2. Change the time/div on the 11801B to 5 ns/div.
3. Adjust R16 so that the wave crosses the horizontal center line one division before the
4. Slowly adjust pot R57 and observe its effect on the first 15 ns of the waveform.
5. Adjust R57 so the rising edge falls back and crosses the horizontal center line one
6. Change the time/div on the 11801B to 2 ns/div.
7. Now adjust pot R1, and observe the ledge that occurs within the first 2 ns of the

position the ledge on the center line while keeping it as flat as possible. You want to
achieve the best combination of flatness and position.
As you make these adjustments, make sure the peak remains between 4 ns and 6 ns.
It is possible to achieve a very flat ledge close to the horizontal center, but if the
peak is too high or too low, then the aberrations will not be properly adjusted.
