RE: [motm] Cabinet Power - How To Do It?

2002-08-31 by John Loffink

Hmmm, if your AC is off, what voltage can you operate the relay from?
It sounds like a Catch 22 to me.  You would need some sort of standby
power, which this class of linear power supplies don't provide.

Would it be possible to have a remotely operated relay on the AC 
input, after the rear panel power switch, inside a power supply like 
the MOTM-900? The relay would be controlled by a switch on the front 
panel, so that the wiring from the power supply to the front panel 
carries no power.

I really would like a front panel power switch and power status leds, 
with the AC input on the rear.
