Q3: I bought many mTiny kits, but sometimes pairing these mTiny with their companion tap pen controllers could be a mess. What can I do?
mTiny automatically pairs with its companion tap pen controller under factory settings. If pairing fails, you can refer to Pair mTiny with the tap pen controller. Follow the steps to complete the pairing process.
If each mTiny successfully pairs with its companion tap pen controller, we recommend you use stickers or any other way to label them so that you can easily distinguish between them.
Q4: Why does my mTiny cannot recognize some map extension packs
Map extension packs have separate firmware (e.g. Fishing big competition_game map). The firmware for them is not factory-adapted, so you need to update corresponding firmware to use it normally. Please refer to the article “How to Update Firmware for mTiny” for more information about steps of firmware updation.
Here is the firmware file you need to download and unzip: system.zip
If you are not sure which firmware you should download for the map pack you have, please contact the support team service@makeblock.com .
Q5: My mTiny can't make a sound, but it can recognize the scene map normally (the screen will have an effect)?
First, it is recommended to restart the device and turn the knob to the maximum volume (try several times) to see if the fault persists.
If the fault persists, click here to update the firmware and test the device after a successful update.
Q6: The joystick on my tap pen controller doesn't work properly?
After being used for a long time, the joystick may fail to perform precise control. In this case, you can refer to this article for calibration: How to Calibrate the Tap Pen Controller
Q7: My mTiny did not go straight and the turning angle has error?
mTiny uses OID recognition, place it on the map will be more accurate.
Q8: mTiny does not turn 90 degrees normally when executing a command card instruction to turn left or right, but turns more than 100 degrees?
Update the firmware(How to Update Firmware for mTiny), wait for the successful update and try the command again.
Q9: What should I do if the rocker cap on the tap pen controller comes off?
If the rubber cap of the joystick of the tap pen falls off accidentally, you can refer to the following operation video to reassemble it.
Q10: About the automatic shutdown protection mechanism of mTiny
mTiny Discover Kit turns off automatically in 20 minutes without operation and the mTiny Coding Kit in 5 minutes.
Q11: Why are mTiny eyes not displayed (full white)?
1. Update the firmware according to this article.
2. If the adapter board is faulty, please contact service@makeblock.com .
