Filed: 1991-11-29
Abstract: A motor driving control device according to the present invention is one for controlling, for example, a motor (1) for driving an optical system (10) in a copying machine. An encoder (2) is connected to the axis of rotation of the motor (1), and a signal of the encoder (2) is applied to a control circuit (3). The control circuit (3) includes a microcomputer (4), a memory (5) and a driver (6). The microcomputer (4) calculates a rotational speed N and a rotational position ϑ of the motor (1) on the basis of pulses applied from the encoder (2). An acceleration A is stored in the memory (5). The microcomputer (4) calculates a command speed        V = √       2Aϑ     ¯            on the basis of the acceleration A and the calculated rotational position ϑ, and applies the same to a driver (6). The driver (6) outputs a driving signal proportional to the difference between the rotational speed N of the motor and the command speed V. According to the present invention, when the motor (1) is decelerated or accelerated, the speed can be varied in a short time and smoothly.

Abstract: A still camera having at least one motor (14, 15) or a recording circuit (11), in addition to a flash device (17). The flash device includes a charging circuit for accumulating charge. The charging circuit can carry out a charging operation while the motor or the recording circuit is actuated but the charging current is reduced to some extent, so as not to demand an excessive current from a battery power supply and to prevent excessive audible oscillator noise, while minimising the total charging period. The invention is particularly advantageous in electronic still cameras.

Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for automatically selecting an optimum modem protocol in a distributed data processing system which includes a modem which supports multiple protocols which is coupled to a cellular communications system. Known cellular communications systems generate a Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and a Service Access Tone (SAT) which may be utilized by a cellular telephone to determine the amplitude of a received signal and to optimize a path through the cellular communication system for voice communications. The Service Access Tone (SAT) is generally utilized to control the "hand off" of a communication session to a new cell and provides an indication of the quality of the existing path through the cellular communication system. After initiating communication between a first modem and a second modem, the method and system of the present invention automatically determines the channel quality within the cellular communication system by utilizing the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and the Service Access Tone (SAT). These signals are analyzed, in conjunction with the bit error rate of the dotting sequence transmitted by the answering modem, to achieve an indication of the quality of the cellular communications channel. In response to an analysis of these factors a particular protocol may be selected which is optimum for existing channel conditions.
