The ACCESS:bit is a setup/clipboard for the BBC micro:bit that simulates a gateway. It features a switch to turn the integrated 3xAAA battery power on and off, as well as a buzzer for sound. The ACCESS:bit joins the family of transport/pedestrian crossing micro:bit accessories, which also includes the STOP:bit and LAMP:bit.

The ACCESS:bit comes with a single servo, a barrier, and all the necessary mounting materials. Once the micro:bit is mounted on the ACCESS:bit, the LED matrix is fully visible and can be used to display warning signals, stop/go symbols, or as a light sensor for autonomous actions.

The ACCESS:bit is designed to connect to the micro:bit using the supplied M3 countersunk screws or via crocodile clips. For pinout information, please refer to the datasheet.

Kitronik has also produced a set of customised MakeCode editor blocks that simplify the task of coding, making this activity more accessible to younger students.

To add the custom blocks to the MakeCode menu, select the gear icon in the top right corner of the editor. Then select Extensions from the dropdown menu. This opens the search box, search for Kitronik. Now select the ACCESS:bit tile and the blocks will be added to the editor.
