Teun & Katrien: Rain sensor

Teun & Katrien both have a rain sensor. These are 2 metal plates. As soon as it starts to rain, water gets between the plates, causing them to conduct. When that happens, the robot knows it's raining and returns to the charging station. It then waits until the rain on the metal plates has dried and then continues mowing. If you have set a working time for the robot, that time pauses and the schedule resumes when the rain has stopped. So it is possible that the robot finishes later if it rains.

The robot does not react to wet grass. But even with drizzle, the robot may not react. Only when water gets between the metal plates does the robot stop mowing and return to the charging station.

Doesn't it continue? Then check what is on the robot. When it rains, you will get this message:

This means that the robot is delayed by 70 minutes because it is raining, this is so that the robot is not damaged while mowing in the rain. The robot resumes its route as soon as the rain has dried from the rain sensor. This can take up to 3 hours.

If you want to turn the rain sensor on/off, you can do so in the following way:
