| a. Switch the POWER SUPPLIES to ON, the yellow light should come on. Switch CHAIN MOTORS to ON, lights 1, 2, and 3 should all come on. Begin to increase the CHARGING VOLTAGE while observing the TERMINAL VOLTAGE and the GRID VOLTAGE. DO NOT allow the GRID VOLTAGE to become more negative than -10 VDC. | a.

| - | c. When current is present on the LE and HE Slit current meters you may then switch the Control Mode to AUTO (middle position) and the SLIT control light should illuminate. If there is instability in slit control you may try raising the CONTROL GAIN more. | + | c.

When current is present on the LE and HE Slit current meters you may then switch the Control Mode to AUTO (middle position) and the SLIT control light should illuminate. If there is instability in slit control you may try raising the CONTROL GAIN more. If the slit currents are not balanced when in slit control, make slight adjustments in the CHARGING VOLTAGE to balance the slit currents. |
