Abstract:
Information is expressed in the form of pulses which are arranged in accordance with the equation: Mn xn+T wherein: n is the code number, M is the quantity of pulses per code number, T is the negative tolerance of pulse count, and x is the sum of one plus the positive tolerance and the negative tolerance of pulse count.
Abstract:
In a recording oscillograph, apparatus for automatically recording on the oscillograph paper, and simultaneously with the recording thereon of one or more galvanometer traces, an indication of a selected control setting of an adjustable operative condition of the oscillograph. In an oscillograph which is provided with apparatus for applying timing lines on the moving paper, a preferred embodiment includes transparent indicia corresponding to various timing line intervals serially arranged in an opaque member, and a shutter member is driven in a light path synchronously with the driven opaque member such that only one of the timing indicia is projected onto the moving paper during a revolution of the opaque member, while preventing the projection of the others of the timing indicia during that cycle. Means responsively connected to the timing line control means automatically adjusts the phase relationship of the rotating shutter with respect to the rotating opaque member, so that the projected one of the timing indicia corresponds to the selected setting of the timing line control means.
Abstract:
Apparatus for projecting one of at least two grid line patterns onto a moving oscillographic photosensitive record medium, without removing an included grid screen from the oscillograph. The opaque grid screen is characterized by a first plurality of transparent indicia arranged such that the light projected therethrough onto the moving surface produces thereon a first plurality of line images in predetermined spaced relation, in addition to a second plurality of transparent indicia arranged such that the light projected therethrough onto the moving surface produces thereon a second plurality of line images a predetermined number of which are disposed between successive ones of the line images of the first plurality and in predetermined spaced relation therewith. Shutter means associated with the opaque screen is provided for alternatively preventing and permitting light to be projected through the second plurality of indicia onto the moving surface, thereby permitting either the line images of both pluralities, or the line images of only the first plurality, to be recorded on the photosensitive surface.
