iRobot Roomba 500 and 600 Series Testing & Diagnostics
If you own a Roomba 500 Series Vacuum robot (including 600 series models), chances are you've encountered a problem with it at one time or another. In this video I show you various testing and diagnostics modes to isolate what problem you may be having with your own Roomba.
A couple of warnings though!
1. When testing, the safety features are disabled. So it will not know if there is a cliff or if it is against a wall, etc.
2. Be careful not to inadvertently change the behavior of your robot. Certain options can change the operation/behavior.
3. MOST IMPORTANTLY, DO NOT PERFORM ANY OF THESE OPERATIONS IF YOUR ROBOT IS CURRENTLY UNDER WARRANTY! When running tests, the data is stored in the Roomba's black-box (a data logger).
There are four distinct modes/options:
Diagnostics/Testing: This is the one many will want to use. It tests all the components of the Roomba. It can either run automatically in AUTO-ADVANCE Mode (Hold "CLEAN" and "DOCK", press "SPOT" 3 times) or you can choose the particular test by running in MANUAL-ADVANCE Mode (Hold "CLEAN" and "DOCK", press "SPOT" 6 times).
Mobility Testing: Many will not be able to perform this series of tests as you need a specially built platform for the robot to operate on. It is intended to test the robot's operation on soft/hard floors and the robot's movement. Can be run in AUTO-ADVANCE Mode (Hold "CLEAN" and "DOCK", press "SPOT" 9 times) or MANUAL-ADVANCE Mode (Hold "CLEAN" and "DOCK", press "SPOT" 12 times)
Software Date/Version: If you're curious about the date and version of the software your Roomba has, simply hold "CLEAN" and "SPOT" and press "DOCK" 6 times.
Real-Time Sensor Feedback: This feature lets you monitor a particular set of sensors while the Roomba is cleaning. You can monitor in real-time items such as the light touch sensors, the spin brush encoder, the IR receivers, etc. Simply hold "CLEAN" and "SPOT" and press "DOCK" 3 times. Use "SPOT" and "DOCK" to choose which sensor to monitor.
