2.3. Програм суулгах
Download the dedicated Apitor app from your device's app store. This app is essential for controlling and programming your robot. Ensure your device meets the minimum system requirements for the app.
3. Роботоо ажиллуулах
Once your robot is assembled and the app is installed, you can begin interacting with it.
3.1. Апп-д холбогдож байна
Turn on your robot's main control unit. Open the Apitor app on your smart device and follow the on-screen prompts to connect via Bluetooth. A successful connection will be indicated by a specific light pattern on the control unit.
3.2. Хяналтын горимууд
The robot supports three primary control modes:
- Хос хөдөлгүүрийн удирдлага: Control both motors independently for complex movements.
- Single Motor Control: Control one motor at a time for precise actions.
- Гироскопын удирдлага: Utilize your device's gyroscope to control the robot's movement by tilting your device.

4. Засвар үйлчилгээ
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Apitor robot kit.
4.1. Цэвэрлэгээ
The building blocks and main control unit are made of safe and harmless ABS plastic. To clean, gently wipe components with a dry or slightly damp даавуу. Хуванцарыг гэмтээж болзошгүй тул химийн хатуу бодис, зүлгүүрийн материал ашиглахаас зайлсхий.
4.2. Хадгалах
When not in use, store the kit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Disassemble complex models for easier storage and to prevent stress on the connections. Remove batteries from the main control unit if storing for extended periods to prevent leakage.
5. Алдаа засах
If you encounter issues with your Apitor robot kit, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Робот асахгүй байна:
- Check if the batteries are correctly installed and fully charged. Replace if necessary.
- Ensure the power switch on the main control unit is in the "On" position.
- Bluetooth-ээр холбогдох боломжгүй:
- Ухаалаг төхөөрөмж дээрээ Bluetooth идэвхжсэн эсэхийг шалгаарай.
- Make sure the robot is powered on and within range (typically 10 meters or 30 feet).
- Close and reopen the Apitor app.
- Restart both your smart device and the robot's control unit.
- Робот тушаалуудад хариу өгөхгүй байна:
- Verify that the robot is successfully connected to the app.
- Check your programming code in the app for any errors or incorrect block sequences.
- Ensure motors and sensors are securely connected to the main control unit.
- Sensors Not Functioning Correctly:
- Мэдрэгч цэвэрхэн, бөглөрөлгүй байгаа эсэхийг шалгаарай.
- Check the sensor's connection to the main control unit.
- Review the programming related to the specific sensor in the app.
