Abstract: 957,198. Automatic exchange systems; magnetic storage matrices. STANDARD TELEPHONES & CABLES Ltd. Aug. 2, 1960, No. 26748/60. Headings H3B and H4K. Separate magnetic matrices are used as meter stores, Fig. 1, and as class-of-service stores, Fig. 2, for a group of 200 lines, the two stores being operated by separate pulses transmitted over leads P1 to P200 individual to the lines and common to the two stores. Time position T1, T2 and T3, T4 (Fig. 4) are allotted respectively to the class of service store and to the meter store, the time position being marked in the appropriate stores by half-write drive pulses which, unaided, cannot switch a core. A core is switched by a bias pulse, slightly longer than a drive pulse. Class-of-service indicator, Fig. 2.-Each classof-service is represented by one or more columns of cores. Lead P1 from line 1 is linked with two cores indicating that it is a call box (CB) and has a barred trunk restriction (BT). When a free register is seized by line 1, it transmits bias pulses T1, T2 of opposite polarity in succession over P1 and the two cores are switched and restored. Amplified output signals on leads CB1, BT1 act through OR gates to switch toggles CB, BT. The toggles transmit the signals to the register and are restored by a reset pulse as shown. If the registers operate one at a time, no special arrangements are necessary to steer the signal to the correct register. Meter store, Figs. 1 and 3.-Each of the leads P1 to P200 is linked with a column of six cores capable of storing up to 63 units in binary rotation. When a call has matured, the number of bias pulse pairs T3, T4 received signifies the charge. The first bias pulse T3 sets all the cores R1 to R6 to " 0 " and transfers the number n stored therein to an auxiliary store, Fig. 3, comprising toggles TG1 to TG6. The ADD pulse increases the number stored by 1 and the T4 pulse biases transistors TS1 &c. to transfer the number n + 1 to the original store R1 to R6. A reset pulse restores the auxiliary store to normal. The auxiliary store may be common to a number, say 5, of meter stores. The information may be transferred from the store to a central point for automatic accounting.
