4. Protections:
a. Under voltage protection.
If an under voltage fault occurs, the supply will latch all DC outputs into a
shutdown state when +12V,+5V & +3.3V outputs under 60% of its maximum
value.
b. Over voltage protection
Output Minimum Nominal Maximum Unit
+12 VDC 13.4 15.0 17 Volts
+5 VDC 5.70 6.3 7.0 Volts
+3.3 VDC 3.70 4.2 4.8 Volts
c. Short circuit
An output short circuit is defined as any output impedance less than 0.1 ohms.
The power supply shall shut down and latch off for shorting the +3.3 VDC,+5
VDCor+12 VDC rails. Shorts between main output rails and +5VSB shall not cause
any damage to the power supply. The power supply shall either shut down and
latch off or fold back for shorting the negative rails.+5VSB must be capable of
being shorted indefinitely, but when the short is removed, the power supply shall
recover automatically or by cycling PS_ON#. The power supply shall be capable of
withstanding a continuous short-circuit to the output without damage or
overstress to the unit.
d. Over-power protection
The power supply will be shut down and latch off when output power is
110%~150%

7. Precautions:
Warning! To avoid the risk of electrical shock, unauthorized persons need the
following precautions:
a. Do not open the power supply case!
b. Before turning on, please make sure that the input voltage of the red RMS side
switch on the power supply corresponds to the power voltage given in your
environment.
(USA & Canada: 115V; Europe, Central and South America: 230V).
c. Avoid exposure to humidity.

10.Troubleshooting:
If power supply fails to operate properly, please check the following before requesting
for an RMA:
a. Please make sure the power supply and power cord are connected properly.
b. Please make sure the power cord is plugged into the power socket.
c. Please make sure the power supply I/O button is switched to the “ I ” position.
d. Please check if all the connectors (motherboard, floppy and peripherals) are
connected properly.
e. Please allow 5 seconds interval before turning the power on again when power
supply is switched off manually (setting the I/O switch to the “ O ” position)
