I inspected the motherboard and figured out that the center pin is positive (which is commonly the case but the consequence of getting wrong are disastrous) and the device is working fine. Thanks again for your time. Thanks for the info.

What I have is a power cord that plugs into the brick, and then the brick has another cord that plugs into the snap. So the transformer brick is in the middle of the power cord, if that makes sense. <img src="/blog/images/snap_power.jpg" width="313" height="550" border="0" alt="snap power supply label" title="snap power supply label" /> Here’s a digital picture of the label on the bottom of the brick.

Last time I checked you could get replacement power supplies from the vendor, so if you would prefer to have the "correct" equipment you probably can order one. I think it was about $50 or so.

I see it takes 12 VDC through a coaxial power jack but is the center pin positive or negative? If you know, I'd appreciate a clue! (The power supply may indicate which polarity is in use: look for a C with a dot in the middle. There will be an indication of whether the dot (representing the center pin of the connector) is positive or negative. Thanks for any information you can share. Mr. Rathbun–
