Generally: Please return electronic parts to certified disposal companies after use. These will ensure the parts are disposed of in
compliance with the law. This is good for the environment and your part in actively protecting the environment.
ENVIRONMENTAL NOTES:
The soldering iron, the solder and the soldered parts become very hot. Be very careful!
We recommend using a soldering iron holder to set the soldering iron down safely during use.
This kit is only intended to be battery powered.
Keep these instructions for future reference! They contain important information.
Always use a soldering mat when soldering! It prevents parts and the PCB from slipping.
SAFETY NOTES:
For children and youngsters we recommend:
Assembly and soldering should be supervised by an adult!

You will also need:
„eMäxchen" soldering kit
"eMäxchen" PCB, including a microprocessor. This allows you to play the popular "Mäxchen" game on the finished PCB. The processor
is preprogrammed, so this kit requires no programming skills. Simply solder, play and if necessary cheat a bit.
The "eMäxchen" circuit board kit is perfect for soldering novices, all budding electronics engineers, amateur technicians and anybody
who enjoys building a circuit board with a soldering iron or soldering station. Over 20 parts are soldered to the
soldering kit - the popular game to solder yourself

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
When using an adjustable soldering station/iron, we recommend
a soldering temperature of about 320 - 340 degrees and a
soldering tip about 2-3 mm wide.
Now set out your tools and switch on your soldering iron.
Everything OK? Let's get started!
Set out and sort all parts. This will make it easier for you to later
identify the individual parts you will need during the steps. And it
doesn't hurt to tidy up your work space so you can quickly find
all parts.
Preparation Presorted parts:

APrepare resistors with the bending tool.
In order for the resistors to fit properly between the eyelets, the leads must be bent exactly in the correct location. To make this
easier, we have designed a simple yet functional bending tool. Simply place the resistors in the notch and bend the leads down
straight along the wooden edge. The part will now fit perfectly between the eyelets.

Check the polarity of the processor
Visually inspect all soldering points.
If individual soldering points are not
properly soldered, resolder with some
solder.
Replace the CR2032 battery you
inserted or check the battery voltage
with a multimeter.

Troubleshooting

Mäxchen - GAME INSTRUCTIONS
e
eeMäxchen is a game for two or more players in this version. The objective of the game is to always have a higher number than the number
rolled by another player before. The lowest number is 31, followed by 32, 41, 42, 43, 51, 52, 53, 54, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, then "doubles“ 11, 22, 33,
44, 55 and 66. The highest number is eMäxchen, 21. If you roll this, you win the round. Player 1 starts rolling by pressing and holding the "Roll"
button as long as they like. After releasing the button the result will appear, consisting of two die number (which the player hides from the other
players), with the left being higher or equal to the number on the right. Read the number as two digits.
If the If a player does not roll 21, they must either: or:say the number they rolled cheat/make up a number.
player cheats and says a different number, they can say any number except 21 not lower than the number rolled
before (so on the first roll any number except 21). After a few seconds the LEDs will go our (only the middle two
LEDs will flash now) and the PCB can be passed to the next player.
The next player can then It is now the current player's turn. The player rolls and believe the previous player they rolled the number called out:
tells the next player a number which must be higher or equal to the number called out before. If a lower number is rolled, the player must cheat
or they will immediately lose the round. In this case the current player will press the "Show!", button, which Or: don't believe the previous player:
shows the number rolled before. If the previous player in fact cheated, the current player wins. But - if the previous player said the truth, the
curren tplayer loses.
If no button is pressed for a few seconds, the game will automatically switch off. This extends the battery life considerably. If a battery is
drained, remove the battery and replace it with the same type. Please take the old battery to a collection site, never throw it in the household
rubbish. This is your active part in protecting the environment to everybody's benefit!
