Integrated control system for FMS components
Abstract
A solution for coupling NC UPM-772 to SM-1 and SM-2 UVK computers was developed. The solution is based on the fact that in the UPM-772, communications between the computer and the unit for controlling the memory on a cassette magnetic tape BU KNML are organized over a standard type 2K communications channel. Modifying the UPM-772 NC device has the following advantages: practically unlimited memory for control programs; the possibility of correcting existing and synthesizing new control programs in the UVK (control computer); increasing the speed of operation of searching for necessary data on magnetic tape; and higher reliability.
