T
C ard Read Simultaneous (CRS)
General Description
This instruction reads information from punched cards in the Card Reader, Model 323, into the HSM in the
Simultaneous Mode. Facilities are provided for reading cards at 600, 300 or 200 cards per minute, or for single card
feed on demand. '
Format
Operation — 1
N
Selects the Card Reader, Model 323, and either determines the rate at which cards are to be read
or is used in a card cycle ending routine, according to the following:
Card
Reader
Result
1
Reads single card or terminates continuous card reading cycle (600 cpm)
2
Used in continuous card ending routine (600 cpm)
4
Used in continuous card reading cycle (600 cpm)
M
Used in alternate card reading cycle (300 cpm)
8
Used in alternate card ending routine (300 cpm)
A Address — Address of HSM location to receive the first character read from punched cards.
B Address — Must be zeros (0000).
Direction of Operation
Left to right. .
Outline of Operation
This instruction is initially staticized in the Normal Mode. If the Simultaneous Mode is free and the SMDI
button is not on, the contents of the NOR Register are transferred to the SOR Register and the contents of the
A and B Register are transferred to the S and T Registers, respectively.
This instruction operates in the Simultaneous Mode. Initially and thereafter, as the need arises, this instruction
automatically directs the Card Reader to place one or more cards in the read station and operates on successive
characters in the following cycle:
The character in column one of the punched card is automatically translated from RCA Card Code to RCA
301 code and is placed in the location specified by the S Register. The following 79 characters are placed in successive
locations in HSM. The final character (column 80) is located at (S)j + 79-
In order to maintain the 600 card per minute rate, a card read instruction in which the N character is 4 must be
executed for each card read. The successive Card Read instructions must be staticized before 100 milliseconds have
elapsed. Approximately 80 milliseconds are required to read one card, leaving 20 milliseconds of compute time
between cards.
Continuous card feeding is initiated when N = 4. Since only the first of the three cards in the Card Reader
transport mechanism is read by this instruction, the Continuous Card Reading cycle must be terminated by two Card
Read instructions in which the N characters are 2 and 1 respectively to avoid a "feed" error.
The card feed rate may be accomplished at 300 cards per minute by staticizing successive Card Read instructions
every 200 milliseconds for each card read. The N character in the Card Read instructions must be M. Of this 200
millisecond card cycle, approximately 120 milliseconds are free for computing after the card has been read. This
Alternate Card Reading cycle must be terminated by a Card Read instruction in which the N = 8.
