Dear Gang,
I recently got the Robotics Invention System 1.0 and I would like to know
which would be the positive for the AC adapter, the inside or outside. I
have an adapter, but I am not sure how to set the Positive/Negative
switch.

The RCX uses AC input, not DC. The AC/DC conversion is internal, so what
you need is a power adapter that outputs AC. I've heard that you
can toast your RCX with an AC/DC adapter as well, so be careful.
