Abstract: A system and method for calibrating a digital conductivity and temperature measuring system. A connector is interposed between a sensor and transmitter of the digital conductivity and temperature measuring system. A calibrator, which may have selectable resistors with known values, is also attached to the connector. The sensor measures a raw resistance for a selected resistor. The digital conductivity and temperature measuring system then compares the raw resistance to the known value of the resistor to calculate a calibration factor.

Abstract: An improved keyboard assembly is provided wherein a partition is positioned between adjacent keys and prevents an inadvertent simultaneous operation of two or more keys. The paartition can be advantageously utilized to control the cursor moving keys on a word processor keyboard thereby permitting the keys to be closely positioned adjacent each other while insuring only the desired key will be activated.

Abstract: A conversion system that provides compatibility between the internal system bus architecture of one computer and an external bus that operates on a different frequency includes a clock logic circuit for generating a clock signal that is synchronized with the internal clock for the computer system. The clock circuit includes a delay line that provides a plurality of phase displaced signals at the operating frequency of the computer system. Each of these phase displaced signals is multiplexed in accordance with the relationship of its phase to that of a signal at the clock frequency of the external bus. By multiplexing the phase displaced signals in the appropriate manner, pulses are generated with a time period corresponding to that of the desired external bus clock frequency.

Abstract: A word processor includes a keyboard, a cathode-ray tube, a first and a second storage devices, a central processing unit, and an internal storage. The first storage device stores information about the image displayed on the CRT. A floppy disk in which a program for a personal computer is stored can be installed in the second storage device. When the power supply of the word processor is put to work, the CPU ascertains whether such a floppy disk is installed in the second storage device. If installed, the CPU causes the present system to operate as an ordinary word processor. If not installed, the CPU allows the printer to operate in quick response to the input from the keyboard in accordance with the program stored in the ROM of the internal storage device.
