Does the AT-AO-10 Require +/- 12V and +5V for Power Like the AT-AO-6, or Just +5V?

Hardware: Legacy DAQ Devices>>Analog Output>>AT-AO-10

Problem: The documentation lists the following:

Power Requirements (from PC AT I/O Channel)

AT-AO-6
+5 VDC 0.6 A typical
+12 VDC 60 mA typical + load
-12 VDC 60 mA typical + load

AT-AO-10
+5 VDC 1.6 A typical

Is this a misprint on the AT-AO-10 section?

Solution: The AT-AO-10 has a DC to DC converter on it, so it only requires +5V for its power supply whereas the AT-AO-6 does need +5, +12, and -12 volts.
