Docking station connection pads
Five contact pads are situated below the robot and can be used to
connect the Robot to a docking station. The pads are placed
symmetrically to ensure a correct connection even if the Robot goes
backwards on the docking station. The main purpose of these
contacts is to charge the embedded battery (works only with Li-Pol
Battery). Apply +15V between VIN and GND (max 18.0V) to perform
the charge. The VIN signal is the same as the external power supply
connector and will be available on the terminal blocks (+15V).
Communication with the outside is done via I
2
C external bus (level is
0 to +3.3V, same as the one available on the terminal blocks). Use
level adapter if needed.

Never apply more than 18.0VDC between the VIN & GND
contacts.
