2. 4.5 V DC LEGO motor
This motor was developed specially for use with the LEGO Technic Sets. When used
together with the LEGO Interface, the motors can be connected in two ways:
a) To work in one direction only. The motors can be plugged into one of the output
sockets marked 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 and 0 - by means of an ordinary LEGO lead. The fixed
direction can be reversed by turning the plug on one end of the lead - either on
the motor or on the interface.
b) To work in either direction. The motor can be plugged into one of the output sockets
marked A, B or C. Change of direction can be operated by the computer, or by
turning the plug on one end of the lead - either on the motor or on the interface.
3. LEGO Leads and Plugs
All electrical connections to motors, light bricks and optosensors are made by means
of ordinary LEGO leads. The leads in this set have been provided with special plugs
on both ends. The plugs fit the stated components as well as the LEGO Interface, etc.
The plugs are not polarised and can thus be turned as you wish. It is possible to connect
two or more plugs together by using the holes on the side of the plug.
Note:
The motor runs only off DC from a battery or a power pack and works at a voltage
of 3-4.5 V. It uses a current of about 0.1 A when not loaded and runs at about 6,000
r.p.m. with new batteries. When it is driving a heavy load it will take up to 0.4 A
and when it is stalled up to 1.0 A. As this can damage your motor by overheating
it you should avoid stalling the motor.
