Re: acorn with an old shopbot
Is that with nothing connected to the power supply?

Re: acorn with an old shopbot
The power supply has two outputs, +5VDC and +24VDC. Disconnect everything from the power supply except L, N, and Ground. What is the 5V output reading? What is the 24V output reading?
Cheers,
Tom
Confidence is the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are where they should be.

Re: acorn with an old shopbot
I am getting 5 volts and 19 volts. I have a new power supply coming now.

Re: acorn with an old shopbot
Did you try to adjust the voltage? There is a white adjusting knob in it.

Re: acorn with an old shopbot
If you have everything else still disconnected, I would go through and verify all the connections with a multimeter. That should catch a potential wiring mistake that may have killed the MeanWell and at the very least give some peace of mind. It is also possible it was an uncommon random failure.

Re: acorn with an old shopbot
I did redo all the connections I actually think the power supply was a little on the weak side as so of the problems I had ongoing are now cleared up. Such as not always starting up and the limits not always working.
