Setting a DECserver free

If you Google for 90stalps there is a document where you can look up by the DExxx model number (from the module's label) whether it needs the 12/5 supply or the 5-only supply. It also gives pinouts. Note that the pinouts for the 12/5 and 5-only supplies are incompatible. IIRC you can double-check the pinout with a continuity tester. The metal bolt between the DIN and the backplane connector is grounded. The pinout in 90stalps is as viewed from the PLUG on the power supply cord. >From my notes, here is a pinout for the 5-volt-only modules as viewed from the JACK on the module. G N P |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| G K P [] | backplane conn | G P |________________| G=ground, P=+5V@2A, N=NC, K=empty this is a 7-pin mini-din, but 8-pin plugs can be used. bending one of the pins might help with insertion. ps/2 connectors will NOT work. I have thrown together a supply using a small enclosed switching supply. It works well. These days, one of those 5-volt switching wallwarts is probably also a possibility. Since DIN connectors accept fairly thin wire, you'll want to parallel 3 wires per rail (i.e. one per pin) to provide current handling capacity. -- Adam
