from the DX6 board.
Remove the jumper (H) from connector X302 on the DX6 board.
5. DANGER! Only use fully insulated measuring wires.
Connect the digital multimeter with the measuring wires to test points
MA- (X5-) and MA+ (X4+) at connector X302 on the DX6 board.
6. On the multimeter, select the current measuring range 20mA DC.
7. NOTICE! If the lid of the tube assembly cover is not attached, the ring

1 mA corresponds to a tube current of 1 mA. The permissible tolerance
is ± 20 %.
Analyzing measurements
➢ Read the voltage value on the display of the multimeter.
The tube current must be 8mA ± 1.6mA.
If the measured value is
