Thank you, I will be able to test this in the next few days. The grass just won’t grow fast enough at the moment

Hi, sorry, still not tested the resume yet, simply because I’ve been working on a safety monitor when I’ve had the chance. The previous version has still been working sublimely on the recorded path though 
The monitor checks on the communication both ways between AOG and nano, and also picks up the status/guidance flag, geofence, distance off line and checks desired steering angle against actual just in case of a WAS or mechanical steering failure.
A bit over the top maybe, but any one will stop the mower engine when I’m not on it (checked by the seat switch). A n LED strip of WS2801 was an easy way to indicate the status of everything. All ‘greens’ means I can leave the mower!
It’s working well, and being able to have a beer in the sun while watching (while holding a remote stop!) it has been WELL worth the effort!!!
I’m waiting for a secondhand HP T610 thinwire client pc to arrive so that I can hopefully choose, and start the mowing path by remote desktop on my phone, so removing the need for a screen fixed to the mower, as it’s only a small mower.
Thanks again!
Yes, yes, yes. That is great.
On board monitor is useless if no one is on board to see it. I’m leaning to even removing the on board processing. This is the future. Sever gets position, and then sends the drive routine. Currently speed of transmission is the limiting factor, but as technology changes this will be the way to process more than one vehicle in the same field/lawn.

Hi!
Interesting to follow your work. I’m trying to read the geoStop on the arduino but I can’t see any change in the signal from the pgn depending on if I’m inside or outside the border. It’s always zero. Could I have missed some settings that activate it or should it be possible to read it of byte 9 from pgn 239 without any changes in the normal AOG version?
Thanks Albin!
AOG normally does not send geofence stop byte. We hacked it to send in section 8 a 1 or 0 as the boundary breach in the micro version only.
Okay!
Thanks a lot!
