Radius Settings

Radius settings control how far an RS-ItemMagnet can detect and collect dropped items.

---

What Is Radius?

The collection radius determines the area around the ItemMagnet where dropped items can be detected.

Items outside the configured radius will be ignored.

---

Increasing Radius

Larger radii allow the machine to collect items from a wider area.

Benefits:

• Larger collection area
• Fewer machines required
• Better coverage for large farms

---

Decreasing Radius

Smaller radii restrict collection to nearby items.

Benefits:

• More precise collection
• Better separation between machines
• Easier farm specialization

---

Choosing the Right Radius

Small Farms:

• Small Radius

Large Farms:

• Medium to Large Radius

Industrial Automation Systems:

• Use the smallest radius necessary for predictable routing.

Troubleshooting

If items are not being collected:

• Verify the item is inside the configured radius
• Verify filters allow the item
• Verify the target container has available space
