Thanks for making these videos. They are very informative. Im about to finally buy an auto mower because the price dropped by $400 😮. Maybe because they're trying to get rid of the wire models and push the GPS EPOS models.
awsome most likely that's the case..more Nera EPOS modles hitting the market slowly in different country's.. but not every install will suit wire free or be as cost effective as wire so a deal on a wire version can be good.
I have a Gardena smart SILENO life 1500 and it has only 1G connector on the charging station but i would need 2G wires. Can i connect both wires together on one connector in the charging station?
Hi, I recently purchased a 430x automower. My lawn is divided onto 2 sections and it is necessary to cross the driveway. When installing it the wires across the driveway were lai 1400mm apart with a guidewire in between approx 350mm from one of the wires. The problem is that the lawnmower thinks my driveway is part of the lawn and spends minutes on the driveway. I asked my installer to move the wires to about 700mm apart with the guidewire down the middle so the mower would recognise it as a passage. He said he would have to switch off the GPS function for this to work. I am wondering what my best option is and is it necessary to switch off the GPS to create the passage effect.
@Tom-mi4mi hi..sorry missed this sooner...700mm wide with guide threw center will work well I often do that width - and no need to turn of gps assisted navigation..unit will still follow guide as as per when it chooses to covering all lawn spaces as long as schedule is correct for lawn complexity and size.
Hi, I have a husqvarna 310 and my charging station only have a g1 connection for the guide wire. But my garden has 2 places thats quite challenging. Can I put the guide wire in a U shape in one part of the garden and then let it go back the same way into the charging station? How close can the guide wire be to itself and can it cross itself?
If you go to close guide will cancel out as you are overlaping the - & + signal will confuse ur 310,also depending on ur corridor width which you want as wide as possible,I would avoid a U shape and not run guide into that area you don't want a guide to be closer than 6m on a U shape if you had to..but I would avoid guide in that area and not do that,,running threw most ur lawn,,random pattern and following boundary home will assist lawn coverage.
Would adding a secondary area by splicing into the boundary wire, then create another boundary and tap back into the boundary at a downstream location function? It seems to me, that all current is flowing in the same direction and should work well.
I should add that this would create a box formed by adding wire on 3 sides only and the 4th side would be formed by the original boundary as a common element. This would form a type of grid separated by a single wire isolating the different areas. Please advise. I am trying to save labor in several areas, not wire.
@@santobrocato8012 I'm not 100% sure on what you are trying to do hard without a picture...but a secondary area would bot work in that way..the in and out wire needs to come out from the boundary creating a compleat loop then closing up and continuing all without need of joins...the outside of the main area can not work as a boundary as on the outsidebis a negative magnetic feild and in the inside is a positive so what you described would cours the mower to drive into an out of loop situation
yes you can temporarily run without a guide but when you do add guide and you should ensure you do a "guide calibration " - watch my finding charge station settings to get the best search % and esyer return to charge station

hi - No most likly you will confuse the mower,, rather set the charge station to one side of your lawn and wrap the guide wire right around the lawn,

Can I temporarily run my mower without a guy wire?
yes you can temporarily run without a guide but when you do add guide and you should ensure you do a "guide calibration " - watch my finding charge station settings to get the best search % and esyer return to charge station
