Go Ahead and Laugh at Me

The last thing I need to do is screw up a brand new power supply that goes to a CD transport. But the manual doesn't specifically tell me. Online hits about voltage selector switches don't specify it either.

If you push the selector in one direction it reads 230V. Push it the other way and it reads 115V. So do I want the number in the window or do I want to move the selector toward the desired voltage? I mean, geez... šŸ™

You want to see the number 115 v if in North AmericaĀ 

that being said if you put on 230 v it just would not work the dual voltage windingsĀ 

are looking for 230 vĀ 

in reverse if you were in Europe and plugged in at 115 v you may fry a board for you would be getting 2 x as much voltage , depending too what you had for safety inside ,if you had a thermister it would heat up and trip the circuit open Ā if the fuse didnot , if just a fuse you could fry the board.
