Turn on the Main Switch. Whenever a piano key is played an LED will light up. Each set of four keys is grouped with an LED and their
brightness can be adjusted by turning the knob on the Variable Resistor.
Slide on the Main Switch. Whenever a piano key is played an LED will light up. Each group of four keys is grouped with an LED. The
volume can be adjusted by turning the knob on the Variable Resistor.
Each of the three resistors on the board has a code printed on it to show its
resistance value. Each color band represents a number. Read it left to right with
the silver or gold band last. Those indicate tolerance. Use the chart at right to see
the “secret” code.
The 1KΩ resistor’s bands are: Brown•Black•Red•Gold or
1 0 (x) 100Ω ±5%
10 x 100 = 1,000 which can be written as 1K
Resistors can also have 3, 5 or 6 bands.
