In this video we step through the how the resistance of a robot lawn mower bounary wire can affectt he operatin of the robot.
We test differeent resistances to see if the orbot will work in themiddle of the lawn and also on the edges of the lawn.
We also discuss when the worx landroid base station light is green and when it is red and why.

Great video- thanks
Watch for ant nests! My problem was not a bad wire or power, but ants that built a nest in the wiring box on the docking station. After removing the ant nest and cleaning the wiring and devices the system worked correctly.
I have a robot that ran over an electrical extension cord and it gives me the error that there is no boundary wire now. I have another robot that works fine within the same boundary and the resistance is not too much. Is there any hope for this robot? If so, do you have any ideas what I should look at?
The part at 12mns where the robot is crossing the wire was exactly my problem – I was about to scrap the whole thing, but this video helped me find a cut in the wire near where it kept crossing & running into a wire fence
Why is the base light green even when no boundary wire is connected?
Great video thanks for the info
