INSTRUCTION MANUAL Promystic Inside Out Instruction Manual 3 INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing ProMystics Inside Out. I think you will find this to be a very power effect that is devious and so guilt free that you will feel like you are cheating. It is so light weight and so fair that it will defy examination. There is nowhere for the spectator to go. The Inside Out box is made to high precision specification. I had several different designs that ranged from bulky and cumbersome to light weight and flimsy. I think this is the perfect combination of minimalistic design while still meeting all functional goals. By far, the #1 request for a cube that you can modify to be anything you want. Through painstaking design I was able to achieve this in what I think is a very minimalistic design. You have the choice of laser cut wood sides, color cube sides, and you can make your own sides with whiteboards and Lexan covers. The Lexan covers are required to keep the markers from fading. CAUTION: The Lexan covers will scratch, but the scratches are almost imperceptible when over the top of the whiteboard tiles. I will replace Lexan covers at an affordable price.

Find the bottom of the cube and push the paper clip into the hole to push the bottom electronics and plastic false bottom out of the cube. Remove the electronics and false bottom with your fingers. Installing the Battery:
Install the battery with the + side up. When installing the battery, the 6 side is up when the battery clasp is up. There are two programmable features that can only be programmed ONLY when you install the battery. You can set the features each time you install the battery. One is the Lock feature. The lock feature allows you to dial a code with the cube to shut it off. This allows you to carry the cube around and conserve battery power since it will not unexpectedly turn on. The second feature is to program the frequency. If you have purchases any ProMystic product it is set to the A frequency. I have made special receivers on the B frequency. The cube defaule is A frequency, but you can set it to work on the B frequency. It is very easy to set the modes. This is done when you install the battery. When you install the battery you get a series of initial signals or buzzes. 1) The first buzz is ignored 2) If the second buzz is a 6, then you ENABLE the LOCK feature, any other number disables it. 3-4) If the Third buzz is a 6 followed by the fourth buzz a 1, then you set the cube to B frequency. Both A and B receivers will work for the first four buzzes. Once the frequency A or B is set, only A or B will work. If you do not dial a 6-1 code, the default A frequency is set. Promystic Inside Out Instruction Manual 5 Installing the electronics into the base:
Install the electronics into the base with the batter going in first and covering the hole in the bottom of the box. There are four small posts in the corners of the box to hold it perfectly level. The battery clasp should cover the hold so that when you poke it out with a paper clip you are poking the battery. Installing the false bottom:
First install the electronic board with the battery side going in first. Then install the flalse bottom. The smoother side of the false bottom goes up. Then press fit the false bottom in place so it fits snug. Promystic Inside Out Instruction Manual 6 CUSTOMIZING YOUR BOX Installing Engraved Wood Emotion Tiles in Sides:
The wood tiles are installed by inserting them into the grooves in the side of the cube. They are best to install them with the wood grain going up and down in this picture, the words are horizontal. Installing Tiles in the TOP and BOTTOM:
Notice in the lid and bottom that there are two wide groves that are used for installing the tiles. Insert the tile into this grove first, and then push the tile into place. When installing the Lexan plastic tiles use the special tiles marked Top with polished side for the top and bottom. See whiteboard installation. Special Note: Love and Anger are cut a little smaller to be used in the top and bottom of the Inside Out cube. Notice the grain of the tiles as well. This helps the tiles bend into place. Promystic Inside Out Instruction Manual 7 Color Sides:
The color tiles are installed in the same manner as the wood tiles. Yellow and Black are used for 1 and 6 typically. Whiteboard Sides:
Polished Edges Notice that there are two clear Lexan tiles that are Labeled TOP. They are special tiles for the top and bottom of the cube. They have special polished sides to make them easier to install into the top and bottom of the cube. You must use these in the top and bottom of the cube. The polished sides are on the left and right side as it slides in. This is makes is much easier to slid into the top and bottom slots. Promystic Inside Out Instruction Manual 8 THE RECEIVER How to turn it on and off:
Slide the on/off switch. (See photo, below left.) When you switch the receiver on, it will vibrate for one second, letting you know it is ON. It does not vibrate when you switch it OFF. ON How to install batteries:
The receiver comes with two CR2032 batteries already installed. When the batteries are drained, the receiver will give one long, weak buzz, or just stop working. Youll notice that the range also decreases when the battery is low. To install new batteries:
Remove the old battery by pushing it out of the battery holder with a non-metallic object a toothpick, pencil, or corner of a credit card. Look for the + indicator on the battery, and hold it with that side toward you. Slide it into the battery holder. (See photo, below right.) Promystic Inside Out Instruction Manual 9 BATTERY TIPS Good batteries will give you about ten hours of active performance time. I recommend Panasonic, Sony, Energizer, or Renata. You can buy them online for less than $1 apiece. I get my batteries at www.digikey.com. Keep new batteries on hand, storing them so they dont contact each other or other metal. You should keep the receiver off when youre not using it, or the battery will drain. You do not need to remove the batteries. If youre performing for more than an hour, keep the receiver turned off as much as possible. Leaving it on for hours drains the batteries quickly. Using it for ten minutes at a time will give you much better battery life, because this allows the lithium batteries to recover from the load. Promystic Inside Out Instruction Manual 10 HOW THE CODES WORK The box has six sides. The transmitter inside sends out one to six pulses, according to which side is on top. The receiver vibrates or buzzes in response, telling you what you need to know. Each sequence of buzzes is followed by a pause. The sequence repeats ten times, unless the cube is turned before the tenth signal. For example, a 4 registers as buzz/buzz/buzz/buzz/pause; buzz/buzz/buzz/buzz/pause; etc. The codes are easy to remember in the English language. 1-white (sounds like), 2-blue (sounds like), 3-red (3-letters in red), 4-orange (sounds like), 5-green (5 letters in green), 6-yellow (6 letters in yellow).

A cube tilted more than 15 degrees may read the next closest side, though, which would leave you uncertain. To avoid this, manage your spectators and show them how to hold the cube (i.e., flat). 2) If a spectator turns the cube to a new side, the receiver must finish reporting the current number before it reports the next number. It wont go through ten repeats, but will finish its current sequence of buzzes, then change to the new number. Promystic Inside Out Instruction Manual 11 Active, Sleep, Deep Sleep, and LOCK Modes:
With a battery installed, the cube is always on. To conserve battery life, the cube has four modes: active, sleep, deep sleep, and lock. Active: When the cube is turned to a new side, it will transmit the code for that side ten times. Sleep: After transmitting ten times, the cube will go to sleep. At this point it will transmit only if turned to a new side. This approach not only preserves battery life, but also lets you continue your routine without all the buzzing in your pocket. When a new side of the cube is selected, the cube will go active within 4 seconds and transmit ten times. Deep sleep: If the cube isnt moved for about 10 minutes, it will go into deep sleep. The cube sleeps for 30 seconds at a time, then briefly checks to see whether it has been turned to a new side. If it detects a new side it will wake up. When the cube is turned, it will wake up within 30 seconds and go into the active state. When the cube is not in use, it stays in deep sleep to conserve battery life. Lock: In this mode the cube will not wake up until it receivers a special code. To put the cube to sleep, dial the cube 1-2-3-4-5-6. You must enable the Lock mode while installing the battery to enable this feature. It is used to lock the cube off for travel with the cube. To unlock the cube, turn the 6 side up. Wait for the 6 signal and then dial a 1 followed by a 6.
