Abstract: The invention relates to the combination of a balance and a cash register with a customer display device shared by both, customary cash register software being used for this purpose. A multiplexer is used, the one data input of which has weighing data of the balance applied to it and the other input of which has price and/or product data that are output by the data processing unit applied to it, the one data input being activated by a multiplex switching signal when the weighing data have a value other than zero.

Abstract: A circuit for sequencing microinstruction sequences in data processing equipment in which during the course of a primary sequence subroutine jumps are performed and subsequences are carried out and at the end of each, a return jump into the primary sequence takes place due to the control provided by a temporarily stored return jump address at a point in the sequence at which a two-part branching instruction is to be evaluated. The first part of the branching instruction characterizes a branching function which is to be carried out dependent on a decision which is specified in the second part thereof. The circuit includes a microinstruction storage from which microinstruction sequences are taken over depending upon the output signals from a central fixed-cycle control circuit fed into a microinstruction register and a recoder which is arranged thereafter.
