  • This selection table is for example made up of part of the working memory, and is used to temporarily store the selected messages, for example by means of the addresses at which they are stored in the reception memory.
  • 102 RD-SEL reading of the binary word identifying the choice of the user. In the event that this choice involves a union or intersection operation, only the part referring to the choice of a route or a region will be taken into consideration during this stage.

  • the data processing unit will scan the first column of the region table and / or the route table, as the user chooses, to check if there are messages for the region or route that the user has chosen. To this end, the data processing unit compares, for example, each word in this first column with the binary word received and, when the comparison is positive, the addresses stored in the row where the required route or region is located. are collected. 106 ST-COMM the content of the selection table is compared with the addresses taken from the row identified in step 105 and, since an intersection operation is required, only those addresses which are as well in the selection in the row marked are kept in the selection table, the others are deleted.
  • the keyboard will encode the signals of these keys and form one or more binary words which it sends to the data processing unit, which will then start the execution of the selection program by erasing the content of the selection table (step 101).
  • Data processing unit will then read part A8 of the choice and the content of the selection table. Since the first part of the driver selection is always a union operation, the data processing unit will, after execution of step 104, go to step 107 where it will check if there are messages for the A8 motorway stored in the route table and where it will find these messages in the first row.

Since all the choice has now been taken into consideration (step 109) the data processing unit goes to subroutine 110 to present to the driver the messages stored at addresses 12, 34 and 38 of the reception memory. Since the TDC key has not been used, the selection program has ended.
  • a union or intersection operation is not limited to a region and a route but that it can be extended to several choices, such as for example (B2 U B5) (A8 U RN64) or the symbol U indicates a union operation and the symbol ⁇ an intersection operation. Such a choice will then require several courses in the selection program.
  • the choice of the user can also be formulated as follows. Indeed one can imagine that when a driver is going to take a motorway which spans several hundred kilometers, such as for example the A5 motorway in federal Germany, which goes from Darmstadt to Basel, and that when the driver does not will only use part of this highway, for example the part between Heidelberg and Düsseldorf, he will only be interested in road messages concerning the part he is going to take. The driver will then ask using the keyboard, the intersection between A5 and the Heidelberg - Düsseldorf region. If the keyboard would also be able to allow selection on the basis of the exit numbers of a motorway, it would suffice to type on the keyboard the numbers of the exits concerned.
