  Re: Proper power supply for a 1.0?
 
(...) I'd like to be cutting in to this transformer conversation, since ... I'd like to know what kind of adapter I could use (and how) for supplying my RCX with power, since it has no inlet. I have tried to use DC adapters for 6, 9, and 12 Volts, (...) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: New release of leJOS for Windows
 
I followed the link but can't see any mention of the hardware compatibility of leJOS. Is anyone involved with the project planning to test it against the new RCX 2.0 brick and USB tower? Mark. (...) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  Re: Proper power supply for a 1.0?
 
(...) I've used the Train Transformers with great success. If you look close at your RCX you'll notice 9-12~ Anything from 9 to 12 volts AC or DC will work fine. Though to prevent your RCX's Diode Bridge from burning out AC is better. (Shares the (...) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Proper power supply for a 1.0?
 
(...) Well on the back of the LEGO train power supply it list Output as 12VAC 7VA, so I'm assuming that the DC conversion is done in the speed regulator, I couldn't tell you why. But it's good to know I can use this power supply with a 1.0 RCX since (...) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Be VERY careful with that train transformer (was:Proper power supply for a 1.0?)
 
(...) heh, notice that the original question was about the "power supply that goes with the 0v train spee dregulator" - so we're talking about lego transformers, not just any train transformer. :) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Proper power supply for a 1.0?
 
(...) true - but I think the RCX input is rated 9-12V. I don't have a train transformer here, but wouldn't it be outputing 12VDC? Can't imagine why they'd put a AC to DC converter in the regulator... Anyway, we've used the train transformers many (...) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Proper power supply for a 1.0?
 
What is the proper voltage for a external power supply for a 1.0 RCX? Can I use the power supply that goes with the 9v train speed regulator? I believe the train transformer outputs 12VAC. jt (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  where to look for in the legos source? gcc2.95.2 and win200?
 
I found in the linux pcmcia forum, that the serial pcmcia card from Socket Communications, which I want to use to download programs to rcx, sets the speed internally four times faster then expected. Is there a possibility in the firmdl3 and (...) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: problems with legos on notebook
 
Hallo Ross! I found in the linux pcmcia forum, that the socket pcmcia card, which I am using, sets the speed internally four times faster then expected. Is there a possibility in the firmdl3 and dll-source to divide the speed for the serial port by (...) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
