Anyone have any documentation for these Power Supplies?

I bought a bunch of these off MTZArcade - they dont work like Happ 200 watt PS do - i.e. when you plug a PC power cord into them nothing happens!

Do I need to build a switch into it and if so - WHERE????

Thanks in advance!!
 
If it's just an ATX power supply, it may need the 'power on' wire shorted.

It's definitely not ATX....

I am hearing that I need to wire a switch or just jumper the wires on one of the connectors, but I really want someone to show me a wiring diagram or manual before I go "jumping wires' on a PS and blow it up...
 
Reds ar +5
Blacks are Ground
Orange is 12v+
Blue is -5 (I think)

Three pin white/black/green is remote turn on for monitor or another 110v part

The black/white brown/blue is a remote on off switch or its looped

blk/wht loops to brn/blue I think so when you plug it it, it turns on

Some of them have that and a button on the side for on off. But usually its the remote and no on/off button or no remote and a button

I can take a pic of the bypass loop tomorrow

I have a bunch of these PS, some have diagrams
 
not sure if you just have that PS on a table and are plugging it into a socket or if it's connected in a cab but, keep in mind that those PS usually need a load to work. Otherwise they can appear dead even when in good working order.
 
I had it on my test bench with a load, I did not have the loops or a switch. Sounds like once I get that going I will be ok
 
You have an A.M.O.A. standardized power supply made for certain JAMMA cabinets like some Dynamo conversion cabinets, some Konami cabinets, and some NeoGeo cabinets. It really is an old XT computer power supply made for amusement game use.

This power supply needs an external on-off power switch (double pole single throw, DPST).

Pinout is as follows:

The cable terminated in a 4 pin Molex connector is the power switch cable. You will need to connect a DPST toggle switch to this connector or two jumper wires in the connector to turn the power supply on. Pin 1 should be jumpered to pin 3. Next jumper pin 2 to pin 4.

The cable terminated in a 3 pin Molex connector is the switch controlled AC 120 volt output to the cabinet isolation transformer and fluorescent marquee light fixture. Pin 1 is AC Hot (black), pin 2 is earth ground (green), and pin 3 is AC Neutral (white).

The cable terminated in a 9 pin Molex connector is the DC output to the gameboard. Pins 1, 2, and 3 (usually red color) are +5 volts. Pins 4, 5, and 6 are ground (usually black color). Pin 7 is -5 volts (wire color may vary from model to model). Pin 8 is +12 volts (wire color may vary from model to model). Pin 9 is empty and not used.

These power supplies MUST HAVE A LOAD CONNECTED (to the +5 volts) to operate properly.
