Re: Power supply

Hi Mark, I did wonder about the practicalities of getting a transformer specially made too, but as yet, have not done anything about it either. I was thinking that it might be possible to get a limited run of complete assemblies made, i.e., complete with case (though not matching the MTX) and power ...

It has been proposed that Memotech MTX user’s organise a get together for 2013 to revisit and discuss the Memotech range of computers and current activities in the Memotech world.

Re: Power supply

Hi Mark, Thanks a lot for that. I guess for anyone just wanting to use the standard MTX to play games etc. from tape, then the limitation of not beng able to use expansion cards might not be a problem. Personally though, I'd want the flexibility to be able to plug in at least the RS232 card. Actuall...

Re: Power supply

came with nothing! The components I selected for the replacement AC PSU were the best match that I could find from the three suppliers that I checked with. The transformers are rated higher than what may be needed, because there is not much choice of power ratings (in VA units) at the voltage ratin...

Re: Use with RS232 board connected?

I have tried with 2 different RS232 boards in two different MTX512s three different PSUs, with and without supplying additional 5VDC to the power pins on REMEMOrizer. All with the same symptoms, i.e., the MTX fails to start. It's seems pretty conclusive that REMEMOrizer will not work with an RS232 b...
