adjust the Variable Time/cm control to obtain a stable
display of several overlapping waveforms. Adjust the out­
put voltage divider compensations C7655 and C8655 for
best square leading corner at the bottom side of the square
wave. The capacitors should be adjusted in equal incre­
ments so they will be at approximately the same physical
setting. Fig. 5-6 shows typical appearance of waveforms
when C7655 and C8655 are not correctly adjusted. When
adjustments are set correctly, the waveform should look
like Fig. 5-5. Set the Mode switch to A O N LY. Disconnect
the signal from the B input connector and connect it to the
A input. Check to see if C7655 and C8655 are adjusted
to give the best possible square leading corner at the top
of the displayed square waves.

the two displays. Keep the capacitors at approximately
the same physical settings in relation to each other.

14. Turret Attenuator Compensation
Place the A VOLTS/CM control to the .1 position. Set
the oscilloscope Time/cm switch to .5 millisec. Decrease the
square-wave generator frequency to 1 kc and adjust the
generator output amplitude for approximately 3.5 cm de­
flection on the crt. Adjust the SERIES trimmer for the most
nearly square corner on the leading edge. Then adjust the
SHUNT trimmer to make the flat tops of the waveform as
level as possible. Recheck the SERIES adjustment for the best
square leading corner. Set the attenuator to the next posi­
tion. Continue in this manner until the rest of the attenu­
ator positions have been adjusted.
adjust the generator output amplitude to keep about 3.5
cm of deflection for each position of the attenuator as long
as sufficient output can be obtained. Remove the "L" pad
for more amplitude during the higher attenuation posi­
tions of the turret. After completing all the turret adjust­
ments, check each position again to see if any " touching
up" is necessary. Place the turret attenuator in its most
clockwise position and remount the outer knob to read .05.
Disconnect the signal from the A input connector and
apply it to the B input connector. Set the Mode switch to
— B O N LY and repeat the above procedure to adjust the
B VOLTS/CM attenuator compensation. Disconnect the gen­
erator cable, " L" pad, and capacitance standardizer.
