I have a VXT-2000. It is broke. If I could find out what the voltage
and current requirements were and their positions on the power connector
I would replace it in a heartbeat.
For the VXT-2000 with an H7109-B the rated voltage and current values
are printed right on the power supply label:
+5.1V, 7.81A
+12.1V, 0.62A
-12.1V, 0.46A
-9V, 0.2A

The mystery is the White wire. The power supply label only lists 4
output voltages. The White wire appears to be routed to the Ethernet
daughter board. The measured voltage appears that it might be floating
slightly negative, somewhere around -1.5V when the Ethernet daughter
board is installed and around -5V when it is removed. Maybe it is a
high impedance earth ground connection? It appears to be connected to
the shield of the Ethernet BNC, which measures around 1M-Ohm to the
chassis ground when the power supply is disconnected from the main
board, and around 0.75M-Ohm when the power supply is connected.
Thank you for that. Mine has no labels or anything. It is PC Board
with Digital, Side 1, Side 2 and a number I don't recognize on it.
I guess the -9V is the only odd one but you could easily get that
from a -12V line. I may get to fix it yet.
