# Instructions ## Primary Action Execute the `connect OBJ to OBJ` action. The syntax is `connect <ComponentA> <TerminalA> to <ComponentB> <TerminalB>`. ## When to Use Use this skill when you need to establish an electrical connection between two components as part of building a circuit for testing or device operation. Common scenarios include: * Building a circuit to test a material's conductivity. * Connecting a power source (battery) to a load (light bulb, buzzer). * Integrating a switch or sensor into a circuit. ## Procedure 1. **Identify Components:** Locate the two components you need to connect (e.g., `battery`, `black wire`, `unknown substance M`, `electric buzzer`). 2. **Identify Terminals:** Examine the components if necessary to determine their available connection points (e.g., `anode`, `cathode`, `terminal 1`, `terminal 2`). 3. **Formulate Command:** Construct the `connect` command using the pattern: `connect <ComponentA> <TerminalA> to <ComponentB> <TerminalB>`. * Example from trajectory: `connect battery anode to black wire terminal 1` 4. **Execute:** Issue the command. A successful observation will confirm the connection (e.g., "`anode on battery is now connected to terminal 1 on black wire`"). ## Key Principles * **Circuit Logic:** Ensure your connections follow basic electrical principles. A typical series circuit path might be: Battery (+) -> Wire -> Device -> Wire -> Battery (-). * **Verification:** After making connections, check the state of indicators (like lights or buzzers) or use the `examine` action on components to verify the circuit is complete and functional. * **Error Handling:** If a connection fails, verify the component and terminal names are correct. Some terminals may only accept one connection. ## Related Skills * For disconnecting components, use the `disconnect OBJ` action. * To activate/deactivate a powered component in the circuit, use the `activate OBJ`/`deactivate OBJ` actions. * Refer to `references/circuit_basics.md` for common circuit diagrams and troubleshooting.
