4. Upute za sastavljanje (Postavljanje)

This kit requires basic electronic theoretical knowledge and soldering skills. Patience is needed, especially for assembling the keys. All components have clearly assigned and marked connectors on the PCB.

Prepare the PCB: Identify all soldering points and component placements as indicated on the PCB.
Solder Smaller Components First: Begin by soldering the lowest profile components such as resistors, diodes, and IC sockets (if applicable). Ensure correct orientation for polarized components (diodes, ICs).
Install ICs: If using sockets, insert the ICs into their respective sockets after soldering the sockets to the PCB. Ensure correct orientation (notch/dot alignment).
Solder Display Modules: Attach the 6-digit 7-segment display modules to their designated positions.
Solder Buttons: Carefully solder all tactile buttons. This step requires patience to ensure they are flush and functional.
Solder Power Connectors: Solder the USB power connector and the button cell holder.
Assemble Acrylic Casing: Once all soldering is complete and verified, assemble the acrylic casing around the PCB using the provided screws and standoffs. Ensure the button grid aligns perfectly with the soldered buttons.

5. Upute za rad

5.1 Uključivanje

The calculator can be powered by either a USB cable (not included) or a CR2032 button cell battery (not always included). Do not supply power simultaneously from both sources.

USB napajanje: Connect a standard Micro USB cable to the calculator and a 5V power source.
Snaga baterije: Insert a CR2032 button cell battery into the battery holder, ensuring correct polarity.

To turn on the calculator, briefly press the ON/C button. To enter sleep mode, long-press the ON/C dugme.

5.2 Osnovne aritmetičke operacije

The calculator supports basic arithmetic operations with decimals and negative numbers, and continuous calculations.

Unesite brojeve pomoću numeričke tipkovnice.
Koristite +, -, ×, ÷ buttons for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Pritisnite = za prikaz rezultata.
Pritisnite ON/C to clear the current entry or calculation.

5.3 Resistance Value Measurement Mode

The calculator can measure the resistance value of four or five-band resistors by inputting the color codes.

Dugo pritisnite NAČIN RADA button to switch to resistance measurement mode. The digital display will show [ - - - - - - ].
Enter the color bands of the resistor using the corresponding buttons.
Pritisnite tipku = button to obtain the resistance value.

6. Održavanje

Čišćenje: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the acrylic casing. Izbjegavajte abrazivna sredstva za čišćenje ili otapala.
Zamjena baterije: If using battery power, replace the CR2032 button cell when the display dims or the calculator stops functioning. Ensure correct polarity.
Skladištenje: Store the calculator in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

7. Rješavanje problema

Problem	Mogući uzrok	Otopina
Kalkulator se ne uključuje.	No power source connected or battery depleted/incorrectly inserted.	Connect USB power or replace/reinsert CR2032 battery with correct polarity. Ensure only one power source is connected.
Gumbi ne reagiraju ili su ljepljivi.	Poor soldering connection for buttons or misalignment of acrylic button grid.	Check soldering points for cold joints or bridges. Re-align the acrylic casing if necessary.
Netočni rezultati izračuna.	Component values incorrect or soldering errors on ICs/resistors.	Verify all components are correctly placed and soldered according to the schematic. Check IC orientation.
Display shows garbled characters or nothing.	Display module not soldered correctly or IC issue.	Inspect display module soldering. Ensure ICs are seated properly in sockets.
