First, unpack your robot and all parts from the box and verify that
everything is present. If a part is missing, please contact us immediately
(see front page for contact info)
• Robot • Balls (U.S. Only) • Delta Control Box • 24 V Adopter • Remote

1. Place the robot on top of your table tennis table. Fold apart both
sides of the net at the same time. (#1)
2. Loosen the large Black Knob found on the rear of the Ball Tube. Rotate
the head of the robot and the support legs out into the position seen in
photo (#2).
3. Place the robot on the table as seen on photo (#3) The two supporting
legs are going under the table and the sticker with the name of the robot
is on the top. Connect the cable coming from the head to the serial
connector found on top of the Base unit.
4. Hold the pipe under the head with one hand, loosen the knob and pull
the head upward until the 2nd silver ring on the tube is aligned with the
top of the base unit and then tighten the black knob to hold it in
place. (#4)
Be careful so you don’t put a dent into the tube when tightening the
knob.
5. Standing behind the robot, grip the top points of the net and fold the
net down on both sides until the net fully opens.
Please use the included longest Velcro strip to help secure the robot to
the end of the table. The Velcro strip may protect the robot from being
knocked off the table.

Please note that the Power Pong robots are designed to fit onto 25 mm
(1 in.) thick tops, but the supporting legs are designed with heights
adjusting screws, so it’s adjustable to fit tables with thinner than 25
mm tops. Place the plastic Corner Brackets of the net around the
corners of your table as seen in the Photo (#5,6)
6. Pull a Side Net along the sideline of the table and pull its thick rubber
band over the top of the table’s net. Attach it to the clamp screw that
holds the net onto the table. (Photo #7,8)
NOTE: You may attach the two shortest Velcro strips to the corners of
your table underneath the Corner Brackets to help the brackets stay
down and stabilize the entire net. Ready to use (Photo #9)
8. Connect your control box to the base unit with the thin cable, plug
your Power Supply into the power jack on the side of the Base unit, and
then into a power outlet. (Photo #10)
9. ADJUSTMENT OF HEAD HEIGHT
On most table tennis robots, the height of the head cannot be adjusted.
In contrast, Power Pong Robots offers 4 different heights to better
simulate realistic play. It is quite easy to adjust the head height. From
behind the net, push the top of the net down to reach over it. Grab the
ball tube with one hand and loosen the large black knob with the other
hand. You can then pull the tube up or push it down to adjust head
height. Lock it in place by tightening the Black Knob.
10. POSITION THE HEAD OF THE ROBOT
Loosen the knob and turn the head of the robot if needed to have the
balls delivered close to the centerline and about 16 inches from the end
of the table. If the balls are delivered longer, then please check if the
head of the robot standing straight or bending backward or forward. If
everything looks good, but the balls are still coming longer or shorter
you might need to calibrate.
CALIBRATION
To calibrate your robot, press both trajectory buttons in the same time and hold it down until it
starts. The goal of calibration is to have the balls land around the middle and about 14-16
inches from the end of the table. You may use the trajectory and/or speed buttons to adjust as
needed.
After completing the setup, place 60-100 Power Pong balls into the ball collection tray. Grab
your racket and prepare to return balls from your robot.

FACTORY RESET
Push and hold down the CLEAR button, turn the power on and release the clear button
after about 5 seconds.
CHANGING THE WHEELS
The wheels are very durable and will last for at least 500 hours, but sooner or later
they need to be adjusted or changed. It’s time to adjust when the quality of shots
produced are not as good as before. It’s time to change when the adjustments are no
longer working to your satisfaction.
To adjust the distance between wheels, loosen the
screw shown on the picture, move all the wheels
equally a little closer to give you the same friction
as before. Tighten the screw.
To change the wheels, you need to remove the covers and loosen the screw shown in
photo #2 on the bottom wheel, but the screws shown in photo #3 and #4 also needs
to be removed in order to change the other 2 wheels.

ERROR MANAGEMENT
Potential problems:
1. No power going into the unit – Check if the power adopter is plugged in all the
way. If yes then it could be a bad power adopter or bad circuit board.
2. The feeding motor moves forward and backward – Something blocking the flow
of balls. It could be a bad ball or hair wrapped around the axle and at the base of
the feeding motor.
3. The feeding motor is not moving at all – Check if power going into the unit, if yes
you might need to change the feeding motor.
4. Can’t connect to the app – Only the Omega has the Bluetooth connection. Check
your IOS or Android device, make sure the Bluetooth connection is on. If yes
check with another device, and if nothing works change the circuit board.
CHANGING THE CIRCUIT BOARD
#1 #2 #3
Remove 4 screws from the front
(Photo #1)
Remove 1 screw from the panel
(Photo #2)
Unplug and replace panel
(Photo #3)
5. Two balls are coming out of the robot quickly one after the other – Align one of
the silver line on the tube with the top of the base unit.
6. The balls are suddenly being delivered irregularly and with varying length -
Make sure the connecting cables are fully connected, and there are no loose
connections. The Omega has one connection, and robots with control box have
3 connections.
