Folks,
I recently acquired an empty PDP-8/m case that was empty of boards. The rest of the case is intact(ish), backplane, power supply, fans. There is no front panel, only a red plastic insert, and the keylock is just sitting inside the case (still wired).
I am familiar with linear supply bringup, but this is my first really old switching supply.
After I get this all cleaned, are there any particular do’s or don’ts for bringing up and testing the supply? I popped open the back access panel to the supply, and it looks surprisingly clean.
