When and how to reinstall EPOS™ in an Automower® wire free installation

In a wire free EPOS™ installation, there may be times when you need to adjust your setup - such as relocating the reference station due to changes in your garden layout, or switching between a reference station and EPOS™ via the Husqvarna Cloud*. The Reinstall EPOS™ feature in the Automower® Connect app helps you adapt to these changes. Before starting the reinstall process, make sure that you are within Bluetooth range and successfully connected to the mower via Bluetooth.

*EPOS™ via the Husqvarna Cloud is only available in selected markets.

What are profiles and how many can you create?

Learn how profiles work in Automower® installations:

Profiles allow you to save different configurations for different locations or lawn setups - such as your home, summer house or a lawn area with specific settings.

Each time you reinstall EPOS, a new profile is created automatically. Your previous profiles remain accessible in the profile section in the app.

  • Access your profiles via More > Settings > Manage Profiles.
  • You can store up to 10 profiles in the app.
  • Delete older profiles to make room for new ones.
  • Give each profile a clear name such as “Home,” “Summer House” or “Spring flowers” so it’s easy to identify and switch between them later.
