 | | Sign of center pin on power adaptor

I am looking for the sign of the center pin on the RCX 1.0 power adaptor plug. I have a DC 9v 200ma transformer and want to plug it into the RCX but I do not know what the sign is on the center of the plug. It looks like the rush on buying the old (...)

(...) If you load RCX2 firmware in a RCX1 brick (they are fully compatible*), you'll have acces to this function (and all other RCX2 specific possibilities) Philo *Except for some minor differences in IR hardware. (17 years ago, 25-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

NQC: with RCX2, it has a function to display a user defined value. Is there a way to do it with RCX 1.0? How about just to display the current mail value with RCX1.0? Suggestion? Thanks in advance. --Elizabeth (17 years ago, 24-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Elizabeth is quite right. It's easy to get collisions on the IR "bus" if two devices are sending (or replying) simultaneously.
