Abstract

Abstract A supervision system has a central station connected to a plurality of remote stations wherein information obtained from the remote stations is logged or printed out on a data logging apparatus or printer in accordance with a format previously established. The printer has a control apparatus which is connected to be controlled by a program stored in a read-onlymemory storage apparatus for establishing a format for the collected data to be printed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 122 words
In a supervision system having a central station connected to a plurality of groups of remote stations wherein information data obtained from the remote stations by the central station is logged by logging apparatus controlled by a control means having a memory apparatus for determining the format used by the logging apparatus to log the information data, the improvement comprising: said memory apparatus being a predetermined semiconductor readonly-memory for insertion into the control means wherein operation steps for said control means for controlling the logging apparatus are stored to be sequentially used by said control means by providing a plurality of bits for use with electrical control apparatus connected to the logging apparatus to present the information data with a predetermined format.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 122 words
In a supervision system having a central station connected to a plurality of groups of remote stations wherein information data obtained from the remote stations by the central station is logged by logging apparatus controlled by a control means having a memory apparatus for determining the format used by the logging apparatus to log the information data, the improvement comprising: said memory apparatus being a predetermined semiconductor readonly-memory for insertion into the control means wherein operation steps for said control means for controlling the logging apparatus are stored to be sequentially used by said control means by providing a plurality of bits for use with electrical control apparatus connected to the logging apparatus to present the information data with a predetermined format.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 66 words
In a data logging apparatus having a data logging format control means, the improvement comprising the use of a single semiconductor read-only-memory having a plurality of bits with electrical control apparatus for stepping through said memory to use said bits to control an operation of the data logging apparatus to present logged data in a format selected by a predetermined format determined by said single read-only-memory.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 66 words
In a data logging apparatus having a data logging format control means, the improvement comprising the use of a single semiconductor read-only-memory having a plurality of bits with electrical control apparatus for stepping through said memory to use said bits to control an operation of the data logging apparatus to present logged data in a format selected by a predetermined format determined by said single read-only-memory.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 151 words
In a data logging apparatus for recording in a selected format the data collected from a plurality of data retrieval points, said apparatus comprising: data collecting apparatus for colLecting data at a central location from a plurality of points over electrical circuits, logging apparatus at the central location for logging the data collected over said electrical circuits from said plurality of points, a single semiconductor read-only-memory storage apparatus having a plurality of storage steps each with a plurality of bits, and electrical control means connected to said storage apparatus, said logging apparatus and said data collecting apparatus for selecting a format from said read-only-memory storage apparatus by stepping down said memory through said plurality of storage steps to use the bits for controlling the format to be used by said logging apparatus and for selecting from said data collecting apparatus the type of data to be logged by said logging apparatus.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 151 words
In a data logging apparatus for recording in a selected format the data collected from a plurality of data retrieval points, said apparatus comprising: data collecting apparatus for colLecting data at a central location from a plurality of points over electrical circuits, logging apparatus at the central location for logging the data collected over said electrical circuits from said plurality of points, a single semiconductor read-only-memory storage apparatus having a plurality of storage steps each with a plurality of bits, and electrical control means connected to said storage apparatus, said logging apparatus and said data collecting apparatus for selecting a format from said read-only-memory storage apparatus by stepping down said memory through said plurality of storage steps to use the bits for controlling the format to be used by said logging apparatus and for selecting from said data collecting apparatus the type of data to be logged by said logging apparatus.
