Nick,
1st the A 600 has 5 pins in it you need 4 pins for the +/4. I am sure that
the pins are not in the same exact placement.
Your White lead has the +5V and green is ground return.
The +/4 power connector is pin-ed out notch at top pins 3 and 4 either side of
the notch are the 10.6 VAC (9VAC nominal) Pin 2 is ground and Pin one (bottom
right on the pins as you face the power supply cable -bottom left facing the
+/4 case). You can double check that the lower left pin has continuity to the
power switch near in through the Filter Choke L1.
