1.2 CONVENTIONS USED IN THIS MANUAL
Within the text, logic signals that are active low ("notted") will appear inside of slash marks, as illustrated below.
/BRHOK/
These signals are "active", or true, when the logic level is low. When the logic signal /BRHOK/ is low, the BRH
loop is "OK" (complete). When the logic signal /BRHOK/ is high, the BRH loop is not OK (open).
In most of the schematic diagrams such signals are indicated by the more usual solid line above the signal name,
as illustrated below.
The schematics in this manual do not include individual numbers for the logic elements or operational amplifiers
within a single component. For example, U1 below contains two operational amplifiers. The top op amp would
be referred to as U1-1 ( its output is pin 1), and the other would be referred to as U1-7.
