Sony RA-3B Service Manual page 176

All of the text within the service manual PDF is content searchable. This means that you can enter any text, word, phrase or reference number that
appears in the manual, and the PDF software will search, fi nd and move the cursor to the location where you requested text fi rst appears. This feature
can be particularly useful in locating components on a specifi c schematic or printed wire circuit board (PWB) diagrams.
Follow these steps to effectively locate a component on a schematic diagram:
1) Locate the schematic you want to search by clicking on the corresponding bookmark on the left side of the screen. The view on the right of the
screen will then jump to the desired schematic page.
2) Magnify the diagram to at least 400% before conducting a component search. This will enable you to easily view the reference number when
it is highlighted on screen. To do this, click on the magnifying glass button on the tool bar at the top of the screen. Move the cursor over the
diagram and RIGHT click you mouse. Select the 400% magnifi cation option on the pop-up menu. Click on the button with the icon of the open
hand to deactivate the magnifi cation tool
3) Search the diagram (or the entire manual) by clicking on the binocular button tool at the top of the screen. The "Find" window will appear and
allow you to type in your desired text. Type in a reference designator, such as R502, and click on the "Find" button. If the component is not on the
diagram, but is listed anywhere else in the manual, the cursor will jump to the fi rst location the text is found in the fi le. To fi nd another instance of
that same text, click on the binocular button again and select "Find Again."
