STEM in the Gym Generator
The generator can be connected to the demo board, knife switch
board, and the light and buzzer board.
1. Before using the generator, connect a black lead to the (-) terminal
and a red lead to the (+) terminal of each side of the display.
2. Connect the leads to the corresponding terminals on the board
you wish to power.
3. To use the generator, kneel on the pad in front of the generator
and turn the cranks (Figure 1). The faster you crank, the more
electricity you generate.
Note:
The cranks only generate electricity
in one direction. The display on top of the generator shows the
amount of voltage being generated.
Note:
The generator can be used in stand-alone fashion without
any connections to other components. Students can see how
much voltage they can produce by watching the display.
