Subject: Running 900 PSU @ 220V?

From: "les_chupacabra" <ceterisparibus@...>
Date: 2004-05-30

I've got the 120V version. What steps need to be undertaken
to "convert" it to 220V?

It looks to me like the jumpers between "pins" 1&3 and 2&4 must be
desoldered and one soldered between 2&3.

Also, the wire soldered to pin 4 (white in my case) must be
desoldered and soldered to pin 5.

Is it as simple as that or does the fuse need to change? Any of the
other connectors change, etc?

I assume a different connector from the 900 to the wall is needed as
well and that those can be picked up for $5 from Radio Shack, Mouser,
Maplin, etc?

I'll check my documentation later today but it's not here & available
at the moment.

Beyond the PSU are there any differences between modules running @
120 vs. 220? It's all in the PSU correct?
