REMOTE DISPLAY CONSOLE FOR COMPUTER PROCESSED DATA
Abstract
The remote display console simulates an FSQ-7 situation display but can be located remotely from the processing computer with only a telephone-line or radio-link connection. The system has a 1300-cps, 92-bit message format which permits the transmission of approximately 14 messages/sec. A ferrite core memory stores 62 of these messages, each of which can consist of 4, 8, or 13 symbols. The console is completely selfcontained except for the digital data receiver, which would normally be supplied by the telephone company. At 50 frames/sec the display is essentially flicker free and bright enough to be viewed comfortably in a well-lighted room. The tube used provides a resolution equivalent to 5000 to 8000 TV lines and presents negligible distortion of symbols to the extreme edges of the 19-in. tube. (Author)
