50 V

This is the typical DC (+) output voltage waveform generated from a properly operat- ing machine. Note that each vertical division represents 50 volts and that each horizontal division represents 2 milliseconds in time.

Note: Scope probes connected at machine

output terminals: (+) probe to electrode, (–) probe to work.

0 V
