If you are a student, and any parts are missing or damaged, please see instructor or bookstore. If you purchased this roulette kit from a distributor, catalog, etc., please contact Elenco (address/phone/e-mail is at the back of this manual) for additional assistance, if needed. DO NOT contact your place of purchase as they will not be able to help you. - Page 3 IDENTIFYING RESISTOR VALUES Use the following information as a guide in properly identifying the value of resistors. BAND 1 1st Digit Color Digit Black Brown Orange Yellow Green Blue Violet Gray White IDENTIFYING CAPACITOR VALUES Capacitors will be identified by their capacitance value in pF (picofarads), nF (nanofarads), or µF (microfarads). Most capacitors will have their actual value printed on them.
- Page 4 INTRODUCTION Electronic Roulette (roo-let) replaces the ivory ball with a circuit of flashing light emitting diodes (LED’s). Red LED’s are arranged in a circle next to a black or red number and two green LED’s are positioned next to “0” and “00”. When the switch is pushed, the LED’s light one after another, in a sequence that represents the movement of the ivory ball.
- Page 5 THE PULSE GENERATOR Assume that part of the sand from the “Timer Glass” in Figure 2 is poured into a bucket as shown in Figure 3a. When the bucket has enough sand, it will flip and dump as shown in Figure 3b. Each time it flips, it closes switch X2, sending the battery voltage to the Ring Counter and it strikes the “Drum”...
- Page 6 THE SOUND CIRCUIT In the sound generator circuit, a 500Hz oscillator is always running. This oscillator is represented by the spinning wheel in Figure 4a. No sound is heard because the spinning wheel is not hitting the drum. When the bucket in Figure 3 dumps sand, the lever arm pushes the spinning wheel against the stop and the small balls on the spinning wheel hit the drum, producing a high frequency sound (Figure 4b).
- Page 7 CONSTRUCTION Introduction The most important factor in assembling your AK-300 Electronic Roulette Kit is good soldering techniques. Using the proper soldering iron is of prime importance. A small pencil type soldering iron of 25 - 40 watts is recommended. The tip of the iron must be kept clean at all times and well tinned.

Page 11: Component Check
COMPONENT CHECK Make sure that all components have been mounted in their correct places. Make sure that the LED’s have been installed correctly. The flat side of the LED’s should be in the same direction as shown on the top legend. Make sure that diodes D39 - D43 have not been installed backwards. - Page 12 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CHART A Strategies Explanation A) Single Straight Chips on a number from 1-36 including 0 and 00.
