Opretholdelse
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Apitor Robot X, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Rensning: Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe down the blocks and electronic components. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions directly on electronic parts.
- Opbevaring: Store the kit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep all blocks and components organized in the sorting tray or original packaging to prevent loss.
- Batteripleje: Remove AA batteries (not included) from the control unit if the robot will not be used for an extended period to prevent leakage and corrosion.
Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues with your Apitor Robot X, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Robotten tænder ikke. | Batterierne er døde eller isat forkert. | Replace with fresh AA batteries (3 required). Ensure correct polarity. |
| Robot does not respond to app control. | Bluetooth connection issue; App is outdated; Robot is out of range. | Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and the robot. Restart the app and robot. Move closer to the robot. Check for app updates. |
| Robot movements are erratic or slow. | Low battery power; Loose connections; Obstruction in gears. | Replace batteries. Check all cable connections between modules and sensors. Inspect gears for any debris. |
| Coding blocks in app do not execute correctly. | Incorrect code sequence; Sensor malfunction. | Review your graphical code sequence carefully. Test individual sensor functions within the app if available. |
