Thanks Grant, I got it up and working yesterday. It's part of my birthday celebrabration so it was appropriate to hear it for the first time in the flesh (or perhap chitin) for the first time. Sounds wonderful, I look forward to spending much more time with it.
cheers, Mark

Hi Mark,

I'm glad it made it through the postal strike.

The connectors have a locking ramp, the matching PS-500 connectors should have a
plastic tang to engage it. Just be careful that all 4 pins are engaged correctly, and NEVER
remove the cover of the PS-500 if the line cord is plugged into mains power.

To emphasis that, always remove the mains cord from mains power berfore doing
anything what-so-ever with the power supply. Failure to do so could maim or kill you.

Wiard uses these standard colors:

RED = positive 15 volts
GREEN = GROUND
BLACK = negative 15 volts

Happy Woggling!
