SECTION 1

1.1 Introduction

This service manual is divided into three major
sections: A) Circuit Descriptions, 8) Trim Pro-
cedures, and C) Board Test Points. The circuit
descriptions should be consulted when a problem is
suspected in a particular area of the instrument.
The trim procedures should be used to verify cali-
brations or when a component has been changed.
The board test points are a quick reference to verify
circuits with suspected problems and should be
checked whenever a problem has been identified.

1.2 Board Identification

Three types of Odyssey models have been produced:
I) 2800, 2) 28102815 and 3) 2820-2823. The model
and serial number are located at the rear or bottom
of the Odyssey chassis. Except for 2800, a typical
number might read: 2813-0490. For model 2800,
the first two digits of the serial number denote the
model, such as: 28490. Listed below are the board
identification numbers for each model; they will be
referenced in the service manual by model number
for easy identification.
