24: Infrared Obstacle Detection Fault

Understanding and Resolving Infrared Obstacle Detection System Issues

This pause reason indicates a problem with the tractor's infrared obstacle detection system. This system is crucial for detecting obstacles in the tractor's path and preventing collisions. Pauses due to this reason can range from temporary states during reconfiguration to critical hardware errors requiring immediate attention.

Severity

• Low Severity:
  • Navigation paused: Infrared obstacle detection system was being reconfigured.
  • Navigation paused: Infrared obstacle detection system reported an incorrect state for operation to vOS.
• Medium Severity:
  • Navigation paused: Steward™ detected a hardware error with the infrared obstacle detection system. Contact your dealer.

• High Severity:
  
  • Navigation paused: Error detected in the infrared obstacle detection system. Error codes: [error]. Contact support.
  • Navigation paused: Status of the vOS infrared obstacle detection system was unknown. Contact support.

Troubleshooting

1. Restart the Device: A device restart can sometimes clear temporary software glitches.
2. Check connections (if applicable): If the error message points to a specific external sensor or component, check its physical connections for looseness or damage.
3. Check sensor cleanliness: Ensure the infrared sensors are clean and free from dirt, dust, or obstructions.
4. Contact Support: If the deviations persist, or if the deviation is large and the cause is unknown, contact our support team for assistance.
