4.1 Important Notes for Assembly:

Some components are small and require precise soldering.
Ensure correct polarity for LEDs and other polarized components.
Periksa kembali semua sambungan sebelum mengalirkan daya.
The kit requires 2x 3.7V rechargeable batteries, which are not included. Install them into the battery box after assembly.

5. Petunjuk Pengoperasian

5.1 Initial Power-On and Self-Balancing

After successful assembly and battery installation:

Turn on the battery box switch.
Place the car flat on the ground and turn on the main power switch.
Wait approximately 10 seconds for the car to initialize and achieve self-balancing. The LED1 indicator will light up, signaling it is ready.

5.3 Control Methods: WiFi and IR Remote

The robot car can be controlled using either a mobile device via WiFi or the included infrared remote control.

5.3.1 WiFi Control

To control the car via WiFi:

Connect your mobile device to the WiFi network named "HE048-XXXXXX" (where XXXXXX is the product serial number) with the password "88888888".
Open a mobile browser and enter "10.0.10.1" to access the control interface.
Enter your home WiFi name and password, then click "Set WiFi".
Once the WiFi icon on the interface turns blue, the connection is successful. You can now use the on-screen controls to operate the car.

Kontrol Kecepatan: Buttons 1, 2, 3 control speed (1=slowest, 3=fastest, default is 3).
Penghindaran Rintangan: Buttons 7 (on) and 9 (off, default) toggle obstacle avoidance.
Kontrol Arah: Use the arrow keys for Forward, Backward, Turn Left, Turn Right.
Rotasi: Buttons 0 (Left Rotate in Place) and # (Right Rotate in Place).
Berhenti: The OK button acts as a stop function.

For both control methods, long-press directional buttons for continuous movement and release to stop. Short-press for momentary adjustments.
