PREFACE

This new edition of the Sol Systems Manual contains many

revisions and additions.

Its release coincides with the release

of a new "2708" Personality Module,

and the Revision E version

of the main circuit board: Sol-PC.

The new "Sol-PC Rev E" has

several improvements:

resistors have been added which increase

the reliability of the cassette motor relays, jumper options have

been added, and traces moved to improve performance.

Many

improvements which had been accumulating as update information

have been integrated into the text.

Section VII, Operating

Procedures,

and Appendix 5,

IC Pin Configurations, are now

included.

A subsection,

Modification for 625 Line Video, has

been added.

If your copy is missing Section VIII, Theory of

Operation,

it will be available soon.

New divider pages with

plastic-coated tabs are included to make it easier to flip to

frequently referenced sections.

Much effort has gone towards making this manual complete

and accurate.

The process of updating and revision always

continues, however,

and we invite your input.

find an error,

If you should

documentation,

or have suggestions for improving any of our

please submit your suggestions in writing to our

Technical Documentation Department, and they will be given

thorough consideration.

The three-ring binder you are holding, is an "easel" binder.

The cover is hinged from side to side, as well as down the bind-
ing, so that it may form its own "easel" stand.

To use this

feature,

lay the manual open on a table.

Bend the full width of

the manual along the creased hinge,

until a resistance to further

bending is felt.

Then set the manual up on the table, with the

bottom of the pages down against the table, and the top inclining
away from you.

It is supported from falling by the portion of

the binder you have bent back.
free for building,

In this position your hands are

making measurements, or troubleshooting.

The first part of this manual you should read is at the

very end:

the Updates section.

Integrate this information into

your manual before you begin.
