Doug,

  The FAQ are wrong!  It's 8 VAC the same as the 9114.  There's no polarity
key since it's AC.

  Turn the PP on by pressing any key (except shift, control or extended
char) for at least 1/4 second.  Turn it off by pressing the F8 key when OFF
 is shown on the key labels for that key. If OFF isn't shown, try pressing
the USER or MENU keys until OFF is shown.  The half-moon looking key
controls the screeen contrast.

 OK, I'm staring at my recently acquired HP Portable
Plus with it's oddball
power plug.  The FAQ tells me it wants 6V, but the only thing I have that
fits is an 8V supply from a 9114, which I'm sure will do the trick, but I
don't see two things: a polarity key and a power switch.  Does the Plus
care about polarity?  If not, how do I turn it on?
