O3000 Power Brick Configuration - Archaic - 05-07-2021
Does anybody remember what needs to be done to configure the power brick for 110V?

Hi Archaic,
never had one of these, but doco says they need 200-240 AC

There's a jumper block on the main PCB that marked "AC-Range" with both 200-240V and 100-120V configurations indicated. I ran this one at 110V
Once you've disassembled enough of the Power Bay to expose the main PCB, the jumper block is on the right hand edge, about half-way down from the side with the out-bound power cable locks.
Real easy to get killed poking around in there, so I wouldn't recommend going in unless you know to safely discharge any residual voltage.

Thank you. I think it was you who told me how to do it the first time. It hasn't been plugged in in a few years, so I don't think that I will need to discharge anything. Thanks again!
