POINT-OF-MANUFACTURE DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM
Abstract of the Disclosure
A point-of-manufacture data acquisition system for
an industrial facility including a series of work stations
through which workpiece units are transferred for production
operations, comprising a multiplicity of workpiece unit identi-
fication members, which may be punched data cards, each bearing
scannable identification data to identify a workpiece unit,
a number of similar production operation identification members
each identifying a production operation, and a plurality of
similar operator identification members each identifying an
operator. There is a series of data terminals, one for each
work station. Each data terminal includes a simple,manually-
operated data scanner; when punched card identification members
are employed, the data scanner comprises one LED and one photo-
transistor. The data terminal also includes a data store, a
data display, and a microprocessor which controls entry and
retrieval of data in the store and processes that data; each
data terminal further includes program means for the microprocessor
effectively controlling the sequence and acceptability of all
data. A central polling processor periodically interrogates
all data terminals to collect and record essentially complete
payroll, production, and other data based essentially on scanning
of the identification members. Two transmission lines and a
ground line connect the polling processor to the data terminals,
the transmission lines transmit DC power in opposite polarities
to all data terminals on a shared-time basis with data signals
from the polling processor to the terminals on one line and
from the terminals to the polling processor on another; the data
signals on each line are of opposite polarity from the power.

A modification for use of optical or magnetic bar code
identification members is also described.

Background of the Invention
This invention relates to a data ac~uisition system
suitable for a production facility of the kind including a large
number of individual work skations through which a multiplicity
of workpieces progress in the fabrication of a single article.
The invention is described in the environment of a sewing plant
for garment manufacture; however, the system is also applicable
to other production facilities having similar general
characteristics.
The manufacture of a garment usually entails many
individual production operations, from cutting of the cloth
to final pressing of the completed garment. For example,
the manufacture of a suit jacket or sports jacket may require
a total of one hundred twenty or more separate steps, including
cutting, fusing, sewing, pressing, and other operations.
For different styles, the number of operations may vary
substantiall~. Thus, one jacket style may have patch pockets
and anoth~r may use pocket flaps; one style can include
three buttons on each sleeve, another may have two buttons
per sleeve, and another may have none. There is, quite
literally, no consistent, standardized set of operations.
~evertheless, a garment factory producing garments subject
to style and fashion variations must provide for concurrent
manufacture of a wide variety of styles, the work content
of the shop shifting constantly on a day-to-day basisO
Intelligent scheduling of production in a garment
sewing shop re~uires the compilation of a great deal of
informationO For effective and efficient production scheduling~
manayement should know which operators are present and availa~le,
2 -

28~
the skills of those operators, current production bottlenecks
and the likelihood o~ impending bottlenecks. of course, it is
essential to know the production peculiarities o~ specific
garment styles and the permissible trade-offs between
alternative items. In some manner, data regarding all of these
disparate factors should be collected and organized to allow
for effective scheduling decisions, particularly in an era
in which style and fashion concepts are subject to rapid and
repeated change
Traditional techniques for obtaining basic data
regarding operators and their skills are essentially byproducts
of incentive payroll reporting schemes. For each garment, a
document known as a bundle ticket is prepared; the bundle
ticket identifies the cut, style, and component re~uirements
of the garment. The bundle ticket includes a series of
coupons, one for each individual operation to be performed
in manufacture of the garment. There are also a series of
additional similar bundle tickets for subassemblies incorporated
in the complete garment. For example, for a jacke~, in
addition to the basic bundle ticket for the overall garment
there may be separate tickets, with individual coupons, for
the front, back~ collar, sleeves, pocket flaps, pockPt patches,
yoke, and canvas portions of the garment. ~s each operation
is performed, the related coupon for that operation is cut
from the ticket and is used to record the work done and the
operator identity for payroll purposes. Traditionally, the
bundle tickets and coupons are the only records available to
track the progress of the garment components through the shop.
-- 3 --

6~
A coupon-based system, in which the individual
operators control the return flow of coupons, is inherently
unreliable as a source of accurate production statistics.
These and other known payroll reporting techniques fall far
short of accurately reporting data adequate for determination
of individual productivity by style, lost time, increasing
or decreasing operator efficiency for new models, etc.
Furthermore, the traditional recording techniques do not
provide additional data essential to effective production
scheduling, such as the operational status of the production
equipment, the distribution of work-in-process inventory
among the many operations in the plant, and the work requirements,
b~ operation,of individual sty~es in process.
A production manager would be swamped in any attempt
to contend manually with such an immense volume of specific
detail. Some improvement is made possible by effective use
of a computex in collating and summarizing the data available
from a conventional coupon system or other similar systems.
In general, however, the production manager of a garment
sewing shop has little direct knowledge of the status of any
group of garment components after it enters the shop and prior
to the time the completed garments emerge. Production scheduling,
therefore, is based in large part on intuition and experienceO
An intelligent substitute for experience in a high-
production variable-style garment shop would be a sophisticated
mathematical model simulating the complete garment manufacturing
process. Such a model can afford an effective guide to
management in utilizing plant resources efficiently to smooth
the flow of production and alleviate impending bottlenecks.
Building a computer model of a style shop comprising scores
-- 4 --
.. .~ . ~ ,-, ~:

i6
o~ operations, hundreds of operators, and thousands of units
in inventor~, however, can be a truly aw~some task. Only by
capturing data as each ope~ tion occurs on each garment in
the sewing shop can the computer model hope to achieve the
precision required for effective analysis and reliable
predictions.
In a sewing shop, manufacturing operations are
typically of short duration and are performed by sedentary
operators working on relatively low-cost equipment. Conse-
quently, it is impractical and economically infeasible tomonitor these activities with conventional data collection
devices, which in many instances have a cost comparable to
that of the manufacturing equipment at each work station.
Thus, for an effective data acquisition system applicable to
a garment sewing shop or similar production facility, low
cost for each work station terminal is of critical importance.
Furthermore~ it is not desirable to have a single terminal
serve multiple work stations because this requires the
operators to leave their stations periodically to enter
information in the multi-station terminal~ creating unprofitable
work ~low interruptions and adding materially to operational
costs. Thus, there is a basic need ~or a data acquisition
terminal having a cost substantially lower than the cost o~
production equipment at each work station.
The re~uirements for source data collection in a
sewing shop are quite stringent in other respects as well.
To begin with, each operation should be logged as it occurs,
avoiding the time dela~s introduced by operator reporting
activities in coupon systems. ~ data ac~uisikion system that
signals both the start and the end o~ each production operation
5,

6~6
is also highly desirable, because it affords a readout of
non-productive time between operations as well as productive
work time.
Each production operation should also be identified
completely according to style, workpieces being processed,
the work performed, and operator identity. ThiS level of
detail is desirable not only as input to an effective computer
model of the shop but also for subsequent production analyses.
Moreover, events relating to the work status of an operator,
customarily captured on time cards and work tickets, should
be collected as they occur to account for the activities of
each operator for payroll purposes. Finally, because sewing
operators cannot be expected to possess high-level clerical
skills, it is most desirable to eliminate any necessity for
entry of data through the use of a keyboard or any like input
device.
Another factor o substantial practical importance
is adaptability to relocation. shifting fashion trends
frequently lead to work station realignments; the data
acquisition system should provide for terminal relocation
anyplace in the shop with minimum bother. A simple plug-it-in
arrangement is most desirableO
A data acquisition system having the general
characteristics noted above can provide other desirable
attributes as well, particularly if each work station terminal
includes a keyboard for entry of specialized information,
normally not utilized for the basic dataO Thus, machine
breakdown and repair may be logged by supervisory personnel
for use in scheduling maintenance, estimating costs o further
mechanization, and tracking productivity of mechanicsO other
. . - . : . : . .:

~8~6
specialized data may include authorization for an operator
to work overtime or to leave the work station before the end
of a shift, identification of work Oll a new style for which
an operator is to be paid on an hourly basis rather than an
incentive basis, and occurrence of an interruption in workflow
to a station without fault of the operator requiriny compensation
on a time basisO
Thus, a data ac~uisition system to be used in
production scheduling and general control of a garment sewing
shop or like production facility should compile accurate real-
time data relating to all of the disparate factors affecting
productionO This information should be captured at its
source~, the individual work stations, through low cost
equipment that is "intelligent" enough to compile all basic
data through scanning of simple identification members so that
no clerical skill or training is required of individual
operators.
Previously proposed factory data collection systems
have not met the criteria set forth aboveD Thus, such systems
have usually employed keyboards, sometimes in combination with
conventional punched card readers, bar code scanners, or like
devices, for basic data entry. Previously known systems have
customarily used dedicated multi-pair wiring, telephone lines,
or even coaxial cable for communication between data entry
points and central data compilation facilitias, making
relocation of data entry terminals both difficult and expensive.
The system terminals are generally too e~pensive to place at
every work station. The results are not satisfactory in
garment shops and other manufacturing facilities characterized
by sedentary operators, low work place investment, short

~L~Z~66~
cycle times~ and frequent physical layout revisions. Further-
more, previously known systems have n~t been readily adaptable
to changes in data input devices and techniques (eOg~ punched
cards to bar code ID members) or to acquisition of disparate
kinds of data (eOg~ process parameters) conjointly with
basic production data.
Summary of the Invention

~ Description of the Preferred Embodiments
- Fig. 1 affords a simplified block diagram of a
point-of-manufacture data acquisition system 20 constructed
in accordance with the pres~nt inventionO System 20 is
utilized in a garment sewing shop or other production facility
of the kind comprising a series of work stations through
which a multiplicity of workpiece units, each including one
or more individual workpieces, are transferred from station
to station for performance of a sequence of manufacturing
or other process operations. Fig. 1 shows two series of work
stations 21-1, 21-2 .~. 21-~ and 22-1, 22-2... 22-N, each
including a production apparatus 23. In a garment sewing
shop, production apparatus 23 may be an ordinary sewing machine,
a buttonhole cutting and sewing device~ a specialized sewing
apparatus~ a press, or even a dry cleaning installation.
There is a data terminal 24 located at each work
station. Each data terminal 24 includes a data recording and
transmitting unit 25 electrically connected to a scanner unit
26. The r~corder/transmitter units 25 for the work stations
of series 21-1 through 21-N are each connected b~ a local
three-wire power/data cable 27 and a connector plug 28 to a
power/data transmission bus 29 including three conductors 101-
103~ Similarly, each of the recorder/transmitter units 25
for the work stations 22-1 through 22-~ is connected by a
local power/data cable 27 and a connector plug 28 to a second
three-wire bus 290 Each o~ the two main buses 29 is connected
to a separate terminal bus interface circuit 31, and the two
interface circuits 31 are both connected to a common power
supply 32. The two terminal bus interface circuits 31 are also
both connected to a polling processor 33 that is in turn
- 13 ~

~2866~
connected to a central or host computer 34. Auxiliary
equipment 350 including a time-of-day signal source, one or
more magnetic tape recorders, a keyboard, display instrumentation
and the like, is also connected to proces~or 33. Alternatively,
some of the auxiliary equipment may be connected to interface
units 310
The basic work input for the several work stations
for the system illustrated in Fig. 1 includes a series of
workpiece units 360 Each workpiece unit, in a garment sewing
shop, constitutes a bundle of individual parts or subassemblies
or garments being manufactured in the plant. ~s a specific
example, one of the workpiece units 36 may include the facing
elements for pocket flaps for a jacket, requiring finish sewing
and attachment to lining and stiffener components. The nature
of the workpiece units 36 depends upon the manufacturing
operations conducted in the plant in which system ~0 is
installed.
Each workpiece unit 36 is accompanied by an identi-
fication member 370 The identification member 37 for each
~0 workpiece unlt may carry printed data 38 identifying various
requiremants and accessories for the garments or other end
products in which the workpieces are to be incorporated.
For example, the printed data 38 may include identification of
thread types, stitching styles, button arrangements, special
display seams, trim, and the like; see Fig. 4.
For use in data acquisition system 20, each workpiece
identification member 37 carries scannable workpiece unit
identification data 39, data that identifies the specific
workpiece unit 36~ Thus, in a garment sewin~ shop the scannable
data 39 includes identification of the basic cutting of the
- ~4

~ 31 2~666
cloth for tha garmentO referred to as a cut number, and
identification of a specific bundle from the cut if the cut
is divided, as usual, into different bundles~ The scannable
data 39 also includes any additional information necessary
for complete identification of workpiece unit 36; this additional
data, for example, may identify workpiece unit 36 as
constituting the main body of the jacket or the components
for the sleeves or some other subassembly of the jacket. The
prime requisite for scannable data 39 is that it affords
effective identification for the associated workpiece unit 36.
Tha data acquisition system 20 utilizes two
additional groups of identification members 41 and 43. Member
41 constitutes an individual ID card for a particular worX
station operator. It carries scannable data 42 t which, at
the minimum, constitutes an identification number individual
to a speciic operator~ Member 43, on the other hand, carries
scannable data 44 that identifies a particular shop operation.
Thus, if the workpieces in unit 36 are the parts for a garment
sleeve, the ccannable data 44 on member 43 may refer to the
sewing of one seam on a sleeve, a finishing operation on the
end of a sleeve, or the like.
The scannable data 39, 42, 44 carried by the
individual identification members employed in system 20 can
take a variety of different forms. Thus, the scannable data
may constitute an optical bar code, the data punchings in
a punched tape, a magnetic bar code, specially configured
characters for optical scanning, the punched holes in a
conventional tabulating card, and a variety of other different
forms. Perhaps the most important consideration, in selecting
the form for the scannable data 39, 42, 44, is the cost of
- 15

llZB666
the scanner 26 that reads the data and the compatibility of
the scannable data with the additional printed data on each
identification member.
For system 20, the preferred iaentification memhers
constitute ordinary tabulating cards and the scannable data
is a single row of punched holes in each card. This has the
advantage that a card of reasonable size, using only one row
for scannable data, affords a substantial area for the
presentation of human-readable information. In addition~ the
identification cards can be quickly and inexpensively prepared,
in large quantities, using commercially available equipment
that prints and punches the cards in a single operation.
Furthermore, the punched card identification members can be
scanned by a very inexpensive scanner 26, constituting an
important feature of system 20 as described more fully in
connection with Figs. 4-7O
The basic operation of data acquisition system 20
can now be considered. At the beginning of a worX shift, an
operator arrives at work station 21-1 and starts the work day
by scanning identification member 41, the personal ID card
carried by the operator, in scanner 26. Scanner 26 senses
; the scannable data 42 on card 41 and supplies that data to
recorder/transmitter unit 25 of data terminal 24 at work
station 21-1, which interprets the scanned data and records
the identity of the operator. At the time the operator's
identification member 41 is scanned, data terminal 24 actuates
a display and produces an audible signal to inform the operator
that the requisite information has been recorded. The
identification of the operator is maintained in storage in
recorder/transmitter unit 25 throughout the subsequent work period.

66
The polling processor 33, through the connections
provided by terminal bus interface circuits 31 and bus
connections 27-29, regularly polls each of the recorder/
transmitter units ~5 to determine whether any data is in
storageO During the next polling cycle following scanning
of the operator's identification member 41 at work station
21-1, polling processor 33 determines that data is available
from that terminal; it then retrieves and records the identi-
fication data for the operator together with the station
identification for work station 21-1~ Processor 33 also
appends time-of-day information to indicate the time that
the operator scanned the identification cardO The programming
of polling processor 33 determines that the received data
from station 21-1 constitutes the identification of an
operator and, since there has been no previous operator
identification for that station, records the data as indicative
of the beginning of a work period. The operator is not required
to make any clerical entry with respect to starting time or
identification of the work station or even that the action
taking place is the beginning of a work shift. All of this
information is derived by system 20 solely on the basis of
ccanning of the data 42 on operator identification card 4Lo
When polling processor 33 has retrieved and recorded
the operator identification data from terminal 24 in work
station 21-1, system 20 signals to the operator that this has
been accomplished. Subsequently, the data relating to the
operator starting work at station 21-1 i5 transmitted from
polling processor 33 to the central computer 34 for such
subsequent data processing as may be desired for payroll and
other functionsO

O Next, the operator beginning work at station 21-1
passes the shop operation identification member 43 through
scanner 26. The shop identification members 43 for the
various work stations are usually prepared by a foreman or
by other supervisory personnel, and are distributed to the
work stations before the shift begins~ Alternatively, the
operators may be required to pick up the operation identifica-
tion members for their work stations at some central location
as they report for work. In any event, regardless of ~he
distribution arrangement used for the shop identification cards
43, the card for station 21-1 is scanned and the shop operation
is recorded in the recorder/transmitter unit 25 of the data
terminal 24 at that station~ In the next succeeding poll
taken by polling processor 33, this information is retrieved
and recorded in the polling processor for subsequent trans-
mission to the centxal computer 34. Again, the recorder/
transmitter unit 25 informs the operator that the shop
operation ID has been proparly scanned and entered into system
20. This is important because system 20 is preferably
programmed to require entry of both operator and shop identi-
fication operation data be~ore work begins~
The operator at station 21~1 next scans the workpiece
identification member 37 for the first workpiece unit 36
through scanner 26~ In consequence, the identity o that
particular workpiece unit is recorded in unit Z5 of data
terminal 24 at work station 21-1. A good scan is acknowledged
to the operator by a display and an audible ~ignal; an erroneous
scan is rejected by t~e work station terminal. The data
relating to the workpiece unit is retrieved and recorded,
- 18 -

8666
; . together with time-of-day information, in the next cycle of
polling processor 33; ultimately, the data are passed on to
computer 34 to identify and record the initiation of work on
this particular workpiece unit~ Identification of the workpiece
unit 36 is also retained in storage in unit 25 of the data
: terminal 24 for work station 21-1.
From this point forward, the operator processes the
workpieces of unit 36 in production apparatus 23 at work
station 21-1 until all workpieces in the unit are processed.
The operator then again passes the workpiece unit identification
member 37 through scanner 26. The scanned data is recorded
in unit 25 of data terminal 24 and is subsequently picked up
by polling processor 33 in the form of a message indicating
that work on this particular workpiece unit 36 has been
completed at station 21-lo This could be accomplished by
transmission of the complete data from the scan to the polling
processor; in system 20, in the pre~erred construction
described more fully hereinafter, only an abbreviated l'work
completed" message is actually transmitted. Abbreviation of the
data transmission for completion o a workpiece unit at a given
work station affords a material reduction in the total data
transmission requirements, since most of the messages
transmitted through system ~0 constitute data identifying the
beginning and end of work on individual workpiece units~
The operator then passes the completed workpiece
unit 36 on to the next station 21-2 and starts work on another
workpiece unit, scanning the identification card for the new
workpiece unit as described above. The basic operational
sequence is the same for the other work stations served by
system 20~
-- 19 ~

When leaving station 21-1 for any extended period,
as at the beginning of a lunch period,the operator again scans
the personal identification card 41. The information from this
scan is passed through the system to polling processor 33 and
computer 34 as before. System 20 is programmed to recognize
that this second scan of data identifying an individual operator
signifies that the operator is leaving the work station. of
course, time-of-day information is again recorded to be
available for payroll, productivity review, and other related
purposes. When the operator returns to station 21 1, resumption
of work is signalled to system 20 by again scanning the
personal identification card 410 If there has been no change
in the shop operation to be performed at this work station,
there is no necessity for again scanning the shop operation
card ~3; the shop operation data is already recorded in the
system. on the other hand, if a new operation is now
scheduled for station 21-1, scanning of a shop operation card
43 identifying the new operation causes system 20 to supercede
the previously recorded shop function data. At the end of the
shift, the operator again scans the personal identification
member 41 and the data from this scan is interpreted by system
20 and recorded as indicating that the operator has left the
stationO At the close of the shift, the data terminals 24
at all of the work stations in the system are reset for the
next subsequent shift.
From the foregoing generalized operational description
of system 20, it can be seen that all of the basic information
relating to normal operations in the plant containing work
stations 21-1 through 21-~ and 22-1 through 22-~ is entered
into the s~stem simply by scanning the identification members
- 20 -

8~i6
37, 41 and 43, using th~ individual scanners 26 at each of
the work stations. Work station operators are not required to
exercise any substantial degree of clerical ski31~ Each
operator must scan the personal and shop operation ID cards
41 and 43 before starting workO However, if this sequence
requirement is not observed, system 20 alerts the operator
to the necessity of completing the preliminary identification
scans and rejects the out-o~-sequence data.
For each workpiece unit 36, the operator is required
only to scan the identification member 38 twice, once when
work starts on that workpiece unit and again when work on the
unit is completed. The time required for these two scanning
operations is substantially less than the coupon clipping,
ticket marking and coupon collecting operations associated
with conventional piecework payroll systems, particularly when
using the preferred identification members and scanning
apparatus described in detail below. ~evertheless, despite
the minimal nature of the requirements imposed on the work
station operator, system 20 collects and transmits to central
computer 34 complete data with respect to operator identity,
operator arrival time, operator departure time, shop operations
performed, workpiece unit identity, time of start of workpiece
processing, and time of completion of workpiece processing.
This is accomplished for aach work station throughout the shop~
Moreover, all of this information is acquired and recorded
continuously throughout each work shift on a real-time basis~
A specific embodiment of the data acquisition system
20 of Fig. l can now be considered, hased upon the detailed
information presented in Figs. 2 through 14. Fig. 2 illustrates
a typical work station 21-1 in a garment sewing shop. The work
- 21 -

366~
D station consists o a work table 51 supporting the production
apparatus 23, which in this instance constitutes a sewing
machine 52 actuated by a treadle 53. A thread shelf 54
mounted at the rear of table 51 provides a plurality of
spindles 55 for thread spools containing the various threads
that may be used in different garments.
Electrical power for sewing machine 52 is provided
through a power cable 56 connected to an ovexhead bus duct 57
by a suitable connector 58. The power cable 56 extends
downwardly through a vertical conduit 59 to sewing machine 52.
In FigO 2 the scanner 26 is located at the lower
right ~ront corner of table 51 and is connected by a three-wire
cable 61 to the recorder/transmitter uni~ 25, which is suspended
from shelf 54D The local power/data cable 27 extends from
unit 25 upwardly along conduit unit 59; connector 28 is plugged
into the main power/data bus 29 at an overhead location.
The main bus 29 for the data acquisition system may
be a conventional bus duct, using the same components as the
power duct 57O Preferably, however, duct 29 and connectors 28
are sufficiently different from duct 57 and connectors 58 so
that local data acquisition system cables 27 canno.t--.be plugged
into the power duct 57 and vice versa. The principal require-
ments for duct 29 are that it afford three conductors, two
power/data lines and one grouhdd preferably with a current
capacity equal to or greater than ~o~ 12 wire9 with multiple
receptacles along its length to afford convenient access at
any location throughout the shop. Inexpensive pre-wired
electrical feed rails of this ~eneral type may be used and
axe commercially.available ~rom a variety of suppliers.

As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the front 62 of recorder/
transmitter unit 25 includes character display 63, including
nine individual display units ~3A-63I, and two indicator lamp
64 and 65. The indicator lamps 64 and 65 are preferably of
different colors; lamp 64 may be red and lamp 65 may be yellow.
A small audible signalling device 66 and a keyboard 67 are
also mounted on the front of the recorder/transmitter uni t 25 D
Display 63 can present a variety of messages to the operator
at work station 21-1. In paxticular, display 63 is utilized
10 to signal effective data input to system 20 from a good scan
of any of the identification cards 37, 41, or 43; the audible
signalling device 66 is used as an aid to the same end.
Lamp 64 affords an indication that data previously entered
in unit 25 has been passed on to the polling processor 33 of
the system 20, leaving unit 25 ready for entry of additional
data. Lam~3 65 responds to polling signals from processor 33
to a~ford an indication that unit 25 is properly connec:ted
in functional relationship to the polling processor 33 ~Fig. 11.
Keyboard 67 is employed only for entry of specialized data or
20 to request inormation from the central facilities 33-35; it
is not used in routine operation of unit 25.
Fig. 4 illustrates a preferred form for worlcpiece
unit identification mem;ber 37, The printed information 38 on
member 37, which constitutes an ordinary paper tabulating card~
includes the cut number and bundle nulr;ber fox the workpiece;
the same information is punched into the card as scannable data
39. In addition, the printed data 38 on card 37 includes much
additional information use~ul to the work station operator~
including thread designations, special stitching instructions,
30 collar, pad and lapel instructions, and the like~,
-- 23 --

The scannable data 39 cut into card 37 is in conven-
tional binary coded decimal notation, and includes special
star~ and end symbols 67 and 68 as well as the coding for the
cut number, bundle numher, and check digit. The use of
distinguishable start and end symbols effectively eliminates
errors that might otherwise result if the operator scans data
card 37 in the reverse direction. By using separate start and
. finish codes, the programming of unit 25 can be made to read
. the cut number and bundle number accurately regardless of the
direction of the scan of data 39.
Figs. 5-7 illustrate the preferred construction
for scanner 26. The scanner comprises a molded resin block 69
(nylon is sati.sfactory) having a longitudinally extending slot
70, the width W of slot 70 being very slightly larger than
the thickness T of the individual identification members such
as the workpiece unit ID card 37. ~n infra-red emissive light
emitting diode 71 is mounted centrally within block 69 at one
side of slot 70, in opposed aligned relation to a phototransistor
72. LED 71 and phototransistor 72 may conveniently constitute
a part of a small subassembly 73, commercially available from
the General Electric Company as Type H 13B2. The circuit
connections for LED 71 and phototransistor 72 are shown in
Fig. 7.
The use of scanner 26 by a work station operator is
extremaly simple. An identification member, such as workpiece
identification member 370 is inserted into slot 70 wîth the
leading edge of the identification member located at one end
of block 69. The operator then simply pulls the identification
card through the scanning slot 70 as indicated by arrow 74 in
Fig. 5. ~he scanning speed is not critical; substantial
- 24 -
, , ,

~2~3666
variation can be tolerated. LED 71 and phototransistor 72
are located, in relation to the bottom of slot 70, so that
the data punch apertures 39 in card 37 are sensed in sequence
as the identification card passes through the scanner, see
Fig~ 6~ As will be apparent from Fig. 7, the data output from
scanner 26 is taken from the emitter of photo~ransistor 72,
the other lines in cable 61 constituting power connections
for LED 71 and transistor 72.
The basic form for identification members 41 and
43 (Fig, 1~ is the same as for the workpiece unit identification
card 37 shown in FigO 4, so that a more detailed illustration
of the shop operation and op~rator identification members is
unnecessary. B ecause identification members 41 and 43 are
of more permanent nature than the workpiece identification
member 37, it may be desirable to fabricate cards 41 and 43
from thin, tough plastic stock rather than from paper. In
all other respects, however, all of the idantification cards
are essentially similar in construction
As shown in Fig. 3~ the recorder/transmitter 25
that constitutes the main unit of each data terminal 24
includes just three circuit boards, a front board 81, a
middle board 82, and a rear board 83; these threa boards are
shown in Figs. 8, 9 and 10 respectively. The three circuit
boards 81-83 include all of the operational components of
unit 25.
The front board 81, Fig. 8, is essentially a
display board controlling the character display 63, the
indicator lamps 64 and 65, and the audible signal 66~ It
also affords the necessary electrical connections for the
key pad 67~

As shown in Fig. 8, display 63 consists of nine
digital display elements 63~ through 63I~ Eaeh o these
display elements affords seven character segments plus a
deeimal point, they are of the LED type with a eommon eathode
for all segments, the displays being configured ~or multiplex
operation. Display elements 63~-63I are all eonnected to an
LED driver unit Z12 that affords current amplification for
the segments common to all nine display digits. Driver
eireuit Z12 is in turn conneeted to a keyboard/display
controller circuit Zll constituting an interfaee eonneeting
display 63 and keypad 67 to a microprocessor mounted on the
middle board 82 (Fig. 9)~ Controllar Zll is also eonneeted
to a decoder and driver circuit Z13 that deeodes the BCD data
from controller Zll to the one-of-nine eode used for seanning
display 63 and for row seanning of keypad 67. The integrated
eireuits Zll, Z12 and Z13, keypad 67, and display 63 eonstitute
a eonventional data entry and display configuration;
aeeordingly, no further detailed deseription of the interaetion
between the eireuits is deemed necessaryO
The left-hand side of board 81, Fig~ 8, ineludes
a twenty-six pin eonneetor 85A employed to connect the circuits
of front board 81 with those of middle board 82 (Fig. 9).
Pins 1 through 4 afford a ground conneetion. Pins 23 through
26 afford a +5 volt power supply eonneetion. A capaeitor Cll
provides for power storage and for filtering with respeet to
the ~5 volt supply, whieh is used for all of the integrated
eireuits on the boàrd~ Pins 5 through 19 provide for
interehange of data signals between the keyboard/display
eontroller Zll on board 81 and the eireuits on board 82.

The front or display board 81 (Fig. 8) also
includes an additional integrated circuit, a dual timer z14.
Timer Z14 is connected to the middle board 82 (Fig~ 9)
through two pins 20 and 21 of connector 85A. The dual timer
z14 is used to actuate indicator lamp 65, which is a light
emitting diode, and the audible signal device 66, which
constitutes a piezoelectric sound transducer~ Thus, in
response to an inpu~ signal on pin 20 of connector 85A, one-half
of dual timer Z14 energizes audible signal device 66 for a
predetermined time interval determined by a resistor R12
and a capacitor C13, preferably of the order of one second or
less. The other half of timer Z14, responding to an input
signal from pin 21 of connector 85~, energizes indicator lamp
65 for a different predetermined interval, in this instance
approximately ten seconds, determined by a resistor Rll and
a capacitor C12. The signals that energize lamp 65 are
generated in each polling cycle of the polling processor 33
(Fig~ 1) and the timing is such that lamp 65 remains continuously
energized so long as the work station terminal is effectively
connected in operational relationship to the polling processor.
Indicator lamp 64, again a light emitting diode, is
also mounted on front board 81. LED 64 is connected in series

O display controller Zll (Fig. 8) are provided through pins
5-19 of the inter-board connector 85B. Microprocessor Z21
includes an internal clock signal source having an operating
frequency determined by a crystal ~1. Microprocessor Z21
is also interconnected with a read-only me ry (ROM) unit Z22,
a random access memory (RAM) unit Z23, and a programmable
serial communication interface circuit Z24 of the kind sometimes
termed a USARTo ROM Z22 stores the operating program for
microprocessor Z21. RAM z23 affords temporary storage for
data scanned from the individual identification members of
the system, data entered through the keyboard, data received
from polling processor 33, and other computational data.
RAM Z23, in the configuration illustratedO includes a
programmable interval timer that generates an interrupt signal
after expiration of a given time delay, and a parallel input/
output port for use in conjunction with microprocessor Z21.
The input/output operation is parallel and programmable, and
consists of two elght-bit ports and one five-bit port. The
storage capacity of RAM Z23 i5 256 eight-bit bytes. The
programmable interface circuit z24 affords the necessary hard-
ware for serial full-duplex communication with polling
processor 33.
RAM Z23 ~as a number of additional connections both
to display board 81 and power/data board 83. Thus, pins 20-22
of connector 85B connect RAM Z23 to dual timer Z14 (Fig. 8).
A data input to RAM Z23 rom scanner 26 is provided through
a connection to pin 10 of a connector 87A that links boards
82 and 83. To identify the work station at which the data
terminal is used, a series of address switches 91 through 97
are connected to individual terminals of RAM Z23. Switch 91

is closed at each location and the others are closed on a
selective basis, a~fording a total of sixty-two different
work station addressesO
Pins 1 through 6 of connector 87A afford a +5 volt
power connection and terminals 21 through 26 provide a ground
connection between boards 82 and 83. A capacitor C22 provides
power storage and filtering for the power supply. A synchroni-
zing signal input from rear board 83 is supplied from terminal
20 of connector 87A to interface unit Z24. Data received from
polling processor 33 (Fig, 1) is applied to interface circuit
Z24 through a circuit connection from pin 19 of connector 87A,
Data transmission to the polling processor uses a circuit from
interface unit Z24 to pin 17 of connector 87A, Additional
pins 8, 9, 11-16 and 18 of connector 87A are connected to
RAM z23 for use with scanners of different types (see Fig~ 15
but are not utilized in the present configuration.
A normally-closed ~witch 98, in Fig. 9, has one
terminal connected to ground and the other terminal connected
through a resistor R15 to a capacitor C21 and to the input
of an inverting schmitt trigger Z30 that is connected to a

and to scanner 26 (FigsO 1, 2 and 7).
The connections to scanner 26 from board 83, Fig~
lOo include terminals 6, 8 and 9 of connector 99Av Terminal
6 is connected to ground through the series combination of a
resistor R40 and a potentiometer R50. Potentiometer R50 is
employed to adjust the output level of the LED 71 in scanner
26 (Fig. 7) to assure effective scanning of the identification
members used in the system. Pin 8 of connector 99A is connected
to the +5 volt supply of board 83, described hereinafter. Pin
9 of connector 99A, affording a connection to the emitter of
phototransistor 72 in scanner 26 (Fiy. 7), is connected
through a diode D40 and a schmitt trigger circuit Z35 to pin
10 of connector 87B to complete the scan data input circuit to
interface unit Z24 on the middle board 82 (Fig. 9). Circuit
Z35 (Fig. 10~ converts the generally sinusoidal output 104
from scanner 26 to a pulse waveform 105 suitable for use in
the data processing circuits of middle board 82.
The work station data terminal does not include a
conventional local power supply. Power for all of the data
terminals is derived from a central powex supply 32 (FigO 1).
As shown in Fig. 1, the main bus 29 and local connector
cables 27 each include three conductors 101, 102 and 103~
Lines 101 and 102 are empioyed or transmission of power to
all of the data terminals. Line 101 is also used to transmit
data from the individual work ~tation data terminals 24 to
polling processor 33. Line 102 has the additional function
of transmission of data from the polling processor to all of
the data terminals. Line 103 affords a ground connection
extending throughout the system~

In power/data board 83 (Fiy. 10~, line 101 is
connected to pins 2, 10 and 13 of connector 99A. A jumper
between points JPl and JP2 interconnecting pins 2 and 10 can
be removed for adaptation of board 83 to a system variation
in which data transmission is segregated from power transmission.
Line 103 is connected to pins 3, 7 and 12 of connector 99A.
All ground connections in board 83 are returned to this point.
Transmission line 102 is connected to pins 1, 4, 5 and 14 of
connector 99A. To convert board 83 for use in a system in
which power and data are segregated, two jumpers between
points JP3 and JP4 and points JP5 and JP6 can be removed.
Points JPl through JP6 are also useful for test and alignment
purposes, as are the additional test terminals JP7-JP9.
To facilitate understanding of the circuits of
power/data board 83 (Fig. 10) it is desirable ko first
consider the nature of the power and data signals transmitted
through the system on lines 101 and 102, which are illustrated
by the waveforms shown in Fiy. 11. Power is supplied to all
work station data terminals by a series of positive pulses on
line 101 and negative pulses on line 102. Thus, the waveform
for line 101 includes a series of recurring power pulses 105
of positive polarity~ The fre~uency of power pulses 105 is
subject to substantial variation, preferably within a range
o~ 300 to 2000 Hz. Each power pulse 105 has an amplitude of
~48 volts. The duty cycle for the power pulses is also
subje~t to substantial variation, preerably within a range of
twenty percent to eight-five percent. The power signal
on line 102 is similar and consists of a recurring series
of power pulses 1060 Power pulses 106 are o negative
polarity, having an amplitude~of -48 volts~ The two sets
_ 31 -

3666
of power pulses 105 and 106 are synchronized with each other
(Fig. ll)o
As noted above, line 101 transmits data from the
individual work station data terminals to the polling
processor of the system. Transmission i5 in the form of
a binary signal interposed in the gaps between power pulses
105. For a binary zero, the voltage on line 101 is left to
decay normally and goes no lower than zero, as indicated by
the intervals 107-0 in FigO 11. The rate of voltage decay
and level reached during the binary zero intervals 107-0 is
a function of tha overall transmission system capacitance,
and may vary substantially for different installations.
For a binary one a negative twelve volt pulse is applied to
line 101, in an interval between power pulses, as indicated
by the pulses 107-1 in FigO llo
A corresponding arrangement is used for transmission
of data from the polling processor to the individual data
terminals along line 1020 For intervals between power pulses
106 in which the voltage on the line is allowed to decay in
normal fashion, and the voltage on the line remains negati~e
with respect to zero, waveforms 10~-0 signifying binary ~eros
are presented. For binary ones, positive twelve volt pulses
are applied to line 102 in the intervals between power pulses,
as indicated by pulses 108-1 in Fig. 11. It is khus seen
that there is simultaneous time-shared transmission of power
and data between the work station terminals 24 and the terminal
bus interface units 31 of the system (see Fig. 1) and that
there can be simultaneous transmission of data to and from
the polling processor 33 and the work station terminals 2
at all times.

~2~i66
eturning to Fig. 10, it is seen that line 101 is
connected through a diode D32 to a first voltage regulator RGl
which is in turn connecked to a second voltage regulator ~G2.
Regulator RGl utilizes the foxty-eiyht volt power pulses 105
from line 101 (E~ig. 11) to develop a regulated twe~ve ~olt
supply of positive polarityO Regulator ~G2 is employed to
derive a regulated +5v supply for ~he circuits of all three
boards 81-83. The two regulators in series afford a steady
and reliable voltage supply, despite the intermittent nature
of the power input from line lOlo There is no specific need
for a regulated ~12v supply for boards 81-83, but with
different electronic implementation it may be a necessity
(see Figr 15)o hine 102 is connected through a diode D33
to a voltage regulator RG3 that provides a negative twelve
volt output for generation of data pulses 107-1 (Fig. 11)
on line 101. An additional regulator R~4 may be used to
provide a -5v supply for a different scanner (see Fig~ 15).
Line 102 is also connected through a blocking diode
D35 and a resistor R35 to a sync detector 109. Detector 109
includes a photo.isolator 110; the cathode of the LED component
of photoisolator 110 is connected through a resi~tor R37 to
resistor R35, the common terminal 113 of resistors R35 and
R37 being returned to ground through a capacitor C40. A
zener diode D37 is connected from terminal 113 to ground and
the anode of the hED in photoisolator 110 is also grounded.
The phototransistor in photoisolator 110 has its
emitter connected to system ground and its collector connected
to a "sync" pin 20 of connector 87B through the series
combination of two schmitt trigger circuits Z31 and z32.
- 33 -

1 lZ ~ 66 6
The collector of the transistor portion of device 107 is
also returned to the +5 volt supply through a resistor R39.
The output of trigger circuit Z32 is also connected to one
input of a ~AND gate Z36. A second input to gate Z36 is
derived from pin 17 of connector 87B through an inverter Z37.
~AND gate Z36 is connected in series with the LEDs in two
photoisolators 111 and 112, the circuit being returned to
the ~5 volt supply thnDugh a resistor R46.
The emitter of photoisolator 111 is connected to
the collector of a transistor amplifier Q31 and is also
connected through a current limiting lamp LPl and a filter
comprising a resistor R33 and a capacitor C35 to the output
of the -12 volt regulator RG3. Tha collector of the t~ansi.stor
element of photoisolator 111 is connected to the base of
transistor Q31. A feedback resistor R41 is connected between
the emitter and base of transistor Q31. The emitter of ¦
transistor Q31 is also connected to the emitter of a second
amplifier transistor Q32 that is connected, in a complementary
circuit, to photoisolator 112. The collector of transistor
amplifier Q3~ is connected to line 101 through a blocking
diode V31. A line termination resistor R43 is connected from
the line 101 connection to ground.
A data detector 114, similar in construction to
detector 109 but oppositely polarized, is also connected to
transmission line 102 through a blocking diode D34. The
collector of the transistor element in the photoisolator 115
of detector 114 is connected to a data output pin 19 of
connector 87B through two series connected Schmitt trigger
circuits Z33 and Z34.

In considering operation of the circuits of power/
data board 83, Fig. 10, sync detector 109 makes a good starting
point~ Upon the occurrence of each negative-going power pulse
106 on line 102 (see Fig~ 11) capacitor C40 is charged negatively
and, after a predetermined interval, the LED portion of photo-
isolator 110 is energized. This produces an output signal
~rom the transistor element of photoisolator 110, a signal
that persists for a limited time interval after the end of
the input pulse from line 102 due to the stored charge on
capacitor C40. The output of photoisolator 110 is converted
to a sync pulse of given amplitude and waveform by trigger
circuits Z31 and Z32 and supplied to the data processing
board 82 via pin 20 of connector 87B.
The same sync pulses are applied to N~D gate Z36;
whenever a sync pulse coincides with a data signal from the
processing board (pin 17 of connector 87B) gate Z36 goes
conductive to energize the LEDs in photoisolators 111 and
112. The two photoisolators actuate the complementary
amplifiers Q31 and Q3Z to complete a connection from the -12
volt supply, regulator RG3, to line 101, transmitting a
negative 12 volt pulse (107-1, Fig. 11) representative of a
binary one to the polling processor. When the sync pulse from
detector 109 occurs in the absence of a data pulse input to
gate Z36, photosiolators 111 and 112 an~ amplifiers Q31 and
Q32 remain inactivated and the signal on line 101 is a binary
zero (see pulses 107-0 in Fig~ 11).
Detector 114 operates in the same manner as detector
106 except that it entails no time delay and responds only to
positive pulses on line-102, these being the pulses 108-1 of
FigO 11. Each time one of these data pulses is received on
- 35 -

i6
line 102, it is detected by detector 114 and supplied to
the data processing board ~2 through the threshold-establishing
Schmitt trigger circuits Z33 and Z34 and pin 19 o~ connector
87B.
Fig. 12 affords a block diagram of one of the
~ terminal bus interface units 31 of system 20 (Fig. 1), adapted
for use with the specific circuits and constructions illustrated
in Figs. 2-11. Interface unit 31, in the configuration
shown in Fig. 12, comprises three circuit boards 121, 122 and
123 which in many respects correspond to boards 81-83 of the
individual data terminal units 250 Thus, board 121 is a
keyboard and display unit that may be essentially similar
to board 81 (Fig. 8). However, the simple nine-character
display 63 employed at the work station data terminal may be
replaced by more sophisticated display apparatus, such as a
cathode ray tube display, to permit readout of more detailed
information than at the work stationsO
The data processing board 122 of inter~ace unit 31
(Fig. 12) is basically similar to the data processing board
82 for the individual terminals (Fi~. 9), but with some
additions. Thus, board 122 comprises a microprocessor ~41
connected to a program storage ROM Z42 and a random access
memory Z43. An interface circuit Z44, which can constitute a
programmable serial communication interface unit like Z24
or a more conventional USART unit, conn~cts microprocessor
Z41 to the power/data board 123 for terminal unit 31.
second USART z45 is also connected to microprocessor Z41
as an interface to couple ~he terminal hus interface unit 31
to polling processor 33. Microprocessor Z41 is also connected
to a programmable rate generator æ46 constitutin~ the basic~`
- 36 -

sync signal source for the data terminals connected to this
terminal bus interfac~ unit 31. Circuit Z46 reduces the
operating (sync) fre~uency whenever microprocessor Z41 ascertains
that incoming data from the individual work station terminals
exhibits an unduly high level of errors, and increases that
frsquency, up to a predetermined maximum, whenever the occurrence
of errors is reduced to an acceptable level D That is, the
programmable rate generator Z46, in conjunction with micro~
processor Z41, affords a dynamic transmission control, adjusting
the sync (transmission) frequency in relatively small increments,
over a substantial range, to provide data transmission at the
most rapid rate consistent with an acceptable error level.
Thus, in a system in which the normal operating ~requency on
lines 101-103 is 2000 Hz, a determination by microprocessor Z41
that an undesirably hiyh percentage of the incoming data from
the work station terminals is inaccurate, the sync frequency
is reduced until the error incidence is no longer excessivev
When conditions improve, the sync (transmission) frequency is
again increased.
The power/data board 123 that connects terminal bus
interface 31 to all of the work station terminals served by
the interface ~Fig~ 12) is illustrated in detail in FigO 13.
As shown therein, the sync signal circuit 129 from programmable
rate generator Z46 is connected to the LED portions of four
photoisolators 131 through 134 through four trigyer circuits
Z51 through Z54. The anodes of ~he LEDs in photoisolators
131-134 are returned to a ~5 volt supply through four resistors
R75 through ~78.
The collector of the phototransistor in device 131
is connected to the collector of a transistor amplifier Q61

and to a ~48 voLt supply. The emitter of the phototransistox
is connected to the base of transistor amplifier Q61~ The
emitter of transistor amplifier Q61 is connected bac* to the
base through a resistor R71. It will be recognized that this
is essentially the same kind of switching circuit as that
incorporating the photoisolator 112 in the data terminal
power/data board 83 (FigO 10)~
In board 123, Fig. 13, the switching amplifier Q61
is connected throu gh two diodes D61 and D62 ~o the base
electrodes of two power switching transist~rs Q51 and Q520
The collector of transistor Q51 is connected to a ~48 volt
line 135 from power supply 32. The emitter of transistor Q51
is connected through a resistor R51 to a power line 137. A
resistor R61 connects line 137 back to the base of transistor
Q51. The configuration for switching transistor Q52 is the
same, incorporating a c~oupling resistor R52 and a feedback
resistor R62.
The circuit for photoisolator 132 is tha same as
for photoisolator 131 except that it is of complementary
20 configuration as regards transistor amplifier Q62 and power
switching tran sistors Q53 and Q54 The collectors of the
power switching transistors Q53 and Q54 are connected to a
conductor 138 that is in turn connected to transmission line
101 through a diode D51.
The power switching circuitry for the other data
transmission line 102, controlled by photoisolators 133 and
134, amplifiers Q63 and Q64, and power switching transistors
Q55 ~hrough Q58, is the same as for the positive power supply~,
In this instance, the po~7er input is from a line 136 connected
to power supply 32 and the power conne~tion to line 102 is

made through a blocking diode D53.
The circuit ~or transmitting data from the individual
work station terminals through the power/data board 123 of
the terminal bus interfac~, Fig. 13, starts with transmission
line 101 and extends through a blocking diode D52 and through
a line termination and clamp circuit comprising resistors R91,
- R92, and R93 and a Zener diode D91 to the LED element of a
photoisolator 137. The phototransistor in photoisolator 137
has its collector connected to a +5 volt supply through a
resistor R94. The emitter is groundedO The collector is
connected through two Schmitt trigger circuits Z59 and Z60,
in series, to a data line 201 that connects to the processor
board 122 (FigO 12)o It will be recognized that photo-
isolator 137, Fig. 13, constitutes a detector essentially
similar to detector 114 in the data terminal board 83, Fig. 10.
Data transmission from the polling processor to
the work station terminals, through the terminal bus interface
power/data board 123 of Fig. 13, starts at line 202 from
US~RT Z44 (see Fig. 12). Line 202 constitutes one input to
an AND gate ~56, the second input to gate Z56 being the sync
pulses from line 129, which are coupled to the AMD gate
through a schmitt trigger circuit Z55O The output of A~D gate
Z56 is connected through two inverter driver circuits Z57 and
Z58 to the LED portions o~ two photoisolators 145 and 146.
The L~Ds of the two photoisolators are returned to a ~5 volt
supply th~ ugh two resistors R85 and R86~
In photoisolator 146, the phototransistor collector
is ~onnected to the ~48 volt supply and the emit~er is
connected to the base of a transistor Q66. The collector o~
transistor Q66 is connected to the ~48 volt supply and the
- 39 -

emitter is cvnnected to the base of a transistor Q600 Theemitter of transistor Q66 is connected back to the base
through a resistor ~84. The collector of transistor Q60 is
- connected to the +48 volt supply. The emitter is connected
back to the base through a resistor R82. The circuit connected
to photoisolator 145 is complementary in construction and
includes a first transistor Q65~ a second transistor Q59, and
two resistors R81 and R83. The emitters of ~he two transistors
Q59 and Q60 are connected together and the collector of
transistor Q59 is connected through a blocking diode D54 to
the main transmission line 102
For power transmission to the data terminals, each
sync pulse received from rate generator Z46 on line 129 actuates
the four photoisolators 131-134 to drive the associated
transistor amplifiers Q61 through Q64 to conduction. The
outputs of these four amplifiers t in turn, actuate all of the
power switching transistors Q51 through Q58 to conductive
condition. Accordingly, txansmission line 101 is connected
to the ~48 volt power line 135 through the power switching
transistors Q51-Q54 and transmission line 102 is connected to
the -48 volt power line 136 through the power switching
transistors Q55-Q580
For data pulses, the circuits o board 123 ~unction
in essentially the same manner as those of board 83. ~egative-
going data pulses received from the work station data terminals
on line 101 are passed through diode D52 to the detector
comprising photoisolator 137 and trigger circuits Z59 and Z60
and are then transmitted on line 201 to processor board 12Z
(Fig. 12). Data from the polling processor, received rom
data ~oard 122 on line 202, actuates A~D gate Z56 in synchronism

As an aid to understanding of the operation of
the specific data acquisition system shown in Figs. 2 through

Routine operation of the system disclosed in Figs.

hence need not be repeated in detail. The operational program
for each o~ the work station data terminals 24, recorded in
the ROM Z22 (Fig. 9) at each terminal~ is set forth hereinafter~
However, some supplementation and clarification of the ;
operating procedure, and some additional features of the system
of Figs. 2-14~ merit consideration.

Each time the work station operator scans one of
the identification cards 36, 41, or 43, in scanner 26 (Figs.
2, 5 and 6) the display 63 on the face of the recorder
transmitter unit 25 (Figs. 2 and 3) flashes a message to the
operator. The messages, which depend upon the cards scanned
and the sequence, are shown in Table I. If the operator pulls
the card through scanner 26 too 510wly, the "ERROR~' display
IS given and the operator knows that the card must be scanned
again. This is e~ually true with respect to a movement of
the card through the scanner that is too rapid. However, as
noted above, scanner 26 can accommodate card movements at a
variety of speeds~ The portion of the program for micro-
processor Z22 (Fig. 9) that interpr~ts the card scan is
identified by the heading
The program for the microprocessor also causes the
data terminal to display "ERROR" if the operator lifts the
card from the scanner before the scan is completed or if
any other error in scanning occurs~ such as a missed or extra digit.
As noted above, when an operator identification card
41 is scanned at the start of a work period, the operator
identification-is retained in storage in RAM Z23 until the
same operator scans the same identification card on leaving
the work station~ In the interim, if the operator leaves the
work station for a brief period, as to obtain additional
workpiece units or for other reasons, another operator might attempt
fraudulently to obtain credit for the first operator's work by
passing his own ID card 41 through the scanner at the work
station of the first operator. This contingency is met in
the data terminal program, which rejects any operator ~`
identification data once an operator has checked in at the
; - ~4 ~

work station and has not checked out~ ~11 that happens on
scanning of a second operator's identification member 41,
after a first operator has already checked in at the work
station, is an error determination with appropriate display.
The proyram for each data terminal also effectively
precludes operator entry of at least certain classes of data
through keyboard 67. Thus, data entry through keyboard 67 is
limited except when a specially coded supervisor's identifi-
cation card has been passed through scanner 26. By this
technique, each da~a terminal is adapted to supervisory entry
of specialized information, such as messages indicating that
an operator has been given pexmission to leave early, an
operator has been given permission to work overtime, or a
rate or other payment change is to be made due to specialized
content of workpiece units or the like, without permitting
the entry of such information by the work station operator.
The program restricts entry of such specialized data to a
foreman or other supervisor.
Each station operator is always informed with
respect to effective operation of the data terminal 24 at the
work station. Each good entry of data is signalled both by
display 63 and by a brief audible signal from device 66.
Indicator lamp 64 tells the operator when recorded information
has been passed on to the polling processor and the terminal
is clear to receive additional informa~ion. Indicator lamp 65
tells the operator that the data terminal is on line and
functioning properly, being polled appropriately by polling
processor 33; if indicator lamp 65 goes out at any time, the
operator can report a malfunctioning data terminal promptly
to the appropriate supervisory personnel
- 45 - ~;

~L2~3~6~i
Whenever a malfunction of the production apparatus
23 at a given work station (Fig. 1) occurs, a foreman or
mechanic can report this situation through keyboard 67, first
scanning the special foreman's or mechanic's identification
card to enable use of the keyboard for this purpose. The card
- of a mechanic may be encoded to preclude use of the keyboard
for other functions limited to codes intended for use only
by a foreman or other supervisory personnel.
The data acquisition system of the invention is
especially appropriate and advantageous as applied to a garment
sewing shop or other production facility in which the operations
at each work station are typically of short duration performed
by sedentary operators working on relatively low cost equipment,
with a large number of work stations present in the facility.
The individual data terminals 24 do not require separate power
supplies, all power requirements being met by transmission
from the central powar supply 32. This permits a substantial
reduction in the cost of individual terminals. on the other
hand, the forty-eight volt ~C power supply 32, with adequate
capacity to serve a large number of data terminals, is not
particularly e~pensive because equipment of this kind has
long been available for telephone service. Moreover, a standby
battery fox power supply 32, allowing orderly shutdown of the
data acquisition system without data loss in the event of a
power failure~ can be incorporated in the system at only
moderate cost.
The simple three~wire transmission system used by
the data acquisition apparatu~ of the present invention i~
readily available from a number of sources and is much lower
in cost than any arrangement using dedicated wiring, coaxial
- 46 -'

6~;
cable, or the like. This simple transmission arrangement,
which handles both power and data, allows any work station to
be moved to any location in the shop and immediately connected
to the data acquisition system simply by plugging connector 28
into the nearest data system bus 29, provided the capacity of
the polling processor is not exceeded. Consequently, relocation
of work stations to meet changing work requirements is
accommodated by the system in a matter of minutes~
The high amplitude ttwelve volts) pulses used for
data transmission in the system are of material value in
eliminating errors due to field coupling to adjacent electrical
equipment and like sources. Any noise entering the system
must be of high amplitude, of the proper polarity, and must
coincide with the time slots reserved for data transmission
in order to produce any errors. The specific system of Figs.
2-14 afords an overall signal-to-noise ratio high enough so
that the loss of significant data is most unlikely. In an
extremely noisy facility, even this high level of performance
can be improved by increasing the amplitude of the data pulses;
an increase to twenty-four volts can be accompLished with
little change in the e~uipment.
Initiation and propagation of error in the system
~are minimized by appropriate checks, performed locally at
the data ~erminals~ These error determinations typically
include checks of length, sequence, and presence or absence
of check digits in the input data; see the accompanying data
terminal program~ For analog inputs to the system, as
discussed hereinafter, the integrity of the system is maintained ~-
by conversion of data to digital at the data terminals prior
to any processing. Because there is no keyboard entry of data `~
~ i
~ 4

~3L2~66
in normal system operation, and the keyboard is locked out
for normal system functions, erron~ous data entry through
keyboard errors is effectively eliminated.
The data acquisition system of the invention collects
complete information on the location and status of all workpiece
units, on a real-time basis, continuously through each work
shift. Thus, the data supplied to the host computer makes it
possible, at any given time, to determine the location of each
workpiece unit in the shop. on the other hand, collection of
this information requires no exercise of clerical skill on the
part of the work station operators. The highly "intelligenk"
data terminals obtain all essential information, covering work
station identity, operator identity and workpiece identity,
by simple scanning of inexpensive identification members
through procedures requiring no specialized skill on the
part of the operatorsO Complete payroll information as well
as workpiece information is continuously maintained by the
system on a real-time basis.
one of the highly useful attributes of the system of
Figs. 2-14 is that the basic functions are soft-coded. Hard-
wired logic, used in many previous systems, is generally
eliminated in favor of software as a basis for processing and
-control. The principal units o~ the system are not dedicated
to a specific function or to a given machine. This adds materially
to the versatility of the systemr Further system ~unctions
can be added by using additional identification members or by
adding external inputs, either analog or digital. For example,
the system can be of appreciable value in connection with
time study operations. Furthermore, the system can be readily
- 30 adapted to monitoring of a number o~ other kinds of information

O and to us8 of a variety of different input devices as explained
more fully hereinafter.
It is not essential that each data terminal include
a keyboard 67 (Figs. 2, 3, 8) because, as noted above, the
keyboard is not required for and does not enter into normal
system operation. To preserve the capi~bility for entry of
special data, while reducing the cost of the individual data
terminals, the keypad may be replaced by a connector at each
terminal. Keyboard data entry can then be accomplished by use
of a portable keyboard e~uipped with a mating connector;
modern keypads are small and compact enough to be carried in
a supervisor's pocket and present no substantial problem in
this regard.
Because the invention is primarily concerned with
data ac~uisition, not data processing, no explicit data
regarding the internal construction of polling processor 33
or host computer 34 is incorporated herein~ Computer 34 may
constitute any general purpose computer, suitably programmed,
and may encompass the functions of polling processor 33.
on the other hand, polling processor 33 may itself be a small
general purpose computer. For increased protection against
any malfunction at the polling processor~ that unit may
constitute two or more small general purpose computers, such
as Intel model SBC 80/20-4, in a redundant arrangement to
; protect against system outage.
In order to afford a more complete disclosure of
the specific system of Figs. 2-14, detailed circuit data relating
to the system is set forth in Tahle III. ~ should be understood
that this information is presented merely by way of illustration
and in no sense as a limitation on the invention.

. FigO 15 illustrates a modification of the system of
Figs. 2-13 for use in a system in which the basic input to
data terminals 24 (Fig. 1) is derived from a bar code instead
of the aperture code used in identification members 38, 41
and 43. A standard two-of-five black and white bar code is
assumed~ As beore, the identification members preferably
pxovide human readable data as well as scannable data~ For
this modification of the system, the circuits connected
2~ between pins 6, 8 and 9 of connector 99A and pin 10 of
connector 87B in the power/data board 83, Fig. 10, are all
omitted, and board 83 is modified to incorporate the input
circuit 83~ of Fig~ 15O --
Circuit 83A, Fig. 15, includes an analog-to-digital
converter Z51 having its output terminals connected to tho
- pins 8-16 and 18 of the connector 87B that constitute data
input connections to R~M z23 in processor board 82, Fig~ 9.
Appropriate constant-voltage inputs to converter Z51 are
provided from the:~12 volt and -12 volt supplies afforded by
- 30 regulators RGl and RG3 (Fig. 10) by mean3 of aircuit~
-52

66
including the resistors R101 through R10a~. These supply
voltage circuits for converter z51 include an additional ~5V
reyulator RG5. Converter Z51 of circuit 83~, Fig. 15, also
includes a clock inpu~, based upon the clock signal available
from pin 7 of connector 87B. The clock input circuit includes
a J-K flip-flop Z52 employed as a frequency divider to afford
a clock input to converter z51 at one-half the frequency of
the clock signal from microprocessor Z21, Fig. 9.
~n analog input to converter Z51, Fig. 15, is derived
10 through a potentiometer R105 connected, in this instance, to
the output of a bar code scanner 111. Scanner 111 may comprise
a ligh pen scanner employing the construction described in
United States Patents Nos. 3,784,794 and 3,892,974 and comprises
a light emitting diode 112, a phototransistor 113, and an
amplifier 114. Connections to scanner 111 are provided through
a connector llO~-llOB, including appropriate connections to
the requisite power supply voltagas. Scanner 111, as illus-
trated in Fig. 15, may comprise the Model 1230 light pen
scanner, available from Interface Mechanisms Inc. of Mountlake
20 Terrace, Washington. If desiredO the components of that
scanner may be mounted within a slotted block or frame as
described above for scanner 26 (Figs. 5 and 6).
In operation, using bar code scanner 111, the
input circuit 83~ of Fig. 15 provides an analog signal input
to converter Z51. The analog signal input is converted to
a series of digital output signals that are supplied to
random access memory z23 (Fig.9) through connector 87B, 87B.
Microprocessor Z21, Fig. 9, is appropriately programmed to
utilize the digital signals derived from converter Z51 for
30 interpretation of the bar code scanned by scanner lll. Thus,
s -- 53

1~8~
the circuit 83A of Fig. 15 converts the analog signal from
scanner 111 to a digital signal that can be effectively
processed in the system and allows for a change of identifica-
tion members from the punched cards described above to black
and white bar code identification members. The same circuit
83A can be used, without substantial change, with a magnetic
code scanner~ Furthermore, the same circuit can be used with
a variety of other different analog input devices (e.g~,
pressure transducers, temperatura transducers) to allow for
additional data inputs to the data acquisition systemO
Indeed~ the punched card scanner of Figs. 5-7 can be employed
with the conversion circuit 83A of Fig~ 15. In each instance,
of course, the data terminal microprocessor must be suitably
programmed for interpretation and veriication of the daka
supplied to converter Z510
To provide a more complete disclosure of the
conversion circuit 83~, Fig. 15, detailed circuit data is set
forth below in Table IV. This information is presented solely
for purposes of illustration and in no sense as a limitation
on the invention.

FigO 16 is a simplified blocX diayram of a poink-
of-manufacture data acquisition system 220 constructed in
accordance with another embodiment of the present inventionO
System 220 includes marly elements corresponding directly to
those of the previously described system 20; like system 20,
system 220 is utilized in a production facility having a series
of work stations with a multiplicity of workpiece units moving
through those stations for performance of a sequence of
manufacturing or other process operationsO Fig. 16 shows a
part of one series of work stations 221-1 through 221-8; it
should be understood that there are additional work stations
in the same series and that system 220 would also include one
or more additional series of work stations. ~s before~ each
work station includes a production apparatus 23 which, in a
garment sewing shop, could be a sewing machine, a buttonhole
cutting and sewing apparatus~ a press, or other equipmentO
System 220 employs workpiece" operator, and shop operation
identification members 37, 41, and 43 clorresporlding
essentially to those described above (Figs. 1 and 4).
In system 220, Fig. 16, a scanner 226 is located at
each of the work stationsO The scanners 226 for the work
stations 221-1 through 221-4 are each eleckrically connected
to a recorder/transmitter unit 225A that is in turn connected
by a local three-wire power/data cable 27 and a connector plug
28 to a power/data transmission line 29. Sîmilarly, the
scanners 226 for the work stations 221~5 through 221-8 are
each connected to a recorder/transmitter unit 225B that is
electrically connected to the three-wire bus 29 by a local
cable 27 and connector 28. The main bus 29 is connected to
a terminal bus interface circuit 31; system 220 also includes
:~ .
-- 55

Z~6~
another main bus 29 connectPd to a second terminal bus inter-
face circuit 31. The terminal bus interface circuits 31 are
connected to a common power supply 32 and to a polling
processor 33. Polling processor 33 is coupled to a central
computer 34 and to appropriate auxiliary e~uipment 35. It
will be recognized that the portion of system 220 comprising
circuits 29 and 31 through 35 is the same as in the previously
described embodiment.
! The recorder/transmitter units 225~ and 225B of
system 220 are essentially similar to the recorder/transmitter
units 25 of s~stsm 200 Units 225~ and 225B each should incorporate
adequate storage for all of the work station scanners connected
thereto, and some form of programming (hardware or software)
to distinguish the woxk stations.
The work station scanners 226 may be essentially
similar in construction to the scanner 26 described above in
conjunction with Figs. 5-7. Preferably, however, scanners 226
are each provided with some minimal indicator capability,
shown as two .indicator lamps 264 and 265. If desired, each
scanner 226 may also be equipped with an audible alarm 266~
a data display 263, and a keypad 267, or any desired combina-
tion of such devices. In system 220, if the scanners provide
only the lamps 264,265 for signalling to the work station
operator, lamp 264 may be employed to indicate that data
previously entered in recorder/transmitter (225~ or 225B) from
the associated work station has been transmitted to the polling
pro~essor 33 so that additional data can be entered~ Lamp
265 may be utilized to indicate to the work station operator
that scanning of one of the identi~ication members 37,41 or
43 has been effective and has resulted in the entry of valid
- 5~ -

information in the recorder/transmitter. If all of the
devices 263-266 are present at each scanner, their operation
may be as described above for devices 63-66. of course,
variations on these indicator functions are readily applicable.
As previously noted, the internal circuitry of
recorder/transmitter unit 225~ (and the similar unit 225B) may
be essentially similar to unit 25 as described above, with the
relatively minor addition of internal logic to recognize the
individual scanners 226 of the different work stations in tha
group 221-1 through 221~4 and perhaps some increase in storage
; capacity. In effect, therefore, each scanner 226, taken in
conjunction with its associated recorder/transmitter unit 225A
or 225B, affords a complete data terminal for one of the work
stations. Stated differently, each recorder/transmitter unit
is common to a group of data terminals for the individual
work stations, whereas a separate scanner i5 provided at each
work stationO
The operation of system 220, Fig. 16 is essentially
the same as described above in detail for system 20. on the
other hand, system 220 may be somewhat more economical than
system 20 because each recorder~transmitter unit in system 220
serves several work stations. ~evertheless, system 220 allows
effective entry, on a real time basis, of operator identity,
shop operation identification, and workpiece unit identifica-
tion, with start and finish of work on each workpiece unit,
simply by scanning of the systam identification membarsu
~ lthough each of the recorder/transmitter units
225~ and 225B in Fig. 16 is shown as a part of the data
terminals for a group of our wor~ stations, that num~er may
vary substantially~ The number o~ st~tions grouped through

one recorder/transmitter unit depends to a large extent on
such practical considerations as the space requirements for
each work station, khe complexity of the inormation trans-
mitted through the system, and the like; usually, the
number of work stations grouped with one recorder/transmitter
unit will be eight or less because larger groups require more
complex inter-group wiring with consequent minimization of
the cost advantage derived from grouping. It may be
convenient to provide an additional scanner (not shown),
with a keypad, directly associated with each recorder/
transmitter unit, such as units 225A and 225B, for use by a
supervisor or mechanic, independent of the work station
scanners 226.
In either system 20 or system 220, it may be
desirable to provîde for connection of a supervisory control
terminal at various locations around the system; such a
terminal may also be used for diagnostic purposes without
interrupting system operation. Because the system provides
both power and data transmission over the basic three-wira
busses 29, this is a relatively simple matter. The supervisory
terminal requires only the same basic circuits as employed
in recording~transmitting units 25 and 225, with limited
modification to accommodatè a more comprehensive display
such as a cathode ray tube display.
~ typical operating program for the data terminals
24 of system 20, Figs. 1~14, when using the punched card
identification members 38, 41 and 43 (Fig. l)o scanner 26
(Figs. 5-7) and the unmodified circuit 83 of Fig. 10, is as
~ollows:

The foregoing program is based upon a standard
two of five code as sensed by scanner lllo It will be
recognized that the foregoing programs may be modified for
use with other transducer inputs, including transducers for
sensing temperatures, pressures, or other quantities.
For all modifications of the system, local
"intelligent" terminals, kept high]y versatile through use
of software programming for individual microprocessors, are
employedO Mixed data systems are readily achieved, with
different kinds of input data handled accurately and efficiently;
one or two lead digits can be assigned to identify different
kinds of data such as workpiece unit identification, operator
i~entification, supervisor identification, machine data7 etcO
Local verification of data type, length, and sequence,
achieved again through software programming, reduces the
burden on the polling processor and allows economical
redundancy for that part of the system. Data terminals are
readily relocated by a simple plug-in procedure to the
combined power/data bus. Operator requirements, for training
and sk}ll, are negligibleO
