Abstract

1428704 Data transmission INTERNATIONAL COMPUTERS Ltd 11 April 1974 [13 April 1973] 17866/73 Heading H4K In an arrangement comprising a first program controlled device, e.g. central processor, interconnected by an acceptor line, a source line and a data transfer-path to a second device, e.g. a subsidiary or second processing unit, to ensure that the first device is not held up waiting for the acceptor line to change state, the first device is programmed so that, when it has data to transfer, it periodically examines the acceptor line, continuing with the execution of a program sequence between such examinations, until it finds the acceptor line active, indicating that the second device is ready to receive data, whereupon the first device activates the source line, applies the data to the data path, and then continues with execution of the program sequence, periodically returning to examine the acceptor line to determine whether it has been deactivated, indicating acceptance of the data by the second device, in which case the first device deactivates the source line. Preferably the first device is further programmed so that, when it is ready to receive data, it activates a further acceptor line and then proceeds with execution of a program loop, periodically returning to examine a further source line to determine whether it is active, indicating that the second device is presenting data, in which case the first device reads the presented data from the data path and then deactivates said further acceptor line. In the programmed routine a parity check of received data is made and if incorrect the routine undergoes a further determined number of cycles after which transfer is abandoned and a warning indication given. Operation of the arrangement is described in detail in the Specification.
