)
Checking the wire signal may take several
minutes. The red STOP button on top of
the machine terminates the link, the
previous installation assistant step is
called up.
Normal reception
Wire signal OK:
The text "Wire signal OK"
appears on the display. The
robotic mower and the docking
station are correctly linked.

Continue initial installation by
pressing the OK button.
Interrupted reception
The robotic mower receives no
wire signal:
The text "No wire signal"
appears on the display.
The robotic mower receives a
faulty wire signal:
The text "Check wire signal"
appears on the display.
The robotic mower receives a
reversed-polarity wire signal:
The text "Connections swapped
or iMow outside" appears on the
display.
Possible cause:
– Temporary malfunction
– The robotic mower is not docked
– Perimeter wire has been connected
incorrectly (reversed polarity).
– Docking station is switched off or not
connected to mains supply.
– Faulty plug connections
– A coiled power cable in the vicinity of
the docking station
– Excessively long perimeter wire ends
– Perimeter wire break
– Extraneous signals such as a mobile
phone or the signal from another
docking station
– Live underground cables, reinforced
concrete or disruptive metals in the
ground under the docking station.
– Maximum length of the perimeter wire
exceeded ( 11.1)
Remedy:
– Repeat linking without other corrective
action
– Docking the robotic mower (
– Connect the perimeter wire ends
correctly ( 9.7)
– Check the docking station mains
connection, roll out the power cable in
the vicinity of the docking station, do not
set down coiled
– Check the perimeter wire plug
connections, cut off excessively long
perimeter wire ends ( 9.7)
– Check the LED indicator on the docking
station ( 12.1)
– Repair the wire break
– Switch off mobile phones or nearby
docking stations
– Change position of the docking station
or remove interference sources under
the docking station
– Use perimeter wire with larger cross
section (special accessory)
Following the appropriate corrective
action, repeat linkage by pressing
the OK button.
If the measures described above do
not result in a correct wire signal
then contact a VIKING specialist
dealer.
