Operation Panel

Open Operation in the PathLab sidebar for a concise view of how the fleet's operation is going and what needs your attention. This panel is designed for day-to-day supervision rather than detailed configuration.

Operation summary

The operation card shows its current state, mission progress, and counts of active, idle, and waiting robots. Depending on the state and your permissions, you can:

  • Start or Resume the operation.
  • Stop the operation without clearing its progress.
  • Stop & Reset or Reset to clear step runtime progress. PathLab asks for confirmation first.
  • Schedule... a start, stop, or restart command.
  • Abort Missions after the operation has stopped, which aborts missions that are still active without otherwise changing the operation.

The panel also highlights actions that cannot be completed automatically:

  • Set Spot: step: click the button, then click the map to place the requested work location.
  • Finish step ยท robot: release a robot that is waiting for operator approval before it continues.

Caution. Resetting clears operation step progress. Aborting missions stops active robot work. Confirm that the site is in a safe state before using either control.

Attention sections

Below the operation card, the panel brings together three short lists:

  • Active Faults: current minor, major, and critical robot faults. Informational faults are omitted from this summary. Open Faults for the full fault view.
  • Waiting Robots: online robots in the running operation that are not currently on a mission. Each entry explains what is blocking the robot, such as low battery, an old position fix, a missing action, or a required operator release.
  • Offline Robots: disconnected fleet robots and when each was last seen.

Click a robot name to open its details. Click a robot row to center the map on that robot.
