Abstract

An addressable event display and control system for use with a clock controlled programmable memory employs an array of LED's as event designators each of which signifies, when energized, a programmed event in the memory. A bank of seven dual LED's, which is coupled to the memory, is selectively energizable to visually indicate a particular day of the week. When a particular day is selected, the array of designators for that day can be interrogated to determine which of the designators have been programmed for the particular day. Thereafter, a desired one of the designators can be selected to afford review of the program content of the event associated with that designator. The selected event designator is identified by a blinking visual signal. The time of day, a channel and a recording duration time are selectable to identify a particular event and that information is programmable into the memory for subsequent retrieval to control a video frequency recorder in accordance with such information.
