Glad you had success.

Retired Ed- It worked! Thanks again!
220 is two 110 wires with a ground. There isn't a neutral wire. The wires don't care what color they are, but you do

mkepler954 If this works, you saved me over 100 smackers!
Hope it works out OK for you. There's a few variations of that socket that the main cord plugs into on the back of the unit. I hope the one they send is the right one. I have dozens of those things around from all the old computers and audio equipment I've scrapped over the years.
A little screw driver should be able to flip that input selector to 110 for you. I suppose to be in complete compliance you should change the fuse to an 8 amp from a 5 amp but I don't think it's really that necessary. Keep some 8 amp fuses around if it ever decides to blow.
Let us know how you make out.

M/N is PS30SWVIII. The selector switch is on the bottom. I just ordered the power cord you mentioned. If this works, you saved me over 100 smackers! I can't thank you enough!

A- Which model is it? Some are switchable with a 110/220 V selector on the rear panel (some models it is on the bottom).
B- Is the power cord plugged into the rear of the unit using an IEC connector similar to what a PC power supply uses? You can simply substitute a North American grounded cord and switch the input to 110V.
There is a noise offset control that can be adjusted to eliminate pulse noise from the power supply. Ripple is less than 100 mVpp at load. Input is 110 or 220 V AC, switch selectable from the rear panel.

Good Luck, Ed
I purchased an QJE switching mode DC regulated power supply. Unbenosed to me, it was a 220V PS rather than 110V. Is there any step-up adapters Im can buy?
The 220V cord has 3 flat pins. The top one is verticle and the 2 bottom one are slanted inwards at the bottom.
