2.) Normal rail voltage should only be used to test for dielectric breakdowns. Turn on one side (cath-
ode/anode) at a time, since the bang-bang circuit was not designed for accurate KV loop control.
3.) High potting the tube is very dangerous if not done correctly, even with the HVDC bus set to
test mode.

Diagnostic Description
This diagnostic sequentially enables the fiber optic drivers to the KV inverters.

When (to use)


1.) KV values drop as the mA increases.
2.) Suspect bad fiber-optic connection.
3.) Verification that all fiber optic connections are not miss wired.

What (to look for)


Verify LEDs located on the KV inverters are enabled in the correct sequence.
