Powering the myrio from a battery supply

I am looking into options to power the myRIO from a battery power supply. The power requirements are easy enough, find an adequate array of battery cells to provide the voltage range of 6-16 V and enough capacity to run up to 14 W for a desired time. 
My question is how to connect it to the myRIO. Is there a size spec for the barrel plug? Or it is a generic part? If I wanted to order a twisted pair barrel plug what size could I get?
My other idea is to use the cell phone backup batteries that connect to the USB on the phone. Could I power the myRIO though the USB port with a backup phone battery or do I have to power it through the barrel plug only?
Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

Hi SiuaW,
The barrel connector is 5.5 mm x 2.1 mm. The spec can be found on this Community Page under hardware question #6.
Have a nice day,

  • HT4060 I would lke to use an iPAD with chart plotting programmes. Is it possible to charge the iPAD from a 12Volt supply or do I have to use an inverter to get mains Voltage first?

    I like offshore sailing which means that I am without mains electricty for extended periods. I am considering the use of an iPAD 4th generation with a download of iNAVX which would appear to give an iPAD excellent chart plotting capeabilities. But how to keep it charged after the battery runs out? It seems very inefficient to have to use an Inverter to get a mains voltage, only to reduce it again to the level of a USB output!

    Long time sailor but never tried charging an iPad aboard away from dock power.

  • How To Get The Most From My Battery...

    Hello! I just received my new MacBook Pro yesterday after a long absence from Mac. Was a PC person due to my profession...but I am back now! Yeah!
    One of my biggest complaints with my Dell was that the battery crapped out very quickly. I would like to extend & take care of my Mac battery the best I can but I don't know what are the correct procedures for this.
    Should I keep it plugged as often as possible?
    Should I let it charge up all the way and then work on it until the battery dies and then plug in for another recharge and repeat?
    Or does none of this really matter?
    Any help would be appreciated!!
    Thanks,
    Cynthia

  • Why is the Creative Cloud sucking the power from my battery?

    Using Macbook Pro. Is this a Mavericks issue or a Creative Cloud issue. My CC CPU is always 10+ with all Adobe programs closed. Frustrating!

    Okay, well I'm a previous customer with versions of Photoshop CS3, CS5 and CS6 - so where has the option gone for me to subscribe by the 31st December?
    When I follow the link in my original e-mail, all I get is the same page on the web site that lists 8th December as the closing date.

    How come although iPads are getting more powerful, the iOS apps from apple are so mediocre and just not that great? We spend all this money for the latest ipad and all we get is these $5 video and music apps from apple. Why create the iOS platform and only offer so so apps like IMovie and GarageBand ? While other developers are offering much better apps like pinnacle studio for video, Cubasis and Auria for music production, apple has not showed much growth in terms of innovation. While there's nothing wrong with making an app like GarageBand where "anyone " can make a song, how about something for real musicians or an app not so basic as it get for video editing? After spending 0ver $700 on an ipad I'd be willing to spend more than $5 for a better video or audio app.

    First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Problem with fan, temperature and battery after the restore from the stop (Macbook pro 15)

    From a couple of weeks my macbook pro (15" 2.4 Ghz i7 4gb OS X 10.7.4) has this problem: when i close the screen it goes to stop and when i open it goes out the stop normaly but the fan and the temperature increase and the battery last nothing. So i reboot the mac and everithings go to normal way and also battery time increase in comparison with before...

    I've found that samsung kies wifi started at the login and that the app used 91% of my cpu and filled up my ram so i went to: system preference > users and groups > login's elements > and i deleted the app from the list.

    I've the iphone 4s, and My battery show me 40% than the phone shut down,some of my friends the same, from when i'll update the system os.
    We've think that Apple do it for making the change of the phone!!  :O
    what will we have to do for making the downgrade of OS of the phone?
    tks Andrea

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    Apple has never supported downgrading of the iOS.

    I downloaded the numbers app to my mac pro it has been installed but will not let me open. Says it wasn't from an approved supplier. I'm new to macpro so just need some assistance

    I'm not sure. Not really great with computers so i just went to the apple store to download. I thought that was what I would need to do. Paid $19.99 for. So I have no clue what I done.

  • HT201263 My I phone 5 got hot actually very hot.. Boiling hot and then the battery charge went from 100 to 50 and within a minute was shut down and never on again...I bought the phone from the apple store in manhattan new York I bout the unlocked phone

    My I phone 5 got very hot actually boiling hot although it was not exposed to any external heat ...it was fully charged and within 10 minutes it was half charged 50% and within one minute it was shut down ... Tried re charging through the computer and through the power but no response the phone is totally black... Tried connecting to I tunes and no response.. The thing  is that I bought the I phone 5 on the 23 rd December 2012 from Manhattan new York and I live in Qatar and there is no service centre in qatar .. I am now without a phone although I paid 706$ and that's a big amount .. I am disappointed .. I bought an original phone from the original apple store and I ended up with a product that didn't survive for a month.. What quality assurance do the apple have on their products...I need help here

    I appreciate the fast reply.
    Well, I checked the iphone and the battery charged going from the bolt to the plug in the upper right hand corner very quickly. On my other cell phones, charging took a REAL long time.
    Again, is this normal? I unplugged the iphone from the charger and I am going to monitor the battery power today. I find it odd that the battery would work on standby for 4 days without recharging the battery and then start doing something wacky. Any thoughts?

  • Why does the light on my battery charger change from green to orange after a few seconds?

    Why does the light on my battery charger cable change from green to orange?  The battery continues to accept a charge when light turns orange.

    Green = not charging.
    Orange = charging.
    Note that if your laptop is pulling enough power (using CPU and GPU heavily) the light will turn green because the power adapter cannot provide enough power to charge your batteries in addition to keeping the system going.
    In fact, you can drain your batteries even with the adapter plugged in with the 17 inch Macbook Pro if you push it hard enough, although I have not noticed this problem with my Retina Macbook Pro.

  • How do I record the data from the accelerometer on myRio

    For example, using the template from myRio project for the accelerometer, I wanted to record the x,y,z values and store it in an array for future calculations( like k = x+y * z for every 0.01 sec). How do I do that? I tried using the array block diagram but an error of different data format came up. I tried using a table where i wire x to the table indicator, still same error. Can anyone explain how Labview works?

    Hi Yourong,
    you really should attach your VIs or even a picture (snippet) of the block diagram…
    - To store data in an array you might use the autoindexing of a loop.
    - You may use shift registers and a BuildArray function.
    - You may use shift registers and ReplaceArraySubset with a pre-defined array.
    All this is explained in the LabVIEW 101 offered by NI. Please go throught the basics courses! (ni.com/gettingstarted/labviewbasics)

  • I was using my ipad it was under 10% but no under 4% it turned off then i pluged the charger in and flashed on then showed apple sign after i turned it on. now its going back and forth from the apple sign and battery symbol ive changed chargers its not on

    hey please help!
    i was using my ipad it was under 10% but no under 4% it turned off then i pluged the charger in and flashed on then showed apple sign after i turned it on. now its going back and forth from the apple sign and battery symbol ive changed chargers its made no differnce its been like 3 hours ive tried to do that reset thing holding lock button and home button for 10 seconds at the same time. WHAT DO I DO?

    Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.
