Greetings all;
Further to my queries some weeks ago, and list suggestions (in particular
Pat Finnegan), I have the answer regarding running my three-phase
configured Onyx on a single-phase 220v outlet.
I removed the four-wire TwistLock plug end and replaced it with a
three-wire stove outlet plug (NEMA10-50R). I connected L1 and L3 to one
hot leg of the 220v plug, and L2 to the other, and N to the GND line. Only
two of the OLS' (PSUs) come up in this wiring manner, so I removed the one
that did not (without removing it the Onyx notices it is there, but not
producing juice, and fails self-test).
The System Controller comes up, boot arbitration completes and
Thunderbirds Are Go.
Actually, one of my blowers has kicked the bucket (and, to be fair, the
other is pretty grumpy, but eventually spins up) and the Onyx is halting
on a BLOWER B FAILURE. But that's another story :)
Thanks again for your help. I thought I'd post back and leave this in the
archives for any future Onyx suckers in my position.
