    You are definitely right that it's for an alarm system. I only picked up that it was from an alarm system when I looked carefully at the back of the PSU.... The clues were the words "Security engineers" and "Intelligence Enforcement"....



    The label on the back says everything. The best about this power supply is that it's made locally here in Australia, which means that it would be easier to find parts (I think) if anything inside it died.

    Um.... It says "Device not user accessible", well they are wrong because I accessed it by opening a few screws and connecting some wires into the correct ports. I think it's probably a message to scare people from opening it up.

    Thanks.

      WHAT..... Made In Australia!!!!!!!
      that wont last long it will be China soon I'll bet ya

      Well maybe they source from OS and them put the label on it here.

      There is still some stuff made here but it seems to be twiddling as more move to China for production...
      sadly for us work wise good I suppose price wise...

      Yes mate its to scare people

        If you want to adjust the output of the supply just turn V1.

          Is V1 a POT or voltage adjustment knob? I can see something at position V1 that allows a screwdriver to spin it.

            Yes its a voltage adjustment POT.

            Some supplies have them and some don't.

            Different manufacturers install this POT in different parts of the circuit:

            The POT is located in the feedback path which controls the duty cycle of the switching MOSFET thus dropping the output voltage.

            Or

            They are connected to the voltage regulator IC which your supply has and the IC regulates the higher voltage after it comes out of the transformer so the output from the regulator is lower.

            From my experience open frame supplies mostly have them enclosed desktop supplies usually do not.

            The range they can adjust varies but it could definately get the voltage closer to 12V then it is at now.

              I must revise my last post.

              Looking at the picture again it seems that someone tampered with the pot and raised the voltage. If you look closely there is red glue that has been separated from the part of the pot that rotates and the body.

              This glue is put here so the POT stays put in shipping and doesn't shift causing the voltage to go high or low.

              That explains why the output voltage isn't 12 volts as stated.

              That makes me completely confident that the POT can get the voltage regulators output back to 12 volts.

              Just measure with your DMM and turn the pot until you get 12 volts done.

                AOC 27 monitor Q27G2WG4 doesn't display logo or image on screen
                by 3D Modelka
                Hello. I have a problem with my AOC 27 monitor, specifically model Q27G2WG4, which I have been using for 3 years. The monitor stopped turning on: when I turn it on, the backlight turns on, the indicator starts glowing white, but the logo on the screen does not appear, and there is no image. However, if I check in the Windows system, the monitor is displayed as connected and working. I tried connecting it via HDMI and DP, but the result remains the same. If I turn the monitor on and off multiple times, it will eventually start and work. However, when the monitor is working, there are no issues....

                Hanns.G Hi221 Monitor - Works For A Second & Then Blank Display
                by RetroComputingGrotto
                I've got a Hanns.G Hi221 Monitor that works for a moment and then the display goes off but the power LED indicator remains on. If you power it off and back on again it does the same thing, it comes on and then the display goes blank. From a cold start it takes 10 seconds or so before the display goes blank but if you turn it off and then back on again after it already being on it goes blank a lot quicker so I'm assuming something is getting hot which is causing the display to go off.

                I've uploaded a video of it happening on YouTube:

                Fujitsu monitor: power is there, but no image from PC
                by jvelez
                Hi, seeking for guidance on the following:
                I have a Fujitsu Siemens monitor T19-1 (base model is C19-1) that stopped showing any picture, besides the FS logo when it boots.

                I'm attaching a picture of the system board with some additional info.
                - The monitor recognizes the presence of the VGA signal: the power button switches from amber to blue, and vice-versa when the computer goes sleeping.
                - The inverter + CCFL seems to be working fine: the Fujitsu-Siemens logo appears when the monitor is switched on.
                - I measured the values in the power regulators:...

                MSI Optix Monitor--Functional but no image
                by DoorOfTime
                I just picked up this MSI Optix MAG271C curved monitor. It powers on, backlight comes on and it's recognized by Windows--even as far as to be able to use the speaker port for music. It recognizes input changes, and goes into standby as intended when disconnected.

                But it has no image whatsoever. On power-up it goes through what should be an "MSI" splash screen, but no image, and when hooked up as a secondary monitor I can drag items across my extended display with no change as it reaches the blank monitor.


                Does this sound like behavior that can be...

                Asus G15 5980HX - 6800M - No Display on Laptop - HDMI/Display Port external monitor works fine. Fried Component.
                by amuse619
                Hello!
                Looks like I fried something when my EDP cable got squeezed on the hinge. I replaced the cable but still no display. Laptop works fine with external monitor connected through HDMI and Display Port-USB C port. I took it apart and I see a burnt component. Can anyone help me identify what this component is? I tried to use schematics for another G15 but it does not match on the amount of pins and size. I attached pictures. The component has a label on it - (21A29)

                Laptop is a Asus G15 Advantage Edition 2021 Laptop Ryzen 9 5980HX - 6800M...
