    摘要: A bowling center system includes a plurality of lane pair control systems each including a pinsetting device for each lane, a pinsetter control unit, a game control unit, a bowler input station and a pair of overhead display monitors. The game control unit is operable under the control of a game control program stored in a memory for automatically operating the pinsetter control units during game play to selectively set a sequence of pin patterns on the lane, which patterns may comprise any array of pins. The game control unit responsive to pin fall data received from the gamesetter generates scoring information which is displayed using video graphic displays on the overhead monitors. The game control program can be any one of a plurality of different game programs which may be downloaded to the memory from a memory associated with the manager's control terminal. According to the particular game program, the number of bowling frames the game may vary as well as the number of balls and pins utilized in each frame. The manager's control system provides accounting control over the bowling center system and is operable to override operation of a selected game control unit as necessary. A plurality of remote terminals are provided associated with selected ones of said lane pair control systems. Each remote terminal system includes a keyboard and a display monitor. The remote terminal operates under the control of the game control unit to allow a user thereof to enter requests for video displays. The video displays include, for example, ball trajectory displays which illustrate the path of the ball on the bowling lane, or dynamic displays, such as for training, generated by video source devices associated with the manager's control system.

    摘要: An automatic fine tuning defeat circuit disables the application of an automatic fine tuning or automatic frequency control correction voltage to the voltage-controlled tuners of a television receiver during switching from one channel to another. The tuning voltage for a selected channel is coupled in series with the automatic frequency control voltage to provide a composite tuning voltage for the tuners. During a channel change, a switch is rendered conductive to shunt or short-circuit the output of the automatic frequency control circuit, thereby rendering its output ineffective for control of the tuners during channel change. Upon completion of the channel change, the automatic frequency control circuit output voltage again is applied in series with the tuning voltage to form the composite tuning voltage for the tuners.

    摘要: A memory system for use in a text entry system is provided. The system includes a retentive data memory and a system for locking a portion of the retentive memory and a key for unlocking the lockable portion of the memory to allow a predetermined number of bits of data to be written to the memory when the lockable memory is in unlocked state. The system automatically locks the memory after the predetermined number of bits have been written into the lockable portion of memory.

    摘要: There is disclosed a computer system including a storage means such as a random access memory (RAM) for receiving data to be displayed upon a display means, e.g. a color cathode ray tube, a microprocessor for control of the computer system operations, and viewer input devices such as a control stick or keyboard, whereby the viewer may respond selectively to the data displayed upon the display means. A limited capacity storage unit, illustratively in the form of a tape cassette, stores data in the form of a program for permitting the viewer to store useful material in the form of a repository, such as a Christmas list; the program to be displayed by the display means can assume any of a limitless number of programs and may be adapted to an exceptionally wide range of uses for the home, office or school. The computer system permits the viewer to respond as through the input devices, to the material being displayed, whereby subsequent material may be effected. To effect a variety of operations, the computer system includes a record/read device for receiving the storage unit, whereby the stored data thereon may be read out and stored in the RAM for subsequent use by the computer system. In this regard, graphic material to be displayed upon the display means is stored in select locations in the RAM to be selectively read out, dependent upon the image to be displayed. Further, there is included a second storage means in the form of a read-only memory (ROM) for storing utility sub-routines, whereby various operations of the computer system may be controlled.
