Software
WeeeCode is a graphical programming software that developed by WEEEMAKE on the basis of Scratch 3.0. It supports graphical programming as well as Arduino IDE code. In Weeecode, you only need to drag and drop the code modules to create lots of programs and showcases. WeeeCode supports WeeeBot perfectly.
Operation system: Windows/Mac More information: www.weeemake.com
WeeeCode Graphical Programming Software
Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware (Arduino boards) and software (IDE). The Arduino Software (IDE) allows you to write programs and upload them to your board. Arduino senses the environment by receiving inputs from many sensors, and affects its surroundings by controlling lights, motors, and other actuators. The ELF mainboard designed by WEEEMAKE is fully compatible with Arduino platform. With ELF and Arduino IDE, you can develop your own smart application project or education project.

FAQ
Q1:When I turn on the WeeeBot, my robot has no response, why? A:It is possibly caused by:
1. Low voltage, please recharge all your batteries or replace with new batteries.
2. Batteries installed in wrong polarity (+/-);
3. Incorrect wring on battery holder or motor.
Q2:When I controlled the WeeeBot to move forward, it moved backwards. How can I fix this? A:The wiring of the motor is connected reversed. Please reconnect.
Q3:I cannot connect WeeeBot to computer via USB cable nor wireless way, how can I fix it? A:Your computer hasn’t installed the driver of the main board. Please install driver, restart the WeeeBot, and connect to computer
again. For more information please visit http://www.weeemake.com.
Q4:Why the WeeeBot cannot move with USB power supply? A:USB power supply can only support chip and sensors in mainboard. To drive motors, please connect batteries and switch on the
power button.
Q5:Why screws on WeeeBot will be loose after being used for a period? A:WeeeBot use standard stainless-steel screws to fix all parts. The vibration generated during the operation of robot may cause the
screw to loosen. Please tighten them with a screwdriver in time.
Q6:Why the software cannot read the value of sensor? A:Please check your wiring, make sure sensors are connected to the right port in manual or in WeeeCode software.
Q7:Why the Line-following Sensor doesn’t work? A: Please:
1. Make sure the distance between Line-following sensor and line-following map is between 1-2cm, this is the best working range.
2. Do not use Line-following mode under strong light. Strong light will interfere the function of Line-following Sensor.
3. Make sure to use unreflecting material to make your own line-following map.
FAQ
Q8:When do you need to replace batteries or charge batteries? A:If the speed is set to maximum value, and your robot run slowly, or keep restarting, you must replace all batteries, or charge your rechargeable batteries.
Q9:How to reset the default firmware or online firmware for ELF mainboard? A:Connect ELF mainboard to computer with USB cable, open software WeeeCode.
1. Select menu “Arduino”, click “Restore Online Filmware”.
2. Select menu “Arduino”, click “Restore Factory Filmware”.
Q10:If motor shaft accidentally broken, how to fix it? A:Please take the backup motor shaft in package, and replace the broken parts by follow instructions:
1. Disassemble the transparent rubber case and rubber connector(the connector is elastic for pulling out);
2. Unscrew to divide the gearbox and metal motor;
3. Replace the broken motor shaft.
