TYPICAL OUTPUT VOLTAGE WAVEFORM - MACHINE LOADED TO 200 AMPS

DC - TIG MODE

HIGH VOLTAGE/ HIGH FREQUENCY can damage test equipment.

Perform all voltage and waveform checks with high frequency circuit OFF.

Perform High Frequency Disable Procedure.

	0V
20V	5 ms

This is the typical AC output voltage waveform generated from a properly operating machine. Note that each ver- tical division represents 20 volts and that each horizontal division represents 5 milliseconds in time.

NOTE: Scope probes connected at

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

NOTE: AC balance control set at “Balanced” position.
