Description
The small device attaches to a designated point on the droid’s chassis and intercepts motor-control impulses. An authorized caller can issue simple movement commands, stop the droid, or shut it down without erasing memory. Correct placement is essential, and security personnel inspect controlled droids for tampering before duty or transfer.
