? US Robotics Sportster 28,800 Fax modem - PSU requirements.

D

David Chapman

Guest
I have mislaid the power supply for a US Robotics Sportster 28,800 Fax
Modem (with V34 and V32bis) which I would like to use. This modem
lights up and *appears* to work with a supply of 9 volts DC, drawing
around 200mA, but I'm not yet entirely convinced that it is performing
correctly.

I did some Google searching and haven't managed to find a manual or
any information about the particular unit that I have, but I did see a
similar modem mentioned which requires 9 volt AC to power it. I haven't
yet attempted feeding my modem with AC because I don't want to risk
damaging it..

Can anyone in this NG tell me what the correct voltage should be, and
if it should be AC or DC?
Is there anywhere on the 'net where I might find a User Manual for
this modem? I've searched for one, so far without any success.

Many thanks,

- Dave.

Have you tried contacting a support technician
http://www.usr-emea.com/support/s-email-techie-unkg.asp?loc=unkg

Alternatively, search for the 33.6 version manual - which was the same
hardware with a firmware update.

Good Luck, Sheila

Only data I have is for US models, but perhaps you'll find something of
use here. Since there have been 18.3 gazillion different "sportster"
models, it would help if you posted the exact part number.

Very many thanks for all of the contributions made in response to my
posting.

I have just sent a query to the support technicians at US Robotics and
am awaiting a reply.

I'm not sure of the exact model number - printed on the actual case
is a number which is similar, but different, to the list of models shown
above - it reads 1.020.139-B. There is also a white adhesive label on
the underside which says: CJE-0268 followed by the long number
0108390014294363,

From the above information it appears that the unit does require an AC
supply, but I'll wait a day or so to see if US Robotics reply before I
try experimenting with the supply voltage.

Thanks again - Dave

Run it on 12v DC, it's likely the regulators will be able to dissipate it
if it is excessive voltage.

IIRC the most common type is 13VAC.

Bear in mind that if it connects to the PC via RS232, it must be capable of

Well yes and no. IMSMC RS232 can start at anything up to +/- 15V
but is more usually 12. The important bit is what it is doing
when it gets to the other end - ISTR +/-5V absolute minimum,
usually 6.

And with electronics from anywhere in the last 30 years or so
higher voltages can easily be generated by cap/diode pumps or
more specialist chips. It's just that using ac as the source
means that they don't need to have an oscillator on board.

9V AC sounds about right for the Sportster 14400 (very similar). It's
definitely an AC supply and I'm fairly sure it's 9V. I think it may be a
bit more than 400mA, BICBW.

Click to expand...
A 9V AC power supply is sufficient to generate that without
resorting to switching; the peak voltages from the supply are
+/- 12.7 volts. A power supply which depends on that
is unlikely to function well with a 9V DC wall wart, though.

Well yes and no. IMSMC RS232 can start at anything up to +/- 15V
but is more usually 12. The important bit is what it is doing

I don't know, but in real life I've connected a standard RS232
interface to a board header which provided only TTL levels
(i.e. 0 and 5V) and had it function. I did this from desperation,
though, and wouldn't recommend it.

For what it's worth, I have here a US Robotics 56K Faxmodem, complete
with power supply. The label on the latter says "US Robotics SP3a. Input
230v~ plus/minus 10%. Output 9v~ 1000mA"

It shows that a 5V supply could be sufficient, depending on circuitry. Do
keep up.

Modem (with V34 and V32bis) which I would like to use. This modem
lights up and *appears* to work with a supply of 9 volts DC, drawing
around 200mA, but I'm not yet entirely convinced that it is performing
correctly.

I did some Google searching and haven't managed to find a manual or
any information about the particular unit that I have, but I did see a
similar modem mentioned which requires 9 volt AC to power it. I haven't
yet attempted feeding my modem with AC because I don't want to risk
damaging it..

Can anyone in this NG tell me what the correct voltage should be, and
if it should be AC or DC?
Is there anywhere on the 'net where I might find a User Manual for
this modem? I've searched for one, so far without any success.

Many thanks,

- Dave.


I can check when I get home. I have boxes of those things.

an original USR power adapter P/N 1.015.1286 = 9VAC 1000mA

that's the same power adapter for any of the 28.8 and 33.6 modems I have
here.

Have you tried contacting a support technician
http://www.usr-emea.com/support/s-email-techie-unkg.asp?loc=unkg

Alternatively, search for the 33.6 version manual - which was the same
hardware with a firmware update.

Good Luck, Sheila


Well, here's the definitive response that I've now received from US
Click to expand...
Robotics:-

"Based on the FCC number CJE-0268 that you gave us is from the model
number USR0839. If you have this model number then the specification of
the power supply is 20V AC .5A."

So, the correct voltage WAS somewhere between 9 volts DC and 20 volts
AC ;-)

And so to bed! Many thanks to all those who contributed to this
posting.

All the best - Dave
