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
