Digisound VCDO & MOTM 900

Digisound VCDO & MOTM 900

2002-04-08 by Inform3r

I'm in the final stages of wiring up a Digisound VCDO to include in my
MOTM system. I'm having a mind boggling time figuring out how to hook it up
to my MOTM 900 psu.... I took 4 cables and soldered a MOLEX psu connector on
one end. The other end I want to hard-wire into the Digisound board. Only
problem is I dont know how. Here's what's confusing me; on the Digisound
there are 4 pads: -15, +15, +5, 0V (in that order).
    The MOTM is typically -15, GND, GND, +15. I dont know what to do! Its
probably real easy to figure out but I'm a lamer when it comes to power
issues. Can someone please help?

                Thanks,
                John

Your MOTM supply does not have a regulated +5V output, which the 
DigiSound needs. For the rest of the connections, -15 to -15, +15 to 
+15, GND to 0V. You'll need to come up with +5V from another supply, 
however. Or you can wire a small onboard regulator to derive +5 from 
the +15 input. That's what some MOTM modules do that require +5V.
