I finally decided to buy a nice PSU to use as power for
experiments and my Modular I'm building, but I'm having trouble
figuring how to set it up for +-15V:
I got it for $45 US at Mouser, it's a 597-AA15-0.8 by
International Power (DC Power Supplies)... It came with a piece of
paper from IP that gives instructions on stuff like remote sense and
specs of the thing. I saw on the unit itself I needed to cut 2
jumpers to get +-15V from it (did that), and that on the transformer
I need to connect jumpers 1&3, 2&4, so I guess I should do that with
a rather low gauge wire and heat-shrink the xformer connections,
right?... It then says to put the AC at jumpers 1 and 4, is there a
specific order to do that in, or can either prong wire go to either
jumper?... Next it says I need a "max current/fuse rating" of .75A,
so where does that go in the overall circuit from my outlet to
xformer?...
Then on the circuit board there are 7 wire connectors (-OUT,
-S (with +S, COM, -S put together between these), +S, +OUT) what are
these for?... (I think the middle 3 are for remote sense, whatever
that is) What do I do with each one, cause there's not really
anything about those on the paper?... Another question is how to get
a ground connection; or is that simply a connection to the middle 3rd
prong on my outlet?...
I just hope I can use this thing and that I didn't simply
waste $45, cause that would completly suck @$$!!!!!... Thx is you can
help me cause I have little experience with AC, and probly am just
asking some dumb questions up there in that "paragraph", if that's
what I want to call it...
