Christoph,

I saw your recent note on power supply problems.  It looks like
my 735(730) has suffered a similar failure in the recent blackout.
The symptoms appear similar to what you described a a couple of
years ago.  On power up, leds flash for 100-200 ms and then all
go out.

Did you replace the failed capacitor?  Adding a resistor between
the +Vaux line and the current sense line to compensate for leakage
between the -12V line and the current sense line seems like a
bit of a hack.

Do you have docs for the supply?

Dave
