Does anyone here have a running Axil 220 or 245 (Sun SPARCstation LX clone)? My 220 has a
dead PSU and I am trying to get it working with a modern PC PSU. But I don’t know the
pinout for the power connector.
While the power connector is the same as used by Sun, the pinout and, aside from +5V and
GND, the wire color scheme are different. I have identified 3 of the 6 wire colors and 7
of the 10 pins. The wire color scheme seemed to be a match for early sun4c but I just
found something that suggests a couple wire colors are used differently.
I have found that black is ground, red is +5V, and yellow is +12V. White, orange, and blue
are TBD. A marking on the PSU board suggests white is -12V. Blue and orange seem to only
used by a daughter board centered on a LM339 chip. But, as a software guy, I can’t tell
what it does.
Anyone here have any insight here that might help me?
