CHECKING THE GATE PULSES
a. Before attempting to measure the gate pulses to the IGBTs, it is essential to
disconnect the power supply from rectifier unit AP03.
DTE 255: Switch off the machine and remove wir es 090 and 007 from
rectifier unit AP03. See the wiring diagram on page 12.
DTE 200: Switch off the machine and remove wir es 090 and 007 from
rectifier V02. Mark the heat sink with a + where wire 007 is connected to
V02, before disconnecting. See the wiring diagram on page 14.
b. Disconnect AP11 and AP12 from AP01 and connect a gate load (4.7
33nF) to each gate output (circuit board AP01 connector XI:1--2 and
XI:4--5).
See the diagram on page 20 and the component positions on page NO TAG.
c. Connect the oscilliscope with its screen to XI:4 and the probe to XI:5,
alternatively with the screen to XI:1 and the probe to XI:2.
Set the machine to MMA mode and switch it on.
The pulse shapes must be as shown below.

d. Measure the following pulse parameters on both gate outputs:
S Frequency: 20kHz ±0.5kHz.
S Pulse time: 19--21ms measured at the 0V level.
S The voltage of the positive pulse must be 18 to 20V
The voltage of the negative pulse must be --9 to --15V
e. If the pulses are within the tolerances, the pulse driver circuits are OK.
NOTE: When reconnecting wires 007 and 090, make sure that wire 007 is
connected to the positive of the rectifier.
