| | | Use the output (A, B, or C) to turn on the relay (you can pick those up at Radio Shack or wherever). The relay could be used to switch on a separate power source to power whatever device at whatever power/voltage you deem necessary. -Rob "Da Byte" (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | Thank You, Rob, for your quick response. Judging from the two comments I've received, I should have elaborated a bit. I wanted to use a relay to switch the other circuit, but the it wasn't exactly clear to me what specifications the relay should (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | Hi, I was wondering: isn't it feasable to use a transistor in stead of a relay? B: What kind do I use? (And how will I regognize it?) Thanks again! Remko (22 years ago, 29-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | | (...) My original idea is to switch a 12 - 14 V, 250 mA (Conrad) infrared beamer using my RCX's motor output. But it would be nice to be able to build a kind of universal switch for controling other devices. Thanks in advance! Remko (22 years ago, 4-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics)
