Manual
Corrections and Clarifications for Electronics Kits
Manual
1-120, Project 14-16:
The circuit
drawing has a error:
The connect point B should
be the point C and the point C should be the B.
Manual
1-120, Project 5: In this project, the
bulb will not be bright because it acts as a resistor
for the motor protection. Otherwise, the motor may
burned out with too much power. If you put the Proj 5 in
a dark place, you will see the bulb with a little light
because the motor shares the current.
To avoid damage of the
components, please be aware as following:
-
Follow
the instruction on manual.
-
Please
press on the snap button or plastic pad only, not
the components.
-
Please do
not put any parts on the battery pad (it will cause
circuit short and damaged the parts and battery).
Please read the "Notice" on the 1st page of the
manual.
-
Please do
not use 2 battery holders (6V, 4 batteries) for a
single motor or single bulb circuit, which may
damage the motor or bulb.
Motor Related Projects:
For For safe play, the speed of the mini DC motor in
this kit is designed to turn slowly. Turn on the
switch for motor without the fan blade to see if it
works. The adult supervision for motor projects is
