The operation of the character entry register can be explained easily.
(The character entry and readout registers are both located on circuit board A 13. )
Assume that the desired message is the word
I
CAT
t
and that the
I
C
I
(in the
form of six-bit digital information) is already circulating in the refresh memory
and is on display.
When the
t
C
I
was entered, the cursor automatically stepped
right one character slot.
When the
I
A
I
key on keyboard assembly A 11 is pressed.
the six digital bits, 10000 I, are applied simultaneously to the character entry
register. which consists of one AND gate for each of these six bits followed by
one flip-flop (or register) for each of these six bits (figure 3-10).
When the six
AND gates receive the
I
write 'pulse (this will happen immediately after the
I
C
I
passes through the character entry register because the curSor appears in the
next character slot), the six bits will be inserted into the flip-flops and will be
shifted at the phase 2 clock-pulse rate through the editing logic into refresh
storage (figure 3-18).
