You can display patterns and texts on the 5x5 grid of red LEDs. The LEDs can send light as well as measure light.

5x5 MATRIX

HELLO, CALLIOPE MINI!

Plug a micro-USB cable into the USB port to connect the Calliope mini to a computer.

USB

The buttons A and B are inputs through which the Calliope mini executes the pro-grammed commands.

BUTTONS

By touching the pins 0, 1, 2, or 3 you can also make entries so that the Calliope mini executes commands.

You must touch thenegativ pin (-) with the other hand at the same time in order to close the circuit.

PINS

The processor is the heart of the Calliope mini! It combines all functions with each other and processes all information and commands.

PROCESSOR

You can connect up to two motors here and then control them with your program.

MOTORPINS

Connect the cable of your battery holder to the battery socket. Now you are mobile!

BATTERY

The RGB-LED can shine in various bright colours. The different colours are mixed using red, green and blue.

RGB-LED

Use the reset button to restart the program on the Calliope mini.

RESET

Grove connector for sensors. Simply plug one in and get started!

EXTENSIONS

SENSORSWith the combined position and movement sensor,as well as a compass, you can determine whether the Calliope mini is moving, in which di-rection it is held, or how it is turned. The temperature and light sensors measure ambient heat and available light.

RADIOYou can wireless-ly send signals from one Calliope mini to another and forwardmessages.
