<div dir="ltr">Probably not the problem, but did you check that it is DC and not AC? I've seen both types of power supplies, so it is a possibility that you got them mixed up.</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Nov 1, 2022 at 11:49 AM Didier Leplae via Synth-diy <<a href="mailto:synth-diy@synth-diy.org">synth-diy@synth-diy.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi,<br>
I live in the US but spending some time in Portugal and brought a 4ms Pod40 with me and a few modules. <br>
I’ve had the pod for a while but never tried using it until now. I also never had a power supply for it, so figured I would get a European supply for it while I’m here.<br>
<br>
Here are 4ms specs for what supplies will work:<br>
- 15-20vdc<br>
- positive Center 2.1mm barrel plug (5.5mm outer diameter)<br>
- minimum 20w output power<br>
- low-noise output<br>
<br>
I went to a local electronics store and bought a sort of universal supply. (The brand is “Classic” and model# PSE50249)<br>
It has a tip which seems to fit, but says it is “5.5/2.5mm, 12mm”.<br>
When I plug it in to the 4ms pod, the power flashes on and off, every second or so, even with no modules or ribbon cables attached.<br>
Testing the supply with a voltmeter, it is indeed positive tip and around 19.5V.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have an idea what I’m doing wrong here?<br>
<br>
