Hello all!
It has been quite some time since I posted last.
I have what I hope is a simple question:
I have a up-200ps1 power supply. I has two 120vac outputs. Does this power supply have an isolation transformer on the AC output side? Can I power a WG monitor with it? I have a WG K7401, 7302 & 7191 I would like to power off this PSU.
Thank you!

the peter chou supply does not work this way. (nor any arcade supply for that matter.)
it is to simply supply power to your game boards.
you'd still need an isolation transformer.
-
Thank you for the response. I figured as much but was hoping I could power both the board and monitor.

some "peter chou" supplies have a switched passthrough for powering other things (lights etc) and COULD be used to power a monitor, but it is just as it sounds... a passthough of power from the outlet that is switched on at the same time as the power supply.
you'd still need an isolation transformer should your monitor require one.

Thanks for the input! Yes, that is my plan. Wire up an isolation transformer to the switched outlet on the side of the power supply.

How about some pictures of your power supply showing all the cables it has?
