Re: Samsung VC-RA84V English User manual?

ok im back again

finally got the english manual, but still having problems with programming the ra84v to do a daily cleaning

on page 31 in the english manual http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/conte ... 17A_EN.pdf

it says that i should press the daily programming button 3 times, and confirm that the current time is correct, and then if i press the button again, i should input the hour and minute of when to start the daily operation

but the first time i press the button, it wants me to input the hour and next time the minut, and when i press the button the third time, it just turns on the CLOCK ICON, and nothing more happens, at this time, i think the robot will start at 09.00 in the morning, but the manual says that the DAILY ICON should turn on, meaning that the robot would start at 09.00 every day?

i cant get it to enable the DAILY function, only the RESERVED CLEANING

what am i missing?, or is my robot defective or missing the DAILY program?

SIncerely

Hi blackbox100,

It is quite different than in Navibot SR8855 (another buttons on remote control). For the first time and each time when there is no power in socket (failure of the grid or sth) you have to set the clock.


On p.20 they show how to set the clock. Press the "Clock" button on remote control ONCE, then the right/left "arrow" choosing the hour (am (upper) or pm (lower) depending on the current time). Press again "Clock" and choose minute by pressing on the right/left "arrow". You have to confirm the setting, by pressing the "Clock" once. You set the clock :)


On p.30 they show how to set the "delay start", but WARNING: it is quite different delay start than in VC-RE52V or SR8845. In VC-RA84V if we want to set delay start or daily schedule, we have to set the clock before. Then, e.g. if we have 7:00AM we delay the start for 9:30AM. In VC-RA52V or SR8845 we just set the timer for e.g. 3 hours, and it starting up its program just 3hr from the time when we set it. There is no possibility to set the minute.

So press the "daily schedule/delay start" button on the remote control TWICE, then set the hour by pressing the left/right "arrow". Press "daily schedule/delay start" again and set the minute (left/right "arrow"). Press "daily schedule/delay start" to confirm and press the button which is located between the left and right "arrow" on remote control. You set the "Delay start".


On p.31 they show how to set the "Daily schedule". For example, we want to schedule it for 9:30AM every day. Press the "daily schedule/delay start" button on the remote control THREE TIMES and ONCE again. Set the hour by pressing the left/right "arrow". Confirm by pressing the "daily schedule/delay start" button. Set the minute by pressing the left/right "arrow" and confirm by pressing on "daily schedule/delay start" button. Now, press THREE TIMES "daily schedule/delay start" button and press the button which is located between the left and right "arrow" on remote control. You set the "Daily schedule".

I hope it help you. If you have more questions, just ask.

hello piokrza

first of all thanks for the reply, you seem to be a very potent user of this forum, thanks for that

ok, here is what i have tried

i get the thing of setting the time, as describes on page 20, and the time sets fine

i´m not interested in the DELAY START as describes in page 30, but only in the daily schedule as describes on page 31

here is what happens when i try to program it as describes on p.31

the manual says, to press the "daily schedule/delay start" button 3 times, and then ONCE, but allready here the trouble begins

the first time i press the button, it show current time, the second time i press the button the "hour" indicator flashes, and i can press the left or right button the change the hour, the 3 third i press the button i can set the minutes, and the 4 time the DELAY START (CLOCK SYMBOL) lights up, and nothing more happens, the tango will now start to perform at the set time, but i cannot get it into daily mode?

if i do it your way, and press the button 3 times and then once, it immidiatly begins to vacuum, since it thinks that i just programmes to do a delay start at the current time?

i have confirmed that the label in the bottom says VC-RA84V so it must be the right model, and should have daily schedule ability?

perhaps i should record a video of how it acts, but im not shure were to post it for you to see?, do you have a video of how you program yours?

sincerely Carsten Larsen

@blackbox100

Sorry but it was my mistake. I read the manual in the wrong way. You have to press the "daily schedule/delay start" button for 3 seconds and then, press short, once again. Now you can set the hour/minute.

EDIT: "Now, press for three seconds "daily schedule/delay start" button and press the button which is located between the left and right "arrow" on remote control." - it is for cancelling the settings.
