Where is Robosapien Blue™’s power switch? • The power switch is located on the robot’s back, below the right shoulder blade. • Press once to turn ON. Robosapien Blue™ will awaken with a yawn, a stretch and then say “Uh-huh.” Robosapien Blue™ is now ready for your commands.
How do I access the levels of commands on the Controller? • By using the SELECT button! The Select buttons works just like the CAPS LOCK on a computer keyboard. Every controller button can do at least three different things. Pressing the Select button once (controller displays a green light) activates all the GREEN commands on the remote. Pressing the Select button twice (controller displays an orange light) activates all the ORANGE commands.
What are the RED command buttons for? • The red commands on the upper sections of the controller directly control Robosapien Blue™’s movements (arms and legs). For further information see page 7. • The red commands on the lower section of the controller are used for programming your Robosapien Blue™ - for detailed information see page 13 to 15.
What are the GREEN command buttons for? • The green commands on the upper sections of the controller execute combination actions (Pick Up, Throw). For further information see page 9. • The green commands on the lower section of the controller execute your Programmed sequences - for detailed information see page 13 to 15.
What are the ORANGE command buttons for? • The orange commands on the upper sections of the controller access “attitude actions” (ie.,”High 5”, “Burp”). For further information see page 11. • The orange commands on the lower section of the controller execute three pre-programmed demo sequences - for detailed information see page 12.
