ORACLE PHOTOGRAPHIC CURVE PLOTTER AND DIGITAL-OUTPUT DEVICE
R. J. Klein, C. H. Schalbe · 1957
The curve plotter serves as both an output device and as a monitor. As an output device, it can be used to obtain permanent records, in the form of photographs, of curves, data, or stored information all tabulated, labeled, and identified. Photographs are taken automatically at a rate determined by the amount of information displayed and by the film-advance mechanism. A maximum of 200 photographs can be made before the camera has to be reloaded. The monitor or slave scope can be used as a rapid visual check on problem progress, parameter selection, and validity of computations. (auth)
