A simple mechanic for a simple color.
Each of the non-center buttons’ leds will be pointing in a direction. Refer to the table below to see which button is assigned which direction:
TL | TR | ML | MR | BL | BR | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
UP | LEFT | UP | DOWN | RIGHT | UP | RIGHT |
RIGHT | UP | LEFT | RIGHT | DOWN | DOWN | LEFT |
DOWN | DOWN | RIGHT | LEFT | UP | RIGHT | UP |
LEFT | RIGHT | DOWN | UP | LEFT | LEFT | DOWN |
Pressing the center button will play a text-to-speech message consisting of a number and a letter. If you are unable to hear, press the Status Light to enable/disable Deaf Mode. Start in the space on the table below where the number/letter intersects:
A | B | C | D | E | F | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | ML | BL | TR | TL | MR | BR |
2 | TL | ML | BR | MR | TR | BL |
3 | BL | MR | TL | TR | BR | ML |
4 | MR | TL | BL | BR | ML | TR |
5 | BR | TR | MR | ML | BL | TL |
6 | TR | BR | ML | BL | TL | MR |
Follow the instructions below:
- Press the button that correlates to the space that you are currently on.
- From the space you’re currently on, move in the direction in the table that was assigned to the button that you pushed in the previous step.
- If this next space has a button that’s already been pressed, keep moving in that direction, wrapping around when necessary until you reach a space that contains a button that hasn’t been pressed yet.
