Abstract
1297187 Electric selective signalling; data transmission PITNEY BOWES-ALPEX Inc 24 July 1970 [8 Aug 1969] 36062/70 Heading G4H In a data transmission system where a number of remote stations are connected over individual data links to a central station, remote stations transmit on a TDM basis, and in each time slot send a single character in response to a poll signal, the central station having a message register for each station, into which a return message is inserted character by character which the computer composes as a result of the data forwarded to the central station from a remote station, a message once compiled is transmitted to the respective remote station continuously in successive time slots of the TDM cycle. The invention is applied to a cash-till network in a retail store where a salesman at a remote till keys in the stock numbers of items to be purchased, the quantity, whether they are taxable and the money tendered, all upon instructions from the computer, which instructions are displayed by lamps on the till keyboard. The computer at the central station looks up the cost of each item, totals them and calculates the change and transmits the details to the remote station as it obtains them for display on a multi-cathode discharge tube display. A printed record at the till of some of the data transmitted is also made. Each message register is a 100-bit circulating register; containing pre-determined sections for a synchronizing signal, a possible poll signal and an instruction for display and an 18-bit character message for display and a character to be printed. All stations are polled in turn during their respective time slots, a station on receiving its own poll signal transmits in serial form the digit keyed in at that moment during the rest of the time slot. The computer in the central station processes the received data and on composing a complete message for return to the remote station inserts it into the respective message register for immediate transmission. To avoid cross talk different carrier frequencies are used for the go and return signals. The digit keyed in at a remote station has a parity bit and failure of a parity causes the remote stations sending that data to be polled again in the very next time slot. Repeated failure of parity causes the station to be counted out. The multi-cathode discharged display suppresses non-significant zeros.
