DUAL FORMAT DATA BLOCK READER
Proposal No. ED-CX-14 Rev. 2
/ 6/11/71
1. Purpose
The purpose of this amendment is to modify the performance
requirements of the Dual Format Data Block Reader resulting from
changes in the format of the data blocks.
2. New Data Block Format
Each of the two formats will comprise of either 5 or 6 files of 32
dots each, in place of the original 5 files. Dot size, spacing and density
does not change, but the index dot distribution within the data block is
different than the one shown in Figure 3 of proposal ED-CX-14 dated
10/7/69, Data Block location and film size (Figures 1 & 2 of proposal
ED-CX-14) did not change.
3. Required Modifications
The Reader will be capable of reading either 5 or 6 line data blocks
for each of the 9. 5" or 70 mm formats. The change from a 5 to 6 line format
will be under operator control, via front panel selectors. Incorporating
this feature will require the following additional tasks and equipment:
3.1 Front Panel Control
Front panel selectors will be added to existing units. The selectors
will be designed so that a minimum of manual switching will be required
to switch between formats.

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/10/24: CIA-RDP79B00873A001800020093-2
3. 2 Data Block Locator
There will be no change in the data block locator for the 9. 5"
format. However, since in the 70 mm format the last files are read
first, and since those files are different for the 5 file and 6 file formats,
the locator will be designed to lock on either file under control of the front
panel selector.
3.3 Data Processor
The design of the data processor will be affected both by the
modification of the index bit locations and by the variation in the number
of files. The latter will increase the required capacity of the recognition
logic to include the 6 file formats.
3.4 Error Detector
This section of the reader will be expanded to detect the additional
files and their content. As the block locator, it too will be affected by the
image reversal in the 70 mm format.
3.5 Programmer
The number of programs controlling the reader is proportional to
the number of different formats. The programmer will therefore be doubled
due to the additional formats.
3.6 Buffer Storage
The control of the buffer storage will be changed to accomodate the
new formats, and still maintain a similarity in output format to minimize
the users computer programs.

3.7 Debugging and Testing
Eirk, ?
The time consumed by debugging and testing both at FSDS and at
the customer's facility will be increased due to the additional formats.
All test film will be supplied by the customer.

FAIRCHILD SPACE AND DEFENSE SYSTEMS Proposal No. ED-CX-14
7 October 1969
SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
- 1.1 GENERAL
This proposal has been prepared in response to a request for a Dual
Format Data Block Reader. The Reader will locate and retrieve
digitally coded information annotated on 70mm and 9.5 inch film,
format that information, and record it on an IBM compatible magnetic
tape.
1.2 BACKGROUND
FSDS has extensive experience in data annotation and retrieval systems.
A pioneer in the solid state data annotation techniques, Fairchild has
also built two types of data block readers that are presently in use.
The proposed reader will utilize much of the know-how acquired during
the development of the previous units, and as many equivalent parts as
possible.

SECTION 2
REQUIREMENTS
- 2.1 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The Reader will be required to transport 70mm and 9.5 inch unsprocketed
film at a speed of 12 inches per second, and read on the fly the data blocks
specified in paragraph 2. 2.
The Reader will be capable of reading operational material, either negative
or positive, without the need of special processing for enhancing the data
blocks, as long as these blocks conform with the specifications in
paragraph 2.2 of this proposal.
The film will not be transported over stationary members of the film
drive to minimize the chance of scratching the material.
Output formatting, error checking and man machine interface will be
similar to those of the Fairchild Multi-Purpose Data Block Reader.

2.2 DATA BLOCK SPECIFICATION
The following specification will define the two data block formats to be
- re-ad and establish a baseline for readable data.
2.2.1 Data Block Position
Figures 1 and 2 show the data block position and pitch on the 70mm and
9..5 inch formats respectively. Dimensions and tolerances were
extracted by FSDS from information supplied by the Customer.
The data block's orientation is indicated by the letters A, B, C, and D,
at its corners. The figures indicate that the data block orientation is
equivalent in both formats but the frames of the 70mm format advance

2.2.2 Data Block Format
Figure 3 shows the geometry and format of the data blocks on 70mm
and 9. 5 inch film. The data blocks are equivalent in shape and word
sizes. They are both recorded by a Fairchild FLA-610 Avalanche
Luminescent Diode Array.

SECTION 4
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
4.1 INTRODUCTION
There are several inherent difficulties in retrieving digital data from
moving film. The most severe are detection of the dots from the
background, correction for film wander and dynamic skew in both
camera and reader transport, and correction for magnification changes
due to film flutter in the reader transport. The solutions to these
problems will be discussed in the following paragraphs.
4.2 GENERAL APPROACH
Figure 5 is a general block diagram of the Dual Format Data Block
Reader.
The system requires initial alignment for static skew and nominal
transverse position of the data block, as well as light level adjustments
for different film densities. The operator then sets the film in motion
and the automatic reading begins.

The data block locator will meter the distance between data blocks and
allow data detection only in the area between frames. The read amplifiers
then detect the pattern variations on the film and forward the information
to the data processor. The processor, under the control of the
programmer, converts the read amplifier signals into meaningful data
and presents this data to the buffer storage and the error detector. The
error detector checks the validity of the data and causes the printer to
print the frame numbers associated with the blocks in error. The buffer
storage synchronizes the information flow between the reader and the
magnetic tape recorder.
The output magnetic tape will be IBM compatible, either 7 or 9 track,
dependent upon Customer preference.
Since the direction of frame advance is different in both formats and the
reader transport is unidirectional, one format will be read in ascending
order of frames and the other with deseending order of frames. This
does not cause any more work on the part of the operator. In one case
he will rewind the film after the reading, and in the other, the film will
be rewound before the reading.

4.3 SYSTEM COMPONENTS
4.3.1 Film Transport
The film transport will be designed to accept 70mm and 9. 5 inch film up
to 1,000 feet in length, and transport it at a constant speed of 60 feet per
minute. The film will not contact stationary elements in its path to reduce
the chance of film damage. The reading gate will be comprised of two
pinch rollers spaced very closely to reduce film flutter. Also, to reduce
the jitter and flutter caused by bidirectional clutches and brakes, the
transport will drive the film in one direction only.
The transport will have a slack loop and guide rollers to limit film wander.
The use of special spools to limit film wander may be necessary, but will
be avoided if possible.
4.3.2 Light Source and Optics
The data block is illuminated by a high intensity light source concentrated
through a condenser lens. The effectivity of the light source will exceed
that of the previous readers, to allow reading of high density low contrast
positive s .

7 October 1969
A relay lens will image the illuminated data block onto the photodiode array.
The lens will be designed to retain sufficient magnification accuracy and
image sharpness with film flutter of ?. 005 inches from nominal.
Manual skew adjustment and edge distance setting will be provided, using
a reticle and a magnifier for visual aid. These settings should not have
to be made more frequently than once per each film roll.
4.3.3 Read Head
The read head will consist of an integrated silicon photodiode array. The,
diodes will be spaced at .006 inches apart, and the array will be long
enough to cover the full length of the data block plus a maximum film
wander band of .090 inches.
4.3.4 Read Amplifiers
The read amplifiers will be designed to have increased sensitivity over
those used in previous readers. This will allow detection of dots on low
contrast positive film, where the effectiveness of the light source may be
reduced by a factor of 100 due to film density.

7 October 1969
The read amplifiers will consist of an FET preamplifier followed by an
integrated circuit operational amplifier. Each photodiode output will be
connected to a separate amplifier.
4.3.5- Data Block Locator
The data block locator will consist of two parts. The first is a metering
device which will measure the length of film transported through the
optical system. When this length will be equal to a frame length (allowing
for tolerances), the second part will take over. This is an electronic
recognition system in the data processor which will check for index markl
in the proper locations. When both conditions are satisfied, the data
block position will be considered valid, the metering system will be
reinitialized to avoid accumulative errors, and data block reading will
commence.
4. 3.6 Data Processor
The data processor operates on the signal pattern presented to it by the
read amplifiers to correct for data block wander and skew, recognize
the data content, format it and present it to the buffer storage for
recording.

Wander correction is accomplished by the method used in the Fairchild
Multi-Purpose Data Block Reader. Each data bit is covered by three
photodiodes. The programmer determines which ones of these diodes
se-rise the dot and which sense the spaces and transfer the bit pattern
to a shift register. The data is moved in the shift register until the
index dot is found and then formatted and forwarded to the buffer storage.
The amount of correctable wander will be increased in the Dual Format
Reader from the previous .072 inches to .090 inches to facilitate
possible use of standard film reels in the film. transport.
The increased wander will result in a greater dynamic skew angle. The
format of the data block shown in Figure 3 helps to correct the effective
skew distance. Since the data block files have index dots at both extremes,
each file will be split in half. Each half will be read independently, using
its own wander correction circuitry, and both halves will be combined in
the shift register. It is the skew distance and not the skew angle which
contributes to the errors in reading. When reading a short block, reliable
reading can be achieved even with a large skew angle. Therefore, by

splitting the data block into two parts, the Reader will effectively read
two short blocks instead of one long block, and the effective skew distance
will remain within the readability limits.
Wander and skew correction will be performed independently for each of
the files of the data block, except file Y (See Figure 3), which has no index
dots to lock on. The Reader will read file Y based on the correction
information computed from the previous file.
After each file is read it will be formatted and forwarded to the buffer storage
and the error detector.
4. 3. 7 Error Detector
The data block does not contain partiy bits, therefore, the only checks
performed will be for format and content characteristics. The format
check will insure that all index dots are detected. The content check
will monitor the serial number and frame number. The serial number
should remain unchanged throughout the film reel, and the frame number
should increase (or decrease) by one count for each consecutive frame
read.

Submittal of Dual Format Data Block Reader Cost Proposal
(1)
Three (3) copies of Cost Proposal for Dual Format
Data Block Reader ( EX-CX-14, Rev. 1 ) dated
17 May 1971
Fairchild is pleased to submit as enclosure (1) the cost proposal for a Dual Format
Data Block Reader. This quotation is based on the original design and development
described in our proposal no. ED-CX-14, dated 7 October 1969.
The price has been revised to reflect changes in cost of materials and labor over
the elapsed 20 month period since the last quotation. In addition, as requested,
engineering support time has been added for integration and acceptance testing
at the customers facility. Option A and B of the quotation include identical tasks
with the exception of the interface magnetic tape unit and printer which will be
furnished by the customer in Option B.
This proposal includes all of the costs required to design, develop, and fabricate
one Reader which will handle all 70mm and 9.5 inch both sprocketed and unsprocketed
film. The Reader will operate at a speed of 12 inches per second with either
negative or positive material. Unlike previous Reader the film will not be trans-
ported over the stationary member of the film drive, in order to reduce the risk of
scratching the film. It is proposed to use a slack film loop to limit film wander, if
this proves feasible, rather than the use of special film spools, in order to permit
film handling on standard spools.
Automatic correction for film wander will be extended to .090 inches, in order to
compensate for the use of standard film spools. The problems of reading high
density low contrast positives will be investigated and resolved by a combination of
more effective light sources and higher sensitivity amplifiers. In addition to the
effort quoted in the proposal, Monthly Technical and Financial reports will be
supplied.
This proposal is submitted on the basis of a CPFF type contract and two options
have been proposed. Option A is quoted Option.B is quoted at 25X1
Option B excludes the supplying of paragraph 4.3.8 Printer and 25X1
paragraph 4.3.11 Tape recorder as related in the subject proposal. Back-up
for the dollars quoted is available for immediate negotiation.
