Attaching the Antenna
The antenna is stored in the back of the Chimpanzee Controller to prevent damage.
To attach the antenna, simply remove from its storage slot, insert into the hole situated on the
top of the Controller (between the two toggle switches), and screw into place; as illustrated
above.
When not in use, unscrew the antenna and place back in the antenna storage slot.
Toggle Switches
These switches change the function of the joysticks, animations and sound
buttons.
Animation and Sound Buttons
Use these buttons to make the Chimpanzee perform animations and sounds on demand.
Joysticks
Control the Chimpanzee’s movements directly with the joysticks.
Chimpanzee Overview
Turning ON the Chimpanzee
To turn ON the Chimpanzee, slide the switch located at the back of his neck to the ON position.
He will perform an animation, starting in Curious Mood. He is in Alive Mode and will react to
sensor input.
To deactivate the Chimpanzee, simply turn him OFF using the same switch. He will lose his
current mood settings and the user program memory.
Full Reset
If you wish to reset the Chimpanzee to his default settings, turn him OFF and then ON again.

Alive Mode
In Alive Mode, the Chimpanzee will react to user interaction through his sensors with
different animations depending on his mood.
When he is first turned on, he is in his default mood - Curious. When returning to
Alive Mode from Direct Control Mode, the Chimpanzee will start in the mood he was
last performing (see Moods below).
NOTE: The Chimpanzeeʼs sensors only work in Alive Mode and Guard Mode.
• While in Alive Mode the Chimpanzee will perform little blinks and eye
movements even when not played with.
• He will leave Alive Mode if any of the buttons (except Alive Mode) or
joysticks on the controller are touched.
• He will re-enter Alive Mode if he is given no controller commands for approximately
four minutes or if the Alive button on the controller is pressed and held for
around 2.5 seconds.
Moods
The Chimpanzee has four Moods which determine his reactions to user interaction.
Whenever you interact with the Chimpanzee in Alive Mode through his sensors, you
will influence his moods.
The Chimpanzee’s four Moods are:
Curious (default mood)
Happy
Fearful
Angry
The Chimpanzee’s emotions change as a direct result of how he is treated. In most
cases a tap on the back of his head or a flick to the ears will make him angry, flinches
and sounds will make him more fearful and a stroke, pat, or tickle will make him
happy. Leave him alone for a while and he will eventually return to curious mood (this
is his default mode).
Touch Sensors
There are 5 touch sensors on the Chimpanzee, one in each ear, one under his chin, one on the
back and one on the top of his head.
(see Chimpanzee Overview on p.8)
Ears
The Chimpanzee has a touch sensor located in each ear. These sensors react to a light flick.
Chin
You can gently tickle or tap the area under the Chimpanzee’s chin and he will react in a friendly
way, but this can vary depending on his current mood state.
Head
There are two sensors located on the chimpanzee’s head; one is on the top and one is on the
back of his head. There are four different ways of eliciting a reaction from the Chimpanzee with
these sensors:
1. Tap (single touch) the top of the Chimpanzee’s head.
2. Pat (repeated rapid taps) the top of his head.
3. Tap (single touch) the back of the Chimpanzee’s head.
4. Stroke (top to back - rapidly) his head from top to back.

Infrared Vision System
The Chimpanzee’s Infrared Vision System enables him to detect movement in front of him. His
vision is ON only when he is not moving or making a sound.
Tracking
The Vision System reacts best to movement in the area just in front of his nose (see illustration
below). The Chimpanzee will track objects in front of his face - Up, Down, Left, and Right.
When tracking an object the Chimpanzee will keep his vision locked on it until he loses sight of
it. This will not affect his mood.
Flinch
Put something quickly in front of the Chimpanzee’s face and he will react with a surprised
response. This will affect his mood.
See Guard Mode (p.17) for further uses of the Chimpanzee’s Vision System.

aroun
NOTE: The Chimpanzee’s Infrared Vision works best at around 8 inches from his face.
Infrared functions can be affected by bright sunlight, fluorescent and electronically
dimmed lighting.
The Chimpanzee’s vision is only ON in Alive Mode or Guard Mode.
11
Stereo Hearing
The Chimpanzee has a Stereo Sound Detection System which can detect sharp,
loud sounds (like a clap) to his left, his right and directly ahead. He will only listen
when he is not moving or making sound.
When he hears a sound, the Chimpanzee will respond with an animation.
Responding to sounds will also influence his mood.
NOTE: The Chimpanzee’s Stereo Hearing is only ON in Alive Mode or Guard
Mode.
12
Direct Control
Direct Control of the Chimpanzee is activated by pressing any of the buttons on the controller
(except the Alive button), or by moving the joysticks, automatically taking him out of Alive Mode.
Once in Direct Control Mode, the Chimpanzee is animated by using the following controller
features:
Animation Buttons
Sound Buttons
Joysticks
All commands given using the joysticks or buttons have different operations, depending on the
position of the Toggle Switches.
Animation and Sound Buttons
Animation Buttons
Pressing one of these buttons will make the Chimpanzee perform an
animation determined by the mood selected. (see Toggle Chart below)
Sound Buttons
By pressing one of these buttons, the Chimpanzee will “speak” in a way
determined by the mood selected. (see Toggle Chart below)
His mouth will animate while he makes sounds.
There is a toggle switch on each
shoulder of the controller.
The Toggle Chart (right) illustrates the
position of each toggle for the Chimpanzee’s
4 moods.

Program Mode
You can program a sequence of movements and sounds in Program Mode. To enter
the Program Mode the user must hold the Program button down for around 2.5
seconds, the Chimpanzee will “speak” to acknowledge Program Mode entry.
Using the joystick, the user can send commands to the Chimpanzee to perform a
movement. The move is stored only after the joystick is released, or moved in
another direction.
The amount of time that the joystick is held in a specific direction determines how far
the Chimpanzee moves. When a joystick is moved in another direction, this is a new
step in the program.
STORING A PROGRAM
You can program a maximum of 20 steps. By pressing a Sound button, it will be
added into the sequence as a step.
End Program Mode by pressing the Program button again, programming all 20 steps,
or if the programming halts for 10 seconds. The Chimpanzee will perform the
sequence that was programmed.
A stored program can be played back at any time and in any mood, by pressing the
Program button once. If there is nothing programmed, the Chimpanzee will remain
stationary. If the user enters Program Mode when a program is already stored, that
program will be overwritten.
RESETING PROGRAM MODE
To reset the Program Mode manually, enter Program Mode and hold the Program
Mode button for around 2.5 seconds again. Press the Program Mode button again to
exit Program Mode.
16
Guard Mode
Pressing the Program button and the Alive button at the same time will put the
Chimpanzee into Guard Mode. He will confirm this with a Sound and /or Motion.
In Guard Mode, the Chimpanzee will use his Vision Sensors and Stereo Sound
Sensors to guard the area immediately around him. Occasionally the Chimpanzee
will turn his head and look around.
Upon seeing or hearing something, Chimpanzee will perform a programmed routine
- if there is no program in his memory then he will perform a random animation. He
tracks movement but a flinch sets off the Guard Mode response.
After around 20 minutes he exits Guard Mode and the Chimpanzee goes into Sleep
Mode, performing an animation before doing so.
To exit Guard Mode at any time, press and hold the Alive button for around 2.5
seconds.
Demo Mode
Pressing the Demo button makes the Chimpanzee perform a random sequence of
2 or 3 animations. After a Demo sequence, the Chimpanzee returns to whichever
mode he was in previously.
Sleep Mode
When the Chimpanzee is in Direct Control Mode and has had no input for
approximately 4 minutes he will go into Alive Mode.
When the Chimpanzee is in Alive Mode and has had no interaction for 10 minutes he
will Power Down.
To wake the Chimpanzee up, press any of the Touch Sensors on his head (see p.10
for sensor positions).
