Abstract

See full text

An analog servo system suitable for accurately controlling the carriage speed of a high speed printer over a relatively wide range. The system includes an analog tachometer with circuit means which enables the tachometer to operate in either a high gain mode (used at normal or lower carriage speeds) or a low gain mode (used at higher carriage speeds). The tachometer gain mode (or 'electronic gear') is controlled by an external command signal such as a single bit supplied by the control microprocessor of the printer. The state of the command signal controls a time constant in the tachometer circuit means which determines the gain mode.
