Patent Searching and Data


Title:
【発明の名称】電子媒体テープの内容をログするための装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2575254
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
An apparatus for recording identifying data of electronic media-taped material is provided in two embodiments: mechanical and electronic. An example mechanical embodiment has a rectangular case with dimensions approximating those of a video cassette container, to facilitate compatible storage. Movable slides are mounted within the case, with icons on their upper surfaces, identifying status and subjects relating to tape condition and recorded material, respectively. The case front comprises a panel face, window, slots, and labels. Tabs project through the slots and provide means to set current tape status and material subject icons in the display window for selected tape time slots. During retrieval of material previously recorded, the operator determines taped material subject and duration, recorder counter reading, and time slot status by viewing the state/subject icons displayed, in relation to panel face labels. An example electronic embodiment has a thin, rectangular case, for convenient fit in one hand of the operator. The case holds electronic/electrical parts, including power supply, microcontroller, external RAM, LCD, display controller/drivers, and keyboard. The unit provides capability to store, via keyboard input, the current set-up code (for selected tape type and recorder tape speed setting) and status/subject information, which is held in continuously powered external RAM until needed for output retrieval/monitoring or change. Each unit case carries legends, as appropriate, identifying useful information; e.g., instructions, icon key, specifications, display map, state and subject settings, and time slot availability list.
