Abstract

947,991. Electric selective signalling systems. L. G. SIMJIAN. Oct. 9, 1962, No. 38176/62. Drawings to Specification. Heading G4H. In a system dispensing printed indicia (e.g. printing postage validating marks-'stamps'- direct on to envelopes in an office) a remote central station totalises the monetary value of the indicia dispensed. The link between the central station and the dispensing office can be via a conventional telephone channel. The central station can be arranged so that it prevents further indicia being dispensed when the credit for a dispensing office has been exhausted. When several dispensing stations are monitored by the same central station either individual communicating links can be used or a common link can be used with each dispensing office being arranged to precede each of its transmissions by an identifying signal. No detailed circuits are described.
