Build Instructions
Before you start, take a look at the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). The components go in the side with the writing on
and the solder goes on the side with the tracks and silver pads.
Start with the three resistors. The text on the PCB shows where R1, R2 etc go. Ensure that you put the
resistors in the right place.

Solder the Integrated Circuit (IC) holder into IC1. When putting this into the board, be sure to get it
the right way around. The notch on the IC holder should line up with the notch on the lines marked
on the PCB.
Solder the programming connector into the board where it is labelled ‘PROG’.
The battery clip should be soldered into the ‘POWER’ terminal. First start by feeding the wire
through the strain relief hole (feed from the solder side). The red wire must go to the ‘+’ terminal
(also marked ‘red’) and the black wire must go to the ‘–’ terminal (also marked ‘black’).
The buzzer should be soldered into the ‘SOUNDER’ terminal. First start by feeding the wire through
the strain relief hole (feed from the solder side). The red wire must go to the ‘+’ terminal (also
marked ‘red’) and the black wire must go to the ‘–’ terminal (also marked ‘black’).
Cut and strip two pieces of wire to the required length for connecting to the switch. Solder the end
of one piece of wire to the terminal of the switch labelled ‘COM’ (this is printed on the plastic body
of the switch). Then solder one end of the other piece of wire to the terminal of the switch labelled
‘NO’. Now solder the other ends of the wires to the terminals labelled ‘INPUT1’ on the PCB. It does
not matter which wire goes to which terminal on the PCB.
The IC can be put into the holder, ensuring that the notch on the chip lines up with the notch on the holder.
