Assembly Manual Anita Big Digit Clock
Foreword
Dear Clock friend,
Thank you very much for purchasing this Anita Clock kit with 20 cm (8“) display height.
Please do not "cobble" the kit together in record time, but take a quiet evening and a few hours to
build.
You should also already own the necessary equipment and knowledge to be able to build such a
high-quality kit without complications. The resulting success will definitely reward you for your effort
and stamina.
The manual assumes that you have advanced electronic skills, e.g. you should know that ICs, diodes
and electrolytic capacitors are polarized components and may not be soldered in reverse polarity.
Likewise you are aware that semiconductors are electrostatically sensitive components and may
only be stored in antistatic containers and should be touched on all three components legs together.
Also you should not be electrostathic „charged“.
Furthermore, a temperature-controlled soldering station with max. 1 mm wide tip and fine electronic
solder as well as appropriate electronic tools such as multimeter, TX10 and PH2 screwdrivers,
side cutters, tweezers, magnifying glass etc. is required.
Please Note
Follow the steps in this manual in the order listed and the tips and notes. These are all
tested and approved and allow you a trouble-free assembly.
Important Safety Instructions
When assembling, powering on or during measurements and repairs, caution is required!
Assembing the circuit takes place at your own risk. The functionality can not be guaranteed, nor the
suitability for certain purposes. The user himself has to check it and is responsible for this suitability.
No liability can be accepted for damage (personal injury or property damage) of any kind arising
during or as a result of the assembly or operation, especially not for damages arising from a lack of
electronic skills.
The clock kit may only be operated in dry indoor enviroments.
The person who has completed a kit or has made an assembled board ready by extension or
enclosure installation, is according to VDE 0869 a manufacturer and is obliged to provide all
accompanying documents with the transfer of the device and also give his name and address.
Devices that are finalized from kits are safety-related considered as an industrially manufactured
product.
And now, dear lady, dear sir - fire up your soldering station ...
