Can anyone clarify what the proper resistor value for the TAF high power (magnet) board is? The schematic just lists it as "1/2 W". In looking at pictures online of both original and replacement boards it's clear that they aren't all using the same resistor.

So, am I to understand that *ANY* 1/2 Watt resistor will work here, without regards to ohms?

Thanks in advance.

Page 2-12 lists it as 220 ohm, 1/2 watt.

Not sure I'd trust that either though. When trying to remake a 7-opto board the schematic had similar weird descriptions, where it stated the resistors were "either 1/2W or 2W", which doesn't make any sense, and it turned out the resistance reading they listed was missing a 'k' on the end :/

Thanks. I feel like an idiot now. I've been trying to figure it out using page 3-14. <sigh> I shouldn't attempt to do such things before the morning caffeine has kicked in!
