OverWatch - User - System Override

OverWatch - User - System Override

The OverWatch™ has an override function.
This function will allow free control of the machine for 15 seconds. This function is only available for 15 seconds and can only be used every 60 seconds. To activate the override, the operator must press and release the joystick dead-man trigger 3 times within 2 seconds. When this triple tap occurs, the system will announce “Override Active” and the light will change to orange. When the override times-out, the system will announce “Override Expired”. If the operator tries to enable the override again within 60 seconds, the system will announce “Override Unavailable”. This 60 second time-out is referred to as the ‘override cool down period’.
