TIIB VEA PROGRAM The VEA Program enables you to verify, edit, and approve target read- outs and mission highlights appearing on the screen of a Sanders Tabular Display device. Several of these devices are located in work areas throughout the building and are on line with the UNIVAC 494 computer sys- tem. They are also referred to as CRTs (cathode-ray tubes). Target read- outs to be processed are those for which your component is responsible during the first- and second-phase exploitation of film derived from reconnaissance missions. Each readout (record) is stored in the Working File and identified by a machine reference number (MRN). Mission high- lights are recorded only in MRN 1. By using the VEA program you can correct data, syntax, grammar, and spelling. You can not control formatting; specifically, the length of a line, the designation of the beginning of a paragraph, or the insertion of a heading are not capabilities of VEA. By displaying statistics on Working File records, the program also enables you to monitor the progress of records through verification, edit- ing, and approval during any given mission. As each record is verified and then edited, it is returned to the Working File. After it has been approved, it is deleted from the Working File and entered in the Installa- tions Data File (IDF) by the computer. These procedures are illustrated in Figure 1. 25X1 Approved For ReleasIQBO:-E R TcIA-RDP78T04759A009700010002-9 Approve HOW DATA IS PROTECTED For Release g?/05AcR~T 0970001000 By the Program During the processing of readouts from any given mission, the VEA Program will be used concurrently by several people. To preclude un- authorized and incorrect changes to data during this time, several safe- guards have been included in the program. 1) Working File records will be transmitted only to those CRTs designated to display them. 2) You will receive only the Working File records which are ready for the particular function you are performing, viz., verifi- cation, editing, or approval. 3) The computer checks each item to ensure that it contains the correct number of characters. If not, it will be returned for correction. 125X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2gUIDESEC.RTT1RDP78T04759A009700010002-9 Approved For Release 2OFUKRE RDP78T04759 0097000100 2-9 25X1 By Administrative Procedures Each division is responsible for ensuring that only authorized per- sonnel use the VEA Program. In addition, the program can be called and run only from CRTs designated for that purpose. If you attempt to use a CRT that has not been reserved for the VEA Program, you will receive an error message to this effect. Every time you receive a display you have ten minutes in which to take action or transmit information to the computer. If you do not, communications between the CRT you are using and the computer will be automatically terminated. However, five minutes before the end of this interval, the UNSOL MSG switch will go on to indicate you have five minutes left in which to respond. Any valid response to the display you are viewing will give you another ten-minute period. If you are viewing an instructional display, complete one of the instructions. If you are viewing data, press one of the valid function switches for your display or press XMIT PAGE to transmit any changes you have made to the data on Twee the screen. Typing data on the screen is not considered a transmission. In any case, do not press the UNSOL MSG light to turn it off; if you do, data may be lost. 25X1 Approved For Release TM/cf R t~-RDP78T04759A009700010002-9 Approved ASSUMPTIONS For Release 2921099.CI 0097000100 2-9 To use the VEA Program effectively it is assumed that you * know how to operate a CRT; see Introduction to the Remote Access Computer Service second e ition; copies are available in D/PSG; * are familiar with the Working File and the Installations Data File, their content, format, and nomenclature; * are familiar with the verification, editing and approval functions performed during the first- and second-phase exploitation of target readouts.

EDITING WORKING FILE RECORDS IA-RDP78T047594 009700010 Working File records on targets and mission highlights will be edited while they are displayed on a CRT screen. Each record consists of one or more "pages" of information. A "page" is the amount of data that can be displayed on a CRT screen at one time (1,944 characters or about 400 words). An example of one page of a Working File record is shown in Figure 7. The first three lines comprise a page header, which includes identifying data, defense classification, and codewords (if any), the copy you are viewing, viz., CURR for current, and a page number. Except for the page number, the header will remain unchanged, regardless of the number of pages to be displayed. This header will also remain the same while you are verifying or editing all pages of the displayed record. The fourth line of each page is reserved for error messages. The body of the page consists of the fields and items that comprise each sector. The sectors that have been entered in the Working File appear in the order given on the next page. 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 061[44(RB'(AIRDP78T04759A009700010002-9 Approved Ff or Release 2aO06t1$-91 0970001000 125X1 Explanation Installation identification - displayed only for new target entries IPHOT Photo references ISTAT Status/activity trinone & explanation IOBJE Order-of-battle data IDESC Status/activity data on fixed facilities ISEW Security/defense text ILOCA Installation location & map references 25X1 Approved For Release 20 6~FC ffT-FDP78TO4759AO09700010002-9 Approved or Release M/AAMI 0970001000L The fields and items contain either constant-length data or variable- length data which is also called "text." Each constant-length data field is preceded and followed by a dollar sign. You may edit the data between the dollar signs. Variable-length data is preceded by the word "TEXT." Dollar signs and the annotations for fields and items in each sector are only for your convenience and will not be transmitted to the Working File. You will always edit the CURR copy of a Working File record. However, at any time you may see the unedited, original version of a page by pres- sing the DISPLAY ORIGINAL function switch. Original pnes cannot be edited or modified in any way. After you press the DISPLAY ORIGINAL function swit , the first page of the original, unedited copy will appear on the screen. It will be identified by the abbreviation, ORIG, in the upper left corner. To redisplay the CURR copy of a given page, press the DISPLAY CURRENT function switch. When that page is redisplayed, it will contain all modifications (if any) that you have transmitted to the computer. Two types of editing can be performed on the CURR copy of a Working File record. The first involves the editing of non-textual data appearing between dollar signs. The second type of editing involves more extensive corrections to textual material. 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 20 96-f2DP78T04759A009700010002-9 Approved DISPLAYING PAGES or Release Y/(FB?:IA- 009700010 To display the next page of either the CURRENT or ORIGINAL copy press the NEXT PAGE function switch. To display the previous page press the PREY PAGE function switch. If you press the NEXT PAGE switch while the last page of a record is being displayed, the first page will be redisplayed. By the same token, if you press the PREY PAGE switch while the first page is being displayed, the last page will be redisplayed. If you press either of these switches to display a one-page record, you will receive an error message (See CHAPTER VIII.) PRINTING CRT DISPLAYED PAGES A printout of a displayed page may be obtained by pressing the PRINT PAGE function switch while the page is on the screen. The informa- tion actually printed will be the page as it was sent to the CRT by the computer. Thus, if you have made any changes to the display which have not yet been transmitted to the computer these will not appear on the printed copy. To include these changes press the XMIT PAGE control switch, redisplay the page, and then press the PRINT PAGE function switch. 125X1 25X1 Approved For Release/0 'EqAIRDP78T04759A009700010002-9 Approved For Release 2'062144 WIA RDP78T04759 00970001004 EDITING NON-TEXTUAL MATERIAL Editing non-textual material, i.e., data appearing between dollar signs, is limited to replacing characters on a one-for-one basis. This is done by typing over each displayed character. Position the CRT cursor under the first character to be changed and type the correct character. The display will immediately reflect the changes you have made. For example: Before: TIPE After striking the Y key: TYPE However, this change is not recorded by the computer until you trans- mit the page to the computer by pressing the XMIT PAGE control switch. Usually, this is not done until all corrections on the page have been made. Until the time you transmit changes to the computer, you may change as many characters in the display as many times as you wish. If, during this time, you are unsatisfied with your modifications in the display you may start over again by pressing the RE-WIT function switch. This will cause an identical copy of the display last received from the computer (without your latest corrections) to appear on the screen, and you may begin again. 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For ReleaI?R BT ~IA-RDP78T04759AO09700010002-9 Approvedl For Release 209UAc A 097000100 After you press the XMIT PAGE control switch to transmit the cor- rected data to the computer, the next page will be displayed. If you attempt to make any corrections other than one-for-one char- acter replacement when you transmit the page to the computer, you will get an error message and the original display (CHAPTER VIII, message 2). If you press an invalid function switch, identified in Figure 7 by the shaded switches, the computer will generate an error message (message 7) at the top of the CRT screen. To recover from this condition, simply press the correct key or switch. All corrections made since the last valid transmission will be lost. EDITING TEXTUAL MATERIAL Editing textual material consists of inserting, deleting, replacing, and transposing data.* Of course one-for-one changes can also be made, as explained previously. Only the fields listed below contain textual material which can be altered by use of VEA. All changes described here are applicable only to existing data fields, i.e., no new fields or occurrences of repeating fields may be added as changes or corrections.

To edit textual material, you must first select and isolate the field you wish to edit. This is done by placing the cursor anywhere within the field and pressing the CURSOR ADD* control switch. You will then re- ceive a display containing as much of that one field as possible. This is called an Isolated Field Display (see Figure 8). If the field exceeds one page, the remainder will be displayed on succeeding pages and each page will be identified by the words EXPAND PAGE followed by the page number. Each page will also contain the statement ENTER * FOR NEW PAGE ( ). At the bottom of each page, four lines will he reserved, or left blank, to provide space for insertions. If the field selected is a repeating field (see APPENDIX B), only the occurrence indicated by the cursor will be isolated. One text item may contain up to 51 81-character lines of data. If more than 51 lines of data are entered, the excess will not be transmitted to the computer and will therefore be lost. The most efficient method of editing is to make all the changes needed on one page at a time and then transmit the changes to the com- puter by pressing the XMIT PAGE switch. However, you may transmit changes as frequently as you wish. After you have transmitted changes, the next page will be displayed. When the last page has been edited and transmitted, it will be displayed after the transmission. Press the PROCEED switch to return to the MRN data display page containing the field. You may proceed with one-for-one corrections, or isolate another field, or even isolate the same field again if you wish to make the fur- ther corrections. 7 For "sor address."

The PREV PAGE function switch is inoperable in this mode. You can only go back by repeated pressings of the NEXT PAGE switch, which, in circular fashion, brings you from the last page to the first. If you have added text in the four blank lines at the bottom of the page and need more space, proceed as follows: 1 Press the TYPE control switch. The switch will light up. 2 Place the cursor under the space between the parentheses in this message at the top of the page: ENTER * FOR NEW PAGE (). 3 Type an asterisk. 4 Press the XMIT PAGE control switch. The changes made so far will be transmitted to the computer, and a new page will be displayed (Figure 9). The new page will have the usual header and the message, ENTER * FOR NEW PAGE ( ). The last two lines from the preceding page will be repeated on the new page. The rest of the page will be blank. Proceed with additions as before. To get additional blank pages simply repeat the procedure given above. Remember that one text item is limited to 51 lines. When you have completed and transmitted the last "new page," the next page of text will be displayed. If there are no more pages, the last page will be redisplayed. On the other hand, if you have inserted text elsewhere in the body of the page and as a result the four blank lines at the bottom of the page are filled, follow these procedures: 1 Press XMIT PAGE.

See APP IX C. 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 20p651EcfDP78T04759A009700010002-9 Approved For Release 2V'9P/AAA 00970001000" ERASE TO END OF LINE. Pressing this control switch erases all characters on a given display starting with and including the character underlined by the cursor. The cursor ends up at the first character position on the next line. ERASE TO END OF PAGE. Pressing this control switch erases all characters on a given CRT page starting with and including the character underlined by the cursor. At the end of this operation the cursor returns to the first character position at the top of the page. Be careful not to erase the NEW PAGE option message at the top of the page. As you make insertions or deletions, the spacing between words must be preserved. If a word ends in the last position of one line, the first character in the next line must be a space. The same care must be taken when going from the last line on a page to the first line on the next page. Press the CONTROL CHARACTER control switch to verify the loca- tions of space characters (space characters will appear on the screen -- null* characters will not). To turn off the control characters, press the switch again. The gap created on the screen by the two ERASE control switches is filled with null characters, which are not transmitted to the computer when you press XMIT PAGE. Text Insertions To insert one or more new characters, first place the console in the Insert submode by pressing the INSERT control switch. Then position the cursor under the character position where you wish to make an insertion and type the desired characters. Note that as each new character is entered, all of the existing characters that follow it up to the first null character on the display page are pushed one character position fur- ther along in the display line. See APPENDIX C. 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2MONERC'k-ODP78T04759A009700010002-9 For Release,~Q~2/A~/~1~~fI - 009700010" 25X1 25X1 For example: Before: INERT After striking the S key: INSERT The maximum line length (81 characters) remains the same, with the character at the end of each line reappearing at the beginning of the next line after the insertion has been made. The result is that the inserted data moves some of the existing data into the previously blank area at the bottom of the screen. Data can be entered until the blank lines at the bottom of the page are filled. Text Substitutions A text substitution is simply the changing of information. That is, old information is deleted and new information is inserted in the same location. Before you begin the change, you may want to obtain a copy of the page as it now exists. Press the PRINT PAGE function switch. First make the deletions. Use the ERASE control switches whenever possible because this is faster and it creates a blank area for the insertion. Use the TYPE* submode to make an insertion in blank areas and use the INSERT submode whenever the typing would otherwise overwrite existing text. The TYPE submode is the one in which the console is placed automatically whenever a new page is transmitted -- whether in the Display of MRN Data mode or the Isolated Field Display mode. When in the Display of MRN Data mode, the only valid submode is TYPE. If you go to the INSERT or DELETE submode and make changes, your transmission of the page will yield an error message. When in the Isolated Field Mode, all three submodes are valid for the correction of textual items; go from one to the other by pressing the correct function switch for the new submode. 25X1 Approved For ReleaseT2d024A g lL -RDP78T04759A009700010002-9 Approved For Release 2'092/O?AcR~TA L 25X1 25X1 Text Relocations Relocation refers to the transfer of some portion of text from one location to another. This is achieved by deletion of information at the old location and insertion of the information in the new location. You may perform either operation first. Corrections Which Are Still in Error If you discover an error in a correction prior to transmitting the correction, simply press the TYPE switch, place the cursor under the character to be recorrected and type the correct character. If you discover an error in a correction after it has been transmit- ted, simply proceed as you would if it were an original correction. To change characters, press the TYPE control switch and type the correct characters over the existing ones. To eliminate characters, use the DELETE mode so that the subsequent text will be moved to the left. To add characters use the INSERT mode so that existing text will be moved to the right. If you press an invalid function switch -- indicated in Figure 8 by the shaded keys -- during an Isolated Field Display, the computer will generate an error message (CHAPTER VIII, message 7) at the bottom of the screen. To correct your error simply press the valid switch. Note that any changes made since the last valid transmission will be lost. If you try to enter the isolated field mode when the CRT cursor is located in a blank area or located anywhere within a fixed-length data field, i.e., one which does not contain textual information, the com- puter will return an error message (message 8) telling you that only individual character corrections can be made to this field from the existing MRN data display. 25X1 Approved For Released/ /(tE~I4-RDP78TO4759AO09700010002-9 Approv$ d For Release' 70021 9 CHAPTER VI.

THE NULL CHARACTER Positions on the screen which appear blank contain space characters or null characters. When the CONTROL CHAR switch is pressed, all characters on the screen except the null character can be seen; thus the remaining blank positions are with null characters. A space character (D) is transmitted to the computer when the XMIT PAGE switch is pressed but a null character is never transmitted. Whenever one character is inserted, all characters to the right of and below the insertion are moved over until a character has replaced the first null character encountered. When all null characters have been replaced, further insertions result in the loss of characters from the end of the last line. In each Isolated Field Display there are four lines of null charac- ters at the bottom of the page for textual expansion. Any positions be- tween the end of the text and these four lines will also contain null characters. Deletions and the control switches, ERASE TO END OF LINE and ERASE TO END OF PAGE, will also create null characters. 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For ReT0?e_%EfE 1j8 : CIA-RDP78T04759A009700010002-9 Approved For Release 200f44r1SEtWDP78TO4759AO09700010002-9 Approved For Release 200f44Fl [tWDP78TO4759AO09700010002-9
