摘要:
A device for the continuous and automatic transmission and indication of the elevation coordinate at a cartographic location in a stereoscopic apparatus to an indicating device associated with a map, and wherein the measured value is introduced to a first motor by means of a commutator disc with contact plates. The motor is coupled to the indicating device and follows exactly the measured value from the commutator disc in both directions, the indicated value on the indicating device being printed upon a map by means of a second motor after closure of a switch.

A line concentrator with m incoming telegraph lines, each adapted to carry messages on any of n different frequency channels, includes a selector which cyclically scans all the m.n available signal paths by successively exploring all the channels of the first line, all the channels of the second line and so on, the switchover from one path to the next proceeding in response to stepping pulses from a timing stage under the control of an associated monitoring stage. With some of the signal paths programmed for the reception of messages thereover whereas others are maintained idle, the timing stage transmits to the monitoring stage an enabling signal whenever the selector advances onto a programmed path whereby a message arriving over such path is directed to a multiplex receiver which detects a start and stop code to send a termination signal to the timing stage which thereupon steps the selector. A train of clock pulses, supplied to the timing stage, causes the immediate emission of a stepping pulse to advance the selector if the path is not programmed, and also generates such a stepping pulse in response to a malfunction or nonutilization signal from the monitoring unit produced upon prolonged persistence of the same voltage level on a programmed path.

A dynamic range of decoding PAM signals is divided into a plurality of ranges by decoding the range of the plurality of ranges which is required to have the highest precision with a number of bits less than the number of bits of PCM input signals to provide an output signal. Bias voltage is applied to the output signal to decode the other ranges of the plurality of ranges.

In order to obtain fast and simple processing of a recieved page address (65, 67, 69) into a write command (95) for a multi-page memory (99) of a teletext processing circuit, a page-number memory (81) is used which can be addressed by the received page address and in which a write command for the multi-page memory is stored for the desired pages.
摘要:
A dot-type printer has heretofore been unable to output characters of the pitch which does not coincide with multiples of the dot-width by integers when such dot-width is either electrically or mechanically fixed, causing considerable errors and not being in compliance with the recommendation of CCITT. The system according to the present invention provides a means to obtain the distance between a character and a printing reference point and to output the character at a position which is separated from the reference point by the distance in a multiple of the dot-width by an integer and which is either immediately before or after the point of the distance thus obtained. By such output control, the character outputted can remain within the range recommended by CCITT with only negligible errors.
摘要:
A thermal message printer for printing a wide block of text which is produced with low cost printheads. The printer includes a thermal printer having a first number of fixed printheads equal in number to the lines to be printed on thermographic paper. Each of the fixed printheads has a second number of dot elements which are energized in a column fashion according to a pattern of dots to be energized from a matrix of dots for each of the characters. Control means are included for sequentially energizing selected ones of the dot heads in order to form the series of characters such that a wide block of text is printed.
摘要:
A thermal line printer includes a semiconductor chip for control of A .times. N heaters arrayed in N groups past which thermally sensitive paper is stepped B times in printing a line of characters in an A .times. B dot matrix. A sequential access memory stores N multibit words, one word for each character to be printed on a given line with a commutator cyclically to read words from the memory A .times. B times for each line to be printed. A ROM has an A .times. B dot matrix code therein for each available character. A time sequencer and decoder connected to the ROM is synchronized with the commutator to produce a different one bit output from the ROM each time each given word is read from memory. A set of N enable circuits leads from the ROM to N groups of heaters. A set of A enable circuits leads from the sequencer to A groups of heaters where one heater in each A group is from one of the N groups. A decoder interfaces the sequencer to the A groups of heaters and to the motor sequentially to enable the heaters in one A group for each memory cycle and in order through the A columns and B rows of the matrix.
