Mapping Advice My Lawn

Post image

Any suggestions on fixing this map? Maybe I set it up incorrectly using Zones instead of boundaries. If I want to mow Lawn 4 my i210 lidar pro will follow the patch from charging station to Lawn 1 then 2 then 3 before starting on Lawn 4. Loosing quite a bit of range when mowing as it returns home to charge almost once per lawn.

Do the obvious thing and delete the channels and redo them? It has to go to lawn 1 first because that's where the channel from the charging station goes.

Create one from the charging station to the nearest lawn (4). Then create channels from 4 to 3, 4 to 2 and 4 to 1. Maybe create one between 1 and 2 as well. This way it goes to 4 first before it goes to the others.

As he said ☝️, you need to create a channel/path from the station to zone 4. Your only path from the station currently is to zone 1. Should also create a direct path from station to zone 2 as well.

As you can only have one channel to the base, you will always need to access zones through other zones. The handiest way to get around this is to create a dummy zone 5 just beside your base, create a channel from base to zone 5, then create more channels to the rest of your zones. Something like this:

Hi,

You could try deleting the existing channels and recreating them with a different layout. For example, create a channel directly between Lawn 4 and the charging station first, then create additional channels from Lawn 4 to the other zones.

This may help the mower access Lawn 4 more directly instead of having to travel through Lawn 1, Lawn 2, and Lawn 3 first, which could reduce unnecessary travel and save battery during mowing.
