Y., a corporation of Delaware Application March 10, 1943, Serial No. 478,700 In France May 28, 1941 'The present invention refers to signaling systems and particularly to signaling systems for the remote transmission of codes capable of being used for purposes of remote metering, remote control, remote indication, and the like, by means of an ordinary telephone line which can also be used for the transmission of telephone calls and messages.
One object of the invention is to provide a.
code signaling system of this type in which the codes consist of direct currents of differential intensities and polarities, and are decoded at the receiving station by means of suitably arranged and designed decoding relays.
Another object of the invention is to provide means at each receiving station to send back to the transmitting station an acknowledge signal at the end of the transmission of each code, each transmitting station having means for receiving, decoding and registering the acknowledge signal.
Still another object of the invention is to branch -a telephone speaking circuit, and if desired also a ringing circuit to the line, preferably insuch a manner that the decoding relays are not influenced by any speaking or ringing currents transmitted.
These and other objects are accomplished, ac
cording to the present invention, by the arrangement and combination of elements set forth in' the following description, defined in the appended claims and illustratively exemplified in the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1- is a wiring diagram of one station of a signaling system according to the invention;

Fig.4 is a wiringdiagram of a similar telephone circuit including means to effect ringing with an alternatingcurrent.
' The equipment of only one of the two con- '7 Claims. 179-2) shown comprises four decoding relays, A, B, C, D.
Relays A and B are connected in a decoding circuit loop to one of the wires of line L and relays C and D to the other wire over contacts I and 3 of a reversing switch L1 in the normal, receiving,
position of the latter. The decoding relays are polarized, either by their design or, as shown in Fig. 1', by the connection in parallel to their windings of unidirectional conductors R, such as dry rectifiers, or else as shown in the alternative of Fig. 1A, by the placing in series with theirwindings of unidirectional conductors R. Two relays A and C are arranged to'operate when a current of certain value passes through their windings and the remaining relays B and D, when a current of a different value, c. g., of higher value passes through them.
The four code signals used are indicated in the drawing by the graphical representation bracketed under wires a and b, Whichare connected to the normally open contacts 2 and 4 of the reversing switch I1. The four codes consist of currents of different polarities and of different strengths. For this purpose, code-sending wires a and 1) maybe connected to a'battery by means of a code selecting switch (not shown) whereby the battery can be connected, either with one polarity or with an inverse polarity, to the wires may not be inserted betweenthe battery and wires a and b according to the positions of the code selecting switch.
When the code selecting switch has closed a circuit a, b in one of its operating positions, for example to the positive battery for wire a and to the negative for wire b without the insertion of any resistances (code 3), and reversing switch 11 has closed contacts 2 and 4, disconnecting at the same time relays A, B,'C, D at the transmitting station from line L, the battery loop is closed 3 over line L and contacts I and 3 of the receiving station to the four relays A, B, C, D of the receiving station. One of these relays (for instance D), which is sensitive to the strength and the direction of the current thus transmitted, operates and, through its contact, records the code transmitted. It is evident that in this example, as in the following ones, the four unit figure adopted for the codes is given only as an illustration and that as many codes may be provided as desired by inserting a corresponding number of resistances of different values between thebat'tery and wires a, b through the'c'ode-selectingswitch. At the same time as the operation of relay D, relay 4 and corresponding auxiliary relay are operated, is thought to be fully evident from the circuit shown in Fig. 2.
In the arrangement shown in Fig. 2, each of 5 the normal decoding relays A to C is associated with a relay A to C each having one terminal thereof connected through a front contact of the corresponding A to C relay to one of the terminals of a battery, while the other terminal of each relay A to C is connected to the other terminal of thebattery. As a result, one of the relays AKB? or C operates'at the receiving stati'oni'deperrding upon whi'ch"on'eof the relays A, B or C has been energized by the code trans- C will also operate, so that the code is here repre-" niitted. The front contacts of relays A, B and sented by the simultaneous operation of relaysq and D, in distinction from the code'represented by the operation of relay 0 alone. In order to have assurance atthe sending station that the code signal transmitted 'has' been" recorded correctly, means may be provided at the receiving station to send backtojthe sending sta-" tion an acknowledge signal at the end of'ieach code transmitted. An example of a station circuit C; are connected in parallel to the winding of a relay D which is thus always energized regardless of which one of the relays A, B or C is operated. "At its front contact, relay D prepares theienergizin g circ t; of an acknowledge relay D" having back'contacts which are normally inserted in: the wires of line L.
7 "Relay D? is a slow release relay. Consequently,

The call is received at the called station by a hell or" a lamp panel S that is normally placed 7 in' circuit with ground return by the back conposition, i. e., while reversing switch I1 is not operated. The code relays are not traversed by any current during the transmission of the telephone ringing or speaking current because the two line wires remain at the same electric potential. Further, since the return of the telephone circuit is provided by the ground, telephone conversation and ringing always remain possible, even if one of the wires of line L should be broken.
