Powerbar Question

--- Quote from: Eddie_Brock on August 20, 2010, 03:20:37 pm ---I have used my multimeter to determine that all of the primary and always-on plugs are working fine, and the secondary plugs are getting 0v, indicating to me that it's not switching them on.
Because I've chopped off the plug and hardwired the powerbar into my cabinet, it's not an easy switch over. It would be somewhat easier to buy a SATA adaptor and use my old PSU.
Before I go that far, how likely is it that if I open up the powerbar, I'll find an adjustment inside?

I appreciate all the feedback.  :applaud:

I would first try a higher wattage device in the control outlet to see if the smart strip still works as gryhnd said.

Update: I got it to work. The reset button seems to be a bit wonky. Once I got that to work it seems fine. Another thing is that I wasn't being patient enough. On the old pc, the secondary devices would come on immediately, now they come on a bit later (which actually helps hide the BIOS screen)

All is well, thanks to everyone for the suggestions.  :cheers:
