stupid question (power connector)

stupid question (power connector)

2004-04-05 by Doug Pearson

Hi All,

I was just wiring up a +/-15v power supply for Wiard usage, and I'm stumped 
when it comes to the final step of wiring the DIN receptacle.

When looking at it from the back (the side where the wires from the power 
supply attach, not the side that the DIN cable plugs into), there are 5 
terminals, labeled (from left to right):
1 / 4  /  2 /  5  /  3
1 is at 9 o'clock, 2 is down at 6 o'clock, and 3 is at 3 o'clock
the lock tab is up top at 12 o'clock

which three of those five terminals do I attach -15v, ground, and +15v to?

Thanks,

	-Doug

Follow the diagram on this page:

4and35.htm

+15V is V1 and -15V is V2

They don't specify front or rear view, you will have to determine 
that by inspection.

Basically Ground is Pin 1, +15V is pin 3 and -15V is pin 5. But 
don't trust that the numbering matches between different 
connector brands.

Thanks, Grant!

The numbering is the same (1-4-2-5-3 in a lower semicircle) on both 
connectors, so that seems to be standard DIN numbering.  And yes, the 
correct power connector wiring is 1 gnd, 3 +15v, 5 -15v (which makes heat 
shrink tubing essential on 3 & 5).  Well marked on the Wiard modules, but I 
was soldering at home, and all the modules are in the studio on the other 
side of the bay ...
