There are three power supplies in the bottom of the cabinet. One is an enclosed screw terminal dual output (+5v @ 6A, +12v @ 3A) which provides power to both the cpu board and the LCD display. Another enclosed screw terminal power supply provides power to the coils (48v @ 12 amps). The smallest power supply is a "laptop" style which provides power to the cabinet audio amplifier mounted near the cashbox.
