摘要:
A fault injection circuit injects a test signal into a data bus with a normal high logic level and a normal low logic level. The test signal has a greater logic level greater than the normal high logic level of the data bus or a lower logic level lower than the normal low logic level of the data bus. An analog-to-digital converter is coupled to a voltage level detector for sensing an aggregate level of an aggregate signal on the data bus. The aggregate signal is composed of the termination circuit signal and the test signal. A diagnostic tool determines whether a faulty connection between the data bus and a network device exists, where the sensed aggregate level exceeds at least one of the normal high logic level and the normal low logic level.

A camera, used with photographic film, has a body having an exposure support surrounding an exposure opening. The body defines an encoder light path. An encoder is mounted in the body in alignment with the encoder light path. The encoder has an axis of rotation. The encoder has a marker occupying part of the encoder light path. The marker has a pair of subunits. The subunits are opposed relative to the axis of rotation. A drive is coupled to the encoder. The drive selectively rotates the encoder about the axis of rotation between a primary position and a plurality of secondary positions. The subunits are both disposed in the encoder light path in all of the positions.

An exposure count indicator for providing a visible indication of the number of frames that remain available to be exposed or are actually exposed on a filmstrip in a camera, comprises a numerical scale of successive exposure count indicia at least divided into an initial range of indicia that are evenly spaced from one another a particular distance and a remaining range of indicia that are evenly spaced from one another a different distance less than the particular distance the exposure count indicia that are in the initial range are spaced from one another, in order that when one views the respective indicia in the remaining range after all of the indicia in the initial range have been viewed it can serve as a warning that one is coming closer to the end of the filmstrip because the indicia in the remaining range are spaced apart a lesser distance than the indicia in the initial range. Preferably, a movable indicating element is supported for movement relative to the exposure count indicia to first operate as a pointer successively at the respective indicia in the initial range and then operate as a pointer successively at the respective indicia in the remaining range.

In a method and system for handling photofinishing customization data for a film unit having a unique identifier, a logical memory unit is allocated to the film unit. The logical memory unit is remote from the film unit. The logical memory unit has the identifier and a plurality of photofinishing parameters for the film unit. Changes in the photofinishing parameters are written in the logical memory unit from remote input.
摘要:
A photography system includes a plurality of film units and a remotely-accessed look-up table. The film units each have an access code that can be accessed independent of a filmstrip or digital image store. The look-up table has a read-write logical memory unit allocated to each of the film units. The logical memory units each have an access right secured by a respective access code. In a method, the access code is generated, the logical memory unit is allocated to the film unit, and the film unit is sold or otherwise transferred. The film unit is accompanied by the access code for that film unit.
摘要:
A method and system that handle user and producer photofinishing customization data for a film unit having a unique identifier. In the method, a user access code is generated. A logical memory unit is allocated to the film unit. The logical memory unit is remote from the film unit. The logical memory unit indicates the identifier. The logical memory unit has a user subunit and a producer subunit. The subunits are each independently writable and have separate access rights. The user access code, but not the producer access code, accompanies the film unit when it is sold or otherwise transferred.
摘要:
A method provides archival storage of information related to a photographic film unit having a local data memory. In the method, a logical memory is allocated to the film unit. The logical memory unit is physically remote from the film unit. Photofinishing parameters for the film unit are written to the logical memory unit for use by a photofinishing unit. The photofinishing parameters are also written to the local data memory. After an expiration of time, the logical memory unit is no longer maintained. A replacement logical memory unit can be later reallocated to the film unit and the information in the local data memory can be written to the replacement logical memory unit.

A camera comprises a slide manually movable in a forward direction and in a reverse direction; a spool drive member adapted to be connected to a film spool for driving rotation in a winding direction to windingly rotate the film spool to wind an exposed film onto the film spool; and a two-way coupling between the slide and the spool drive member to drivingly rotate the spool drive member in the winding direction in order to windingly rotate the film spool when the slide is manually moved in the forward and reverse directions.

A camera assemblage comprise a taking lens, a body section having a chamber and a front lens opening for the taking lens which is open to the chamber, and a light-baffle including a forward wall having an exposure opening and a plurality of baffle panels pivotably connected to the front wall for folding to fit the light-baffle into the chamber with the exposure opening behind the front lens opening. The forward wall is positioned to press the taking lens against the body section to clamp the taking lens within the chamber between the front lens opening and the exposure opening when the light-baffle is fit into the chamber.
摘要:
A camera comprising a cassette-receiving chamber for holding a film cassette provided with a light lock which is pivoted closed before removing the cassette from the chamber, is characterized in that an exterior opening to the chamber is positioned to longitudinally admit an implement into the chamber for rotation to pivot the light lock closed and to further admit the implement into the chamber to push the cassette out of the chamber.
