Restricted areas are zones that robots are not allowed to enter. There are no routes in such areas.
Waypoint
Waypoint is an alternative point on the map, not connected to any specific area. Waypoint can be used if you're creating a Go to task for the robot and need to choose any location on a map, no matter if it is a part of some area or not.
You can select a Waypoint on the map during task creation:
When all needed fields are ready, click on Add a waypoint;
Then you'll see a window with the floor map;
Click on the map to put a point for the robot on it;
Confirm a waypoint creation, and you'll be moved back to the Create Task form;
Fill in a waypoint name (optional);
Fill in other needed fields and save the task.
Charging Station
Charging station for your device. It can be assigned to a specific robot as a Home Charge Station.
Entry point
Exit point
Origin point
