Power supply for acorn (Resolved)

Post by LenelyWolf »

Hi again
Just to double check. I’ve got 24V 5amps power supply installed in my machine which powers lights, solenoids, relays and fans. Is it ok to use that power supply for powering acorn or is it safer to use acorn its own power supply?

A separate supply for the Acorn is recommended to reduce the amount of electrical noise that may cause problems with the Acorn.
