I have been supplied with an SEM01 along with a new 15VDC switch mode power supply (separate purchases !).
Upon booting up i found it did not work. I received a replacement from CBUS shop that did not work!
Upon closer inspection the SEM pcb has \"DC15V\" imprinted on the pcb. DC being polarity sensitive it also has \"+ve and -ve\".
It appears that the output of the transformer was wired the wrong way around on the transformer lead.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am assuming that the new switch mode power supply 15V DC output will replace in its entirety the old 14VAC transformer.
Although the new switch mode power supply is ( I believe) backward compatible. The old transformer will NOT then feed the new DC15V pcb ( as it is 14V AC output ).
CAN SOME ONE PLEASE CONFIRM IF THE NEW CPU WILL EVENTUALLY USE THE SAME DC15V CIRCUIT AS THE NEW SEM - IF SO THEN ANY C1 UPGRADE WILL REQUIRE NEW SWITCH MODE POWER SUPPLY TO BE FITTED.
