Kitos instrukcijos

  • Cut 3 pieces of electrical cable: one 35 cm, one 25 cm and one 10 cm in length.
  • On both the 35 cm and 25 cm long cables, strip 3 cm of isolation from one and 1 cm from the other end. On the 10 cm long cable, strip 1 cm of isolation from both ends.
   
  • Use electrical tape to connect one end of the 10 cm cable to the negative leg of the buzzer and connect the other end of the cable to the negative lead of the battery.
  • Use electrical tape to connect the shorter end of the 25 cm long cable to the positive leg of the buzzer.
               
  • Using side cutters, cut two pieces of wire, one 50 cm long and one 20 cm long piece.
 
  • Using pliers, bend the longer wire into a track. Make sure to leave the ends long enough to later push into the polystyrene.
  • Using pliers, bend the shorter piece of wire into a hook. Make sure to leave a hole at the end so you can easily place the hook around the track.
       
  • Twist the longer end of the 25 cm cable around one end of the long wire and twist the long end of the 35 cm cable around the unbent end of the hook.
  • Cover both twisted cables with electrical tape.
                           
  • Using electrical tape, connect the cable, that is attached to the hook, to the positive end of the battery.
  • Test if the connections work by touching the hook to the long piece of wire. If the buzzer makes noise, then there is a connection. If there is no noise, check the connections of the battery, buzzer, and wires.
 
  • Attach the longer piece of wire into the polystyrene.
