Title: Has anyone ever tried rewiring a DBV power supply to work with a WBA?
Post by: onesell on April 26, 2012, 08:40:35 AM
Hi all,

About 2 years ago I fitted a bill accepter called an NV200 made by Innovative Technology into some S+'s. The issue I had was that the existing power supply wasn't quite good enough to run it due to its age. I stripped the guts out of the power supplies box and replaced with a 4 1/2 amp power supply and rewired everything up. They have worked fine for the last 2 years and the customer now wants to do some more. The problem I have is I don't have enough WBA power supplies to be able to convert them so I was wondering if anyone had ever successfully rewired a DVB power supply to work with a WBA? If it could work with a WBA then I can get it working with the NV200. My first attempt hasn't gone to well. I have the bill accepter powered up but the machine won't enable it. The only part of the power supply that I have changed is the power unit itself, the harnessing is still original (well ish I have rewired it to match a WBA one). The only thing that I can put it down to is there is a little board that has 2 chips on it that is like a distribution board within the power supply.

Has anyone got any ideas?

Thank, Richard.

I've managed to sort it. IGT in there wisdom used the same colour wires but changed the job they were doing. A quick rewire and they are working. if anyone would like to know how to do it just let me know and I'll put it up on here.
