Guest Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hoping someone can advise. Got a 1200XL and Indus GT from America, and realise that you can't just plug these in and go.... not unless I want my 8-bit shenanigans to be all smoke-based. My understanding is that for the Indus GT a 5200 PSU should work - these are 9V. But other reports suggest 12v DC +. If the 9v 5200 PSU is suitable, what about a std 1050 PSU? So question is: to make both a 1200XL and an Indus GT work in the UK, which PSUs/adapters are the best to buy, and from where? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Westphal Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Do not use a 1050 power with Indus GT. The Indus/5200 is DC out, 1050/810/400/800 is AC out. B&C Computervisions and Best Electronics have them. The TRAK disk drives power are also DC out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMartian Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 TRAK is 9v AC for sure. It's also easy to solder in a bridge rectifier into an Indus to make it work with either a DC or AC power supply.. I'll take a photo of mine and post it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
