Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate operation and to simplify the constitution of a system, by converting an input signa from a keyboard into a code according to a code conversion table and storing and displaying the code, and also inputting it directly to an electronic computer. CONSTITUTION:When alphabet, number, and KANA (Japanese syllabary) characters and signals from a line end key, and a row and a column shift key are inputted from a keyboard KB, they are converted into codes by code conversion CDC while referring to the code conversion table CTB. A record generation part RCD adds a record number to obtain a generation record. Three - five lines of data are brought under display control DSC during input from the KB and are checked while displaying on a display DSP. The codes are transferred from a generation record part to a memory MM under memory control MC and are sent to a host CPU through an external sending circuit OCT. Further, they may be written in a CPU by referring to MM generated at distance. Consequently, the need for punching is eliminated and a code writing place is not limited to simplify the system.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) Technical Summary of the Invention The present invention relates to a code writing device for operating an electronic computer that is integrated into a housing without using a card.

(2) Background of the technology and prior art The programming language or language that usually describes the language that controls the flow of input jobs (7 Otran).

Conventionally, when converting code (such as Kobol, etc.) into a code for computer operation, the process was carried out using coding paper. That is, a puncher looks at a sheet of paper written in a normal language and punches a predetermined card. The card is placed in a card reader for computer operation to perform a predetermined operation. Alternatively, an operator goes to a terminal device with a display device of a JL equipped with a computer, 1. While looking at the display device, 1. Performs operations in normal language by pressing keys. 1. The computer converts and analyzes input signals and performs its own operations. He kept asking me to go.

Therefore, in the former case, the time required is long due to the intervention of a puncher, and in the latter case, since the number of terminals is limited, there is a disadvantage that the processing is delayed and adding more terminals becomes expensive.

(3) Purpose of the invention The purpose of the present invention is to
It is an object of the present invention to provide a code writing device that can create operable code for an L child computer.

(4) Structure of the Invention The present invention includes a code conversion unit that converts an input signal from a keyboard into a code by referring to a code conversion table, and generates a J-code for recording on a recording medium from the output of the code conversion unit. It is composed of a record generation section, a display device that displays the generated records, and a nonvolatile storage device that records the generated records.

(5) Embodiment of the invention FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the invention.
KB is the keyboard, CDC is the code conversion unit, and GT8 is the code conversion table.

RCD is a record generation unit, n and sc are display control circuits, DIP is a display device, MC is a storage device control circuit, and MM is a nonvolatile storage device. If the storage device is of a cassette type using, for example, a bubble memory, the entire device can be made smaller than the K and housed in a desktop type case. Note that if a commercial power source is used as the power source, the configuration will be simple. Keyboard KB has a 1-line start key for inputting a code indicating the start of a record line in addition to regular keys such as alphabets, numbers, and kana characters, and a ``line end key'' for inputting a code indicating the end of 1 line. 1 "Line shift key" to move the displayed line and input line forward or backward on the display device
, a column shift key 1 is provided to move the input starting column.

When the converted code is generated as a code, it is formed by providing various control symbols before and after predetermined input data, as illustrated in FIG. That is, when symbols and data are input in a predetermined order from the input keyboard, the signals are coded by the code converter ODC while referring to the code conversion table GTB. In the record generation section
A predetermined process such as adding a record number is performed to obtain the generated record shown in FIG. When inputting from the keyboard, the display device D8P displays 5 to 5 lines, allowing you to continue inputting while checking.

When sending the code to the next Kw child computer, the record in the storage device MM is read and sent via the external output circuit OCT. The electronic computer side receives the record via a predetermined interface, decodes it, and performs processing operations corresponding to the data portion.

(6) Effects of the invention - According to the present invention, since a nonvolatile storage device is used, the code is written in a location away from the computer, for example, on a design office desk, and the writing device is disconnected from the commercial power source. If you bring the device near the computer and make the specified connections, you can immediately send a specified signal to the computer. Therefore, there is no need for a puncher compared to conventional methods.
Moreover, since the location of code writing processing is not limited, the system configuration can be made inexpensive.
