[Simh] VT240, VT340 and DS200/300 HW specs info

All of the discussion about DS200 and DS300 terminal servers has reminded
me that I have a DECserver 200 with a faulting power supply that I have
been meaning to fix.

Does anyone know what DC voltage(s) the power supply should generate and
what DC current is drawn. The hardware installation guide for the DECserver
200 gives the AC current drawn from the mains, but it is silent about the
DC voltages and currents.

Any help appreciated.
