Hi,
I am planning on using an ATX power supply in a kiosk type
application, and I am trying to figure out what to do with the power
switch.
The ATX power supply has a normal on/off AC switch, which is what I
would
like to use. However, this only puts the supply in standby mode.
The power switch on the front of a PC, pulls the PS_ON line to ground,
which
turns on the rest of the supply.
What I am not sure, is if I can keep the PS_ON line permanently tied
to ground,
or is it just a momentary input? Can it do any damage to the supply if
I keep it hardwired to ground?
Thanks,
Allen
