Question about reading schematics (pic inside)

Ok. I'm totally self taught, so I learn as I go. Now, I'm trying to learn and understand schematic nomenclature. If anyone has a link to a glossary or a tutorial on schematic symbols and conventions and the like, it would sure be appreciated.

For now, I have specific questions about this schematic in particular:



It's a video amp board (composite) for a ColecoVision.

Now, I understand the triangle is the IC, and I can spot the resistor symbols, and the capacitor symbols. My question is about the crossing lines. An example is pin 4 from the IC, which leads to the negative terminal of the C2 capacitor, and pin 2, which seems to lead to the negative end of the C1 27pf capacitor. The wire from pin 4, and the wire from pin 2 seem to cross on their way to their destinations. Does that mean they literally connect at that junction on the schematic? Does the green colour mean they do not connect at that point in the diagram?


Also, if I am making any mistaken assumptions on the meanings so far, please correct me. I'm here to ask about schematics conventions, not to stroke my ego.

Thanks for any help shared!

I see Jeff is reading this too, so probably will be a redundant response.

If the lines cross and there's a dot, then they intersect. If they cross and there's no dot, then they do not intersect.

I thought maybe, as I noticed the dots elsewhere.

Cool, and thanks!

BTW, I sent a guy looking for a Duo AV- region mod your a few days ago way D-Lite.

Remember the name? I got a couple e-mails, but seems no replies from the people after I sent info.

I can second what D-Lite said, I have to read schematics at work.

No. It was a guy who called my business number (see my sig), and he's from Ohio.

The more who know the better. I think he's wondering how I do business. He asked me about an AES mod, and I referred him to Jeff, since they were both in Ohio. Then he called a couple of weeks later, asking about Duo region and AV mods. I can do the region thing, but I don't know enough to design circuits (yet!), but I can copy them. I told him you designed a kickass circuit, and were in the US as well, so he may as well go to the source. How do I do business if I keep referring to others?

It's simple, for some things, it's best to go to the source, especially when the source is closer than I am. It's all about the customer getting what he needs.
