includes
recommended

of
operation,
and
troubleshooting
information which includes safety considerations, service aids, block diagrams, and
schemat
ic
diagrams. This

Overall
Functional Block Diagram, Figure 8-2.
Immed

is
the
detailed
circuit
theory
,
presented
in
numerical
order
by
assembly reference designator (

etc.) and refer-
encing
the
respective schematic diagrams.

Troubles
hoo
ting
fo
r the 5315A/ B
is
performed by selectively isolating and ve
rif
ying
the
proper
operation of
the
various circuit sections. This
is
accomplished
in
an indicated sequence,
through
a series of seven test procedures, k
eyed

TEST
EQUIPMENT
8-9. The test
equipment
and accessories required to maintain the 5315

other
than that listed may
be
used
if
it
meets or
excee
ds the critical
specifications.

shows
the
sy
mbo
ls
used
on
th
e
schematic
diagrams,
Figure 8-1 al
so
shows
the
method
for assigning reference designators, assembly numbers, and subassembly
numbe

s.
8-12. Reference Designati
ons
6-13. Assemblies such
as
printed circuit
board
s are
ass
igned numbers
in
sequence,
A 1,
A2,
etc.,
as
shown
in
Table 8-1.
As
shown
in
Figure 8-1, subassemblies within an assembly are given a s
ub-
ordinate A
numb
er. For example, rectifier subassembly
Al,
h
as
the
complete designator A 15Al.
For indivi
dua
l
compo
nents, the
complete
designator is
determined
by
adding
the
assembly
number
and subassembly number,
if
any. For example, CRl
on
the rectifier assemb
ly
is
desig-
nated
A2SA
lCR1.
