Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to prevent the IR tower
from shutting down. I disassembled the tower, but I am
really not a hardware expert. My educated guess would
be that it might be enough to remove the big, silver
capacitor that is sitting right next to the battery
contacts, and then wire the two vacated contacts straight
through. But like I say, that's a guess. Any experts out
there?

Kay

(...) I'm going to go at it from the other direction, I am writing an IDE (32 bit windows) for the pbFORTH system. My intention is to send a keepalive character every now and then to stop the tower going to sleep, at the moment I am debugging FORTH (...) (25 years ago, 14-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics)
