This is the typical SCR gate pulse voltage waveform. The machine was in an open circuit condition (no load) and operating properly. Note that each vertical division represents 2 volts and that each horizontal division represents 5 milliseconds in time.

Note: Scope probes connected at SCR

gate and cathode: (+) probe to gate, (–) probe to cathode.
