Ulf B found a remote from Clas Ohlson which can be used to test the startmodule (when it is in home mode) and it only costs 99kr.

To make the remote send the correct command you need to do the following:
Press and hold SET and push TV.
A red lamp will be lit. Enter code 1217.
The red lamp will turn off, Done!

Pressing 1 will now send the start signal to the startmodule and pressing 2 the stop.

On the 9th of November Stockholm Robot Championship will be held at Tekniska museet.

We are looking forward to meet you there!

If you don’t want to wait you should visit Robot-SM which will be held the 27th of April in Gothenburg.
