Powering Lilliput

peecee · 03-23-2006, 02:41 PM

Simple question which I think I know the answer to, but I've searched and can't find exactly...I could wait until I get home today, but I thought I'd get it into the collective knowledge of this list as well.

What should the tip be oriented to on my Radio Shack "m" connector to power my 629? I read in this Lilliput FAQ that the tip is +ve, which I am guessing means that I should orient the tip to +. I know I should know this, and I'll be able to verify when I get home from work, but I'm stoked to get started on this little asptect of the project and don't want to screw up my Lilliput.

Inside of barrel is +12 and the outside is ground. Is that what you wanted to know?

take the ac or car adapter, plug it in, and use a multimeter to figure it out

Like I said, I know I can do that when I get home. That's about 10 hours away. I was hoping someone knew this from previous experience. If that's not the case, I'll just wait until I get home and post up if it's tip to positive (which I think it is) or tip to negative.
