NORMAL OPEN CIRCUIT VOLTAGE WAVEFORM

CONSTANT VOLTAGE MIG

MAXIMUM OUTPUT SETTING – NO LOAD

0 volts

50 volts

2 ms

This is the typical DC open circuit voltage waveform generated from a properly operating machine. Note that each vertical division represents 50 volts and that each horizontal divi- sion represents 2 milliseconds in time.

Note: Scope probes connected at

machine output terminals: (+) probe to positive terminal, (-) probe to neg- ative high inductance terminal.

SCOPE SETTINGS

Volts/Div	50V/Div.
Horizontal Sweep	2 ms/Div.
Coupling	DC
Trigger	Internal
