Cyfarwyddiadau Cymanfa
The Mech 5 robot requires assembly. Follow the detailed instructions provided in the included physical manual for step-by-step guidance. The assembly process involves cutting parts from frames and securing them with screws.
- Paratoi: Lay out all parts and identify them according to the manual's diagrams. Have necessary tools (diagonal cutters, small screwdriver, sandpaper) ready.
- Tynnu Rhan: Carefully cut each part from its plastic frame. Use sandpaper to smooth any rough edges or "barbs" to ensure gears and moving parts operate smoothly.
- Cynulliad Strwythurol: Follow the manual's sequence to build the robot's main body, chassis, and movable components. Pay close attention to gear placement and alignment.
- Motor and Battery Installation: Install the motor as directed. Insert 2 AAA batteries into the battery compartment, ensuring correct polarity.
- Cynulliad atodiad: Assemble the desired attachment (e.g., soccer-bot, forklift-bot, drawing-bot) according to the manual.
Awgrym: Patience is key during assembly. Double-check each step to ensure proper function. If parts are stiff, ensure all excess plastic has been removed.
Cyfarwyddiadau Gweithredu
The Mech 5 robot is programmed using a mechanical coding wheel. This allows for various movements and actions without the need for a computer or app.
1. Understanding the Coding Wheel

Delwedd: Manwl view of the mechanical coding wheel, showing how coding buttons snap into place.
The coding wheel has slots where coding buttons are inserted. Each button corresponds to a specific command (e.g., forward, backward, turn, action). The sequence of these buttons dictates the robot's program.

2. Symudiadau Sylfaenol
- Ymlaen / Yn ôl: Insert coding buttons that instruct the robot to move straight.
- Cylchdro 360°: Use specific coding buttons to make the robot rotate in place.
- Troi: Combine forward/backward movements with rotation commands to execute turns.

3. Performing Tasks with Attachments
The Mech 5 can perform various tasks by changing its attachments and programming the coding wheel accordingly.
- Soccer-Bot: Attach the kicking mechanism. Program the robot to move towards a ball and execute a kick command.
