Abstract

An electronic bordering system for a working tool in which a border cable is placed above, under or on ground or floor, so that it separates an inner area within the border cable from an outer area. The working tool is preferably intended for attendance of ground or floor. A signal generator feeds the border cable with current, whose magnetic field affects at least one sensing unit located on the working tool, so that the sensing unit emits signals to a control unit, which in cooperation with an engine control, or a signal system for a driver, and at least one driving source directs the tool's movement in order to prevent it from remoting from the inner area. The signal generator feeds the border cable with current containing at least two alternating-current components of different frequency, and the components are lying in a known relation of time to each other.
