so, i was adjusting the b+ on the g07 in my jrok multi williams tonight, and when shutting it off for a minute (which i did several times) when adjusting the b+, the pcb wasn't turning back on.

further investigation confirmed the p/s wasn't working, but it did have the supplied 120vac. after letting it sit for a minute or two, it works fine. is this the overload protection working as it should, or is this the power supply going dead (or on its way to it)? it happened each time i would turn the game off and turn it right on again.

will this damage my jrok board if i leave it, or should i get a new p/s for it asap? power supply in question is a happ power pro.
 
I believe that's the way that supply works. You have to leave it off for 60 seconds before turning it on again. I'm sure this is a safety feature.
 
ok, thanks ken. i wasn't sure on that, and searching for it online gave no indication whatsoever, aside from the fact that the p/s does have overload protection.....
 
I think a lot of newer power supplies do this to prevent players from plugging/unplugging the power fast to get free credits.
 
I hate to hijack this thread, but I have this problem with a power pro as well.. up-200w i believe.. It actually stops working longer than 60 seconds after power cycle.. and now it doesn't even start up at all! All the caps were tested good. I am guessing its a problem with one of the IC's ??
