Preface
This builder’s guide has been developed to provide students with positive experiences in robotics engineering. With the
assistance of this guide, students will learn to use the TETRIX PRIME parts and myRIO to design and construct three different
robots. After using this guide, students should be able to use the TETRIX PRIME parts to construct a robot of their own
design.
Safety Information
Mechanical
• Keep fingers, hair, and loose articles of clothing clear of gears and moving parts.
• Never pick up the robot while it is moving or the servo motors are running.
• Remove any burrs caused by cutting the metal beams.
Electrical
• Make sure the power is turned off when the robot is not in operation.
• Do not operate the robot in a wet environment.
• Always power down the robot before making any changes.
