I added "lift chair" to the title as many don't recognize the Okin name.

What is the model/part number of that supply ?
I'm familiar with the two pin but not the three pin system.

On edit:

That looks to be an Okin 6235 supply with possible battery backup
The voltage should be 24vdc.
Check between all three pins. Two of the pins should give you the +24vdc.

The model number of that adapter is 3.00.207.037.00
It is a dual output power supply..... 12 VAC and 25 VDC.

I marked a picture of your meter.
Put it into 300v AC and check between all the pins. You should find 12 vac between two pins.
Put it into 300v DC and check between all the pins. You should find 25 vdc between two pins.
(voltages are approx and may not be exact)

If one or both are not present..... then the supply is defective.

Black probe to the [Com]mon jack and red probe to the red volt jack. If measuring DC black (com) is negative and red positive. For AC polarity doesn't apply. The probes are interchangeable.

The red and black probes both get inserted into the plug. The metal shell is likely no connection.
