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 40 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.
