The invention relates to a microprocessor-based decoder board for an optical reader having in one embodiment a plurality of imaging modules that provide frames of image data having a plurality of formats. In one method for operating the decoder board of the invention, and a multiple imaging module reader comprising the decoder board, a frame of image data captured by a selected imaging module is decoded. The decoder board determines the format of the frame of image data from information about which of the plurality of imaging modules provided the frame of image data or from information about the frame of image data, activates as necessary a command to prepare the decoder board to decode the frame of image data according to the format provided by the imaging module, and performs the decoding.

摘要:
A multi-dimensional imaging device and method for automated exposure control that implement two distinct modules to control the exposure and gain settings in the imager so that processing can occur in a multi-tasking single CPU environment. The first module, referred to herein as the imager control module, controls the exposure and gain settings in the imager. The first module is typically implemented in a high priority routine, such as an interrupt service routine, to insure that module is executed on every captured frame. The second module, referred to herein as the histogram processing module, calculates a target contrast (the product of the targeted exposure and gain settings) based on feedback data from the first module and image data from memory. The second module is typically implemented in a low priority routine, such as a task level routine, to allow for the routine to be executed systematically in accordance with priority.

A one piece substantially rectangular corrugated paperboard blank is folded into a generally L-shaped container for packaging a chair. It includes back, side and lower front panels. Foldably attached to and partly separated from these panels and from each other are a panel and flaps for forming and reinforcing a lower top, an upper top and an upper front. These include a pair of flaps extending along the entire transversely disposed side edges of the lower top panel to strongly attach it to the side panels.

An improved method and device for capturing image data benefits from having a single central processor execute the operating system, and the image capture, decode and processing programs. A method for capturing of image data comprises transmitting image data from an imager, assembling the image data, assigning a memory address to the assembled image data and transferring the assembled image data into system memory. This method is capable of central processing whereby the capturing of image data is executed via the main processor without having to invoke a dedicated processor or incorporate external components, such as additional PCBs, external digital signal processing or external data storage. Additionally, an imaging device comprises an image builder module that receives image data from the imager bus and assembles the data, and a transfer controller that initiates the image builder module and controls the transfer of image data into and out of memory.

Data processing apparatus performs automatic hardware device identification and system setup in computer systems that have a Programmable Option Select (POS) feature, where the system includes multi-card adapters (adapters with attached daughter card(s)), and/or multi-card planar complexes (system boards with pluggable processor complexes and/or I/O risers). In particular, the apparatus uniquely identifies the aforementioned multi-card devices utilizing unique "combination type" POS IDs, where a combination type POS ID is a POS ID specifically preassigned to a combination of cards rather than to a single type of card. According to the invention, the unique combination type POS ID is partitioned across the combination of cards (for example, hardwired into each card). When the cards are combined, the partitioned ID is synthesized and becomes available to the system. The combination type ID may be used by the system to automatically identify and configure the multi-card device combination, perform diagnostics, etc., in the same manner that card type IDs are utilized to identify and configure individual feature cards in conventional systems supporting a POS type feature.

A register distributed across multiple single port adapters allows the system to operate the single port adapters identically to a single multi-port adapter. Each adapter has its own priority logic identical to the logic used on a multi-port adapter to select an individual port. The priority logic on the adapter allows the system to deselect one adapter and select another adapter in one operation. Each adapter has switch settings to allow selective control of individual bits on the system bus, which allows multiple adapters to respond to the processor simultaneously for different ports in the same manner as a multi-port adapter. By replying simultaneously, the system can use the same software to control two different hardware adapter types: single port, or multi-port.
摘要:
An octagonal tray and one-piece blank for forming it. The tray is formed from corrugated paperboard and is provided on at least its interior bottom and wall surfaces with a wax coating. The tray includes vertically disposed posts at its end walls, the posts increasing the vertical stacking strength of the tray and also reducing the requirement that the trays be accurately vertically aligned when stacked one on top of the other. The tray is manually erected by folding along hinge or fold axes formed in the blank. Crushed ice is placed among and on fish or poultry within the tray for example, with the tray then being lidded for shipment.
