Thanks very much Florian, It had something to do with a 184-1 which made a bad contact I presume. I removed it and had my -12V again, strange thing is that I plugged it in again and the -12V stayed.....spooky things happen. Thanks anyway for your help, much apreciated. Grts, Dann

Thanks very much for your answers Dieter, it really helped me out. The (strange) story....When I pulled out the 184-1 I had back my -12V, now the strange thing, when I plugged it back in, I kept the -12V, so everything is ok now. Now I'm a 99% sure the module was build in right..

I do not recommend to use one transformer for two units. Each A-100LC3 should have it's own transformer. As the transformer has 2.4A available the max. current would be 600 mA only (= 2400/4). And if the wiring of the second connector is wrong you generate a short circuit and wil

Yes, the sine/cosine outputs of the A-110-6 may be used. But as they are derived by waveshaping from triangles the waveforms are not as perfect as sine/cosine from VCOs with sine/cosine core. For best results I'd recommend a VCO with sine/cosine core. Best wishes Dieter Doepfer >
