Hey Tony,

I watched the video and was courious if those 2 grounding pins have to still be snapped off and the screw with the installation paper and glue have to be sdne still if your only using 1 power supply only? Thanks.

If you are only using one supply no you don't have to isolate the Dc ground, if you do want to use two in the future the second one in series has to be floated (dc ground isolated) and you should not use that one on its own,

 

[Tony]

Yup, what he said. Just solder on your bullets, cross the pins and you will be good to go.

Just wanted to say thanks for all the insight! .....

Sweet, Thanks for the info SLOBBERDOG.

Ok, this is the power supply that I got (sse photos). Now I have plugged it, got power but nothing shows up on the volt meter. What am i missing?

 

[FlyNmonkeyNutz]

It will come on (fan will run) ... you have to connect the pins (or short out the pins in the front to get the juice flowing .... look through the pages on this Forum Post there are a ton of diagrams that can explain it far better than I. I am not sure on the Dell but there are HP Diagrams everywhere and Tony has a great YouTube video on it.

Very cool box

 

[redwings]

I guess i didn't do that but here is the thing, Its a 24 pins not 9. So which pins do is short out?

Hi Redwings

I have had a look around and it looks like you need this diagram to short the pins,

It's from someone off another forum that's using the same power supply

Aww sweet bro. Dose that diagram slow the fan down as well or would it be the same as the other configuration ON A 12 PIN?

thanks

Can only find what I put above and no mention of the fan, maybe it does not work like the dps600pb fan

 

[redwings]

thanks Just sent you a Pm on the same question. I'll try it, most can happen I could trip my breaker in my power bar I hope.

YA, saw the video only problem is his power supply has 12, pins, mine has 24 pins. Just trying to work out the kinks with another forum member now. Thanks

 

[Slobberdog]

If you short the pins as per the diagram I posted you should not have a problem

 

[redwings]

Tony,

I have seen your video , bu I have a problem. I have a 24 pin power supply, so which pins would I shot out to get the same results including the fan? See pics for details. Thanks

I'll do ya one better, here is the video on how to do it...

Thanks SLOBBERDOG for the advice, Just wondering if the same pin configuration will work on a 24 pin set up. I'll test it and see. What could go wrong.
