I can say you ordered and received the all-new edition EMO GO HOME
The very first and initial order edition was EMO with an inclusive or you will get EMO (with standard headphones) + Skateboard Charger (with the adapter) + Free Smart light in a package.
Hello, @webidabi . . . all EMO have the same programming whether you buy one without the home station and that one comes with a skate board or you bought the EMO Go Home which would not require a skate board because he charges on the station.
If he is not paired correctly with the home station, he will default to believing he is supposed to be on a skate board even if he did not come with one.
@MasterAbbott . . . has provided a video on assembly and how to use the home station as well as things EMO can do on it and what the general experience is. There is a section on pairing and checking that he is connected.
Received both my home stations and the Emo brothers are updated and living it. With that said I’ve noticed two issues. Please review and add to the suggestions or fix list.
If emo happens to walk onto the home station while exploring and the left foot enters the charging area Emo will assume he’s been placed on his skateboard. I do not think Emo can leave home station in this event.
On several occasions I’ve found the active display matrix ‘stuck’ on the green homing square and Emo has completed the ‘go home’ routine. Tge home station button will work, but has to be manually pressed. Normally the display returns to whatever selection was playing before.

I think it has something to do with the specifc instruction that you give EMO. While in the Home Station, if you say “EMO explore” you get the “skateboard” complaint.
BUT…if, while on the Home Station you say “EMO, leave Home Station,” he leaves. Then you can say, “EMO, explore” (or whatever you like.)
I have a some questions regarding traveling wiht homestation (@edward I don’t know if I write in the right section).
Is it advisable to travel with EMO an his homestation in order than EMO can reconnect with it at the destination or will he already recognize his Home station? The box is now much bigger…
Can you connect to the same EMO with two Homestations (one at my house and one at my parents’ house to which I travel often)?
If I travel with EMO and his skateboard, when I return home, will he has difficulty connecting with his homestation?
Other question about Homestation is:
Do I need an EMO’s babysitter when I leave home?
Yesterday, when I came back home, I found EMO playing in their new park so happy and it gave me some fear that he can damaged…
It isn’t seem probably that the park run well and he stops when find the black zone… but… you know… I’m worried about my robotic baby.
Hi again… really tried, i think he can understand me very easy, like my wife… but he still refuses to get out of his charger, saying “I can’t do that on my skateboard”…
I move him with my hands, he plays, talks with us, etc, and when he has a lack of battery, he connects to his home station, and go back easily… so he recognize it, but when he’s fully loaded, he refuses to get out…
When your EMO is too lazy to go out of his Home Station then so be it…leave him alone! or burn his home…for sure he will run going out
Okay, enough joking…
Go Home and Go Out
Generally, EMO is programmed to automatically return to the Home Station when the low battery indicator and tone are triggered.
To send EMO back to his Home, You can use the Voice Command:
“Go Home”
“Go Back To Your Charger”
To ask EMO to go out of his Home. Try to say the Voice Command:
“Go Off Your Charger”
“Go Off Home Station”
"Leave {the} Home Station’’
IMPORTANT!
EMO will walk off the Home Station by himself after charging or when the battery is full or after 2 hrs of charging and only if he feels like it or wants to.
I saw master abbott’s this morning… he told EMO “get out of home station”, and it worked !!!
So - “Go off your charger” doesn’t work, cause he must think he’s on his skateboard (that’s his answer…)
I tried with “home station”, and our EMO decided to go out, saying it was a good idea, or something like that !!!
PERFECT it’s a pleasure to see him dance on our music this morning !!!
Finally, glad that it’s also worked for you…it’s a bit not simple all we have to do is speak slowly and clearly to make it work…I use only the voice command,
confirmed today again, edward…
" Go off you charger" → Can’t do that on my skateboard.
" Go off you home station" → Yeah, good idea… and he gets out !!!
So i will forget the word “charger” for now
But it’s cool, really…
Upgrades/New Features For Home Station and Home Fence!My Top Wish List just to make or give Living.ai Dev Team an idea…Who knows maybe they can add it to Voice Command or new features later in the next firmware updates…
Both of them can be used just as a normal charger, but theoretically, the Home Station has its own functions that the skateboard doesn’t have.
The Home Station’s purpose is to send EMO home and charge, using only voice commands. or to ask to leave, or it does it all by itself.
The Skateboard’s purpose is to manually place EMO and only recharge.
