Programming Your Bee-Bot - TTS Bee-Bot User Manual

Programming Your Bee-Bot

Your Bee-Bot has been designed as a simple floor robot.
After initial switch-on, the sequence memory is cleared, pressing <Go> at this point will
simply cause a sound to be played and no motion to occur.
The user can press a sequence of commands, which are stored in the sequence
memory. A maximum of 200 commands can be stored; each command being either
one forward/backward movement, left/right turn, or a pause.
¥ Each forward or backward command causes the unit to move approx. 150mm in the
required direction.
¥ Each turn command causes the unit to rotate 90
¥ A pause command causes the unit to pause for 1 second.
¥ When the <Go> button is pressed, the unit will execute all the commands stored in
order with a short pause between each command.
¥ When the command sequence completes, the unit will stop and play a sound. (The
sound can be turned on/off using the switch on the underside).
¥ Pressing <Go > whilst a sequence is running will stop the sequence.
Bee-Bot Interaction
¥ To enable the Bee-Bot interaction, ensure all switches on the base are in the 'ON'
position. Bee-Bot will recognise another Bee-Bot or Blue-Bot when passing by within
a distance of approximately 25cm, environmental conditions such as sunlight and
varying temperature can affect this range by +/-10cm. When the sensor is activated
Bee-Bot will play a default sound depending on which bot has been detected. The
sound will activate every 5 seconds.
¥ The user can choose to record their own voice on the sensor, so instead of the pre-
recorded sound playing when it senses another Bot, it will play the user's recorded
sound. To do this press and hold the Go button for 2 seconds until a single beep is
heard and record your sound. When the double beep is heard the record time has
ended. To clear this function press and hold the clear button for 2 seconds until the
double beep is heard.
¥ To turn this function off move the sensor switch on the base to the 'OFF' position.
