Description

Operator's Console.

console typewriter built into console de.sk.

The operators Console is a separate unit consisting of two display panels, a very simple typewriter key-board which includes four additional control keys, and a built-in console typewriter. The console is specifically designed for monitoring the running of production programs rather than for assisting in the debugging of programs under test or of hardware conditions. The latter functions are handled

specif-The first display board (Figure 1), located directly in front of the operator's position, shows details of each of the eight programs currently being run, in-dicates control errors, and shows whether console operations are in progress. The second display frame (Figure 2), located to the left of the opera-tor's position, shows the status of each input-output device.

The four control keys, are the Run, Stop, Execute (execute a console-enter instruction) and Cancel (cancel a console-entered instruction which has not been executed) keys. By using combinations of these keys, other functions such as single~instruction

running (stepping) can be performed.

.12 Description

. 23 Multiple Copies: . .24 Arrangement of Heads

Use of station: .

The data read is dependent upon standard subrou-tines to accomplish conversion to Honeywell 800 codes. The conversion and fitting of the character read into words normally takes approximately 100 microseconds per character. This operation loads the central processor 5 to 10% of its total capacity, depending on the speed to which the paper tape reader is set. The effective speed of the reader is reduced by at least 5 characters per second when-ever the tape reader is allowed to halt.

Numerals: . . . any 5 to 8 bit code.

The reader can read tape either from spools or in strips. It uses swing arms for tension, and spool motor drive control. The read mechanism is photo-electric and the tape is driven by a pinch roller. An automatic rewinding feature is incorporated in the unit.

Either paper tape reels or strips can be read; how-ever, if strips are used, reading must be restricted to 500 characters per second. The paper tape should be non-oiled, opaque tape. Metallic tape can be used optionally.

Model H-823 Card Reader

INPUT-OUTPUT: H-823 CARD READER

§ 073.

Model H-S23 Card Reader.

There are two versions, the HeS23-1, H-823-2.

The H-823-1 is adapted from the IBM 085; the H-S23-2 is adapted from the IBM 08S.

These units are modified IBM collators which retain most of their normal operating characteristics.

Only one of the two card feeds is used for cards to be read; the other is used to insert marker cards for certain handling procedures. These error-handling procedures involve setting switches manu-ally before running a particular program in order to allow the run to be halted, the error card to be eliminated, a marker card to be inserted, or a com-bination of these actions to take place whenever an error is detected. The action occurs either during the reading or during transmission of data to Main Memory. The reading check is a hole-count check, but can optionally be a check to ensure that all punching is standard Hollerith.

Card reading is initiated as soon as the previous card-image has been tralJ.Smitted to Main Memory.

Thus, waiting time is reduced during card-reading, and no additional burden is put on the programmer.

The maximum reading rate is 250 cards per minute (Model S23-1) or 650 cards per minute (Model 823- 2). Reading can occur in standard Hollerith or column binary form, and in no case can it consume more than O. 3 per cent of central processor com-puting tiIhe. .212 Reservoirs

§ 074. inde-pendent of one another from the user's viewpoint and are covered in separate sections of this report.

The reader reads standard SO-column cards at a peak: speed of SOD cards per minute. Conversion from the card column code to internal BCD code is automatic. A hole-count check is made on each col-umn at a second reading station, and the bit configu-ration of each character is checked for validity as it is transferred into the read synchronizer for later transmission into core storage. A hopper with a 3, ODD-card capacity and three stackers with 1,000-card capacities (one shared with the punch unit) can be loaded and unloaded without stopping the reader.

Card reading is initiated as soon as the previous card-image has been transmitted to Main Memory.

Thus, waiting time is reduced during card-reading, and no additional burden is put on the programmer.

Reading can occur in standard Hollerith or column binary form, and in no case can it consume more than 0.4 per cent of central processor computing time.
