11. Observe the oscilloscope. You should see a trace similar to Figure 3-18, alternat-
ing pulses, approximately 4ms in duration, with a peak amplitude of 14V and
10V respectively (corresponding to 140kVp and 100kVp inside the tank).

If the scope trace seen is not as shown in either Figure 3-17 or Figure 3-18, the system
may have insufficient AC power, a faulty X-ray Controller, or defective Tank.
