Abstract
Abstract An information recording system, which comprises means for storing in a storage device various pieces of information to be registered, an operator table storing at least one secret code peculiar to a particular operator and an operation level corresponding to such secret code, and a report weight table storing a plurality of different weights one for each kind of recorded information to be outputted, means for entering a secret code of the operator and the kind of recorded information to be outputted when such recorded information is desired to be outputted, means for comparing the operation level corresponding to the secret code of the operator so entered with the weight of the recorded information desired to be outputted, and means for outputting the recorded information only when the secret code of the operator is greater than the weight of the recorded information.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
176 words
An information recording system comprising: storage means for storing a plurality of pieces of recorded information, each piece of recorded information having a report number; operator table means for storing at least one secret code peculiar to a particular operator and an operation level corresponding to each secret code; report weight table means for storing a plurality of weights, with one weight for each report number; means for entering a secret code of an operator and the report number of a piece of recorded information to be outputted from said storage means; means for comparing the operation level corresponding to the secret code of the operator with the weight corresponding to the report number of the piece of recorded information to be outputted; and means responsive to the comparing means for outputting the piece of recorded information from the storage means only when the operation level corresponding to the secret code of the operator is equal to or greater than the weight corresponding to the report number of the piece of recorded information to be outputted.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
176 words
An information recording system comprising: storage means for storing a plurality of pieces of recorded information, each piece of recorded information having a report number; operator table means for storing at least one secret code peculiar to a particular operator and an operation level corresponding to each secret code; report weight table means for storing a plurality of weights, with one weight for each report number; means for entering a secret code of an operator and the report number of a piece of recorded information to be outputted from said storage means; means for comparing the operation level corresponding to the secret code of the operator with the weight corresponding to the report number of the piece of recorded information to be outputted; and means responsive to the comparing means for outputting the piece of recorded information from the storage means only when the operation level corresponding to the secret code of the operator is equal to or greater than the weight corresponding to the report number of the piece of recorded information to be outputted.
