Burroughs Series F 2000 Computer

I

Fig. 1-1

The Series F2000 Computer is designed for
the accounting machine application which requires multiplication. With the addition of an
electro-mechanical "package" to the Basic Series
"F" Burroughs accounting machine we now have a
compact computer accounting machine wherein
the flexibility of the basic Sen sima tic and its
simplicity of operation is retained. In addition,
.1" tabulation as used on the Series FlOOO is
incorporated into the F2000 for even more flexibility. These features together with speed of
multiplication provide a fast Computer to solve
all of the multiplication encountered in Tax
Billing, Loan Scheduling, Interest Billing, Payroll, and similar accounting applications.

Printed in U.S. America 12-1-62

The Computer is designated Series F2000.
The various styles within this series are designated by the last three digits of the style number
and refer to the style features of the basic Sensimatic machine. Style F2503, for example, includes the functional mechanism of Style F503
with, of course, the additional func tion of computing.
Features which are standard on the F2000
Computer include:
1. Carriage return by minus sign of CF "A",
carriage controlled.
2. Automatic count - column 3 carriage
controlled.
3. Crossfooter non -clear lock.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

There are two major components of the
F2000 Computer: the Basic Sensimatic machine
and the computing section. Although both components operate from the same source of power, each
unit operates individually. The computing mechanism is located at the rear of the m'lchine, and
extensions of the base and case provide housing
for the additional mechanisms. Changes in the
add racks include extensions to permit transferring
results from the electro-mechanical computing
mechanism to the basic portion of the machine.
The power supply and other electrical components
are mounted to the stand proper which makes the
stand an integral part of the machine. Forced
air cooling is used to remove the extra heat
developed by the computing mechanisms.

Removal of this panel is accomplished by
moving the locking lever to the rear, grasping
the panel end plate and pulling away from the
carriage.
PANEL REMOVAL

CARRIAGE FEATURES

The 22" front feed carriage has all the
features of the Series FlOOO carriage - - including
.1" carriage tabulation mechanism, front form
guides, rear form chutes, and continous roll
journal. The latest advancement in program
panels is also incorporated in the F2000. This
new side insertion program unit includes 41 additional lanes of which 13 are used for controlling
the computing process. Seven of the additional
lanes provide control in conjunction with an auxmary sensing unit which is mounted behind and
driven by the main sensing unit. The other six
lanes are elec trical lanes which provide information to the machine as a result of pins in the
panel actuating switches located in these lanes.
The remaining lanes are for future expansion.

After one -half of the panel is clear of the
carriage, grasp also the center rear panel rail to
aid in holding the panel when it is clear of the
machine.

OPERAND STORA GE UNIT

A, Fig. 1-5

~~~----------------------

Fig. 1-5
The Operand Storage Unit, designated as "D"
section of the machine, is located between the
"C" register section and the Product Accumulator.
Its function is to store the two different factors
for multiplication, i. e., the Multiplicand and
the Multiplier, as programmed in the carriage
contol panel. The dual construction of the "D"
section permits two amounts to be stored at the
same time. The factors stored in the "D" section
may be received from the keyboard, mechanical
accumulator storage, or from the Product Accumulator.
While being introduced into the "D" section,
the Multiplicand and lor Multiplier may be printed, non-added, added or subtracted in "A", "B"
or "C" sections in accordance with the layout.
An amount stored in the "D" section will remain
there until a Sensimatic operation in a position
programmed to enter another MP or MC. At the
beginning of this MP or MC cycle the affected
portion of the "D" section is restored to zero,
clearing out any stored up figures. If no amounts
are being indexed the "D" section "wheels" remain at zero.

PRODUCT ACCUMULA TOR

contains twenty accumulating pinions. The left
twelve pinions can be meshed with the add rack
extensions to read out the product of multiplication. The eight pinions on the right provide a
means of obtaining greater accuracy in the accumulation of fractional amounts. These eight
pinions can not be meshed with add rack extensions or read out in any other manner. For this
reason, a means is provided for cl earing these
pinions without meshing with add rack extensions.
Amounts may be accumulated in the Product
Accumulator onl y from the process of multiplication. The Product Accumulator will not receive amounts from the keyboard, a crossfooter
or a register.
The final product is transferred to the add
racks on the first Sensimatic machine cycle
following the multiplication routine and in the
same carriage position in which multiplication
has taken place. This machine cycle, which may
be initiated by a repeat of machine operation or
by the use of a motor bar, is called a "Product
Cycle." The use of a result key will cause a
malfunction. (Only the smaller amount in each
column will print.) On the Product Cycle the
amount in the Product Accumulator may be
transferred to a crossfooter and/or register; either
added, subtracted or non-added as programmed
in the Control Unit. The product may also be
introduced into the" D" sec tion (Operand Storage
Unit) as a Multiplicand and/or Multiplier at the
same time.

B, Fig. 1-6

The Product Accumulator is located between
the "D" section and the components unit and
serves as a storage unit in which to accumulate
partial products. This electro -mechanical unit

COMPONENTS UNIT

C, Fig. 1-6

This electro-mechanical section performs all
of the actual multiplication. It produces two
components for each multiplier digit which are
referred to as the right and left hand components.
These components are channeled into the Product
Accumulator where they accumulate into a grand
total or product. The columns of the Product
Accumulator which receive these components are
selected by the Components Unit which is in turn
directed by the Program Unit.
METHOD OF MUL TIPLICA TION
Multiplication as accomplished by the F2000
Computer utilizes what is referred to as a Right
and Left Hand Component method. To begin
with, the basic multiplication tables are broken
into right hand components and left hand components of each possible multiplying combination.
For example, in the case of 9 X 9, the product
is 81. The figure 1 to the right is the right hand
component of 9 X 9. The figure 8 to the left
is the left hand component of 9 X 9. It will be
noted that in all the multiplication tables, (of
1 through 9) the largest products have only two
numbers in them. (The largest product being
81; the result of 9 X 9).
Taking an example from the multiplication
table of 7, 3 X 7 = 21; the right hand component
of 3 X7 is I, the left hand component of 3 X 7
is 2. In the case where we have smaller figures
such as 3 X 3, the left hand component would
be O. For a compound example, 3 X 64109, the
right hand component would be 82307 and the
left hand component would be 11002.

Following is an example of a simple multiplication performed manually:
42345
X3
127035

This could be written as follows:
42345
X3
1 5
1 2

Sec. I

Burroughs - Series F2000 Instruction Book

Multiplication tables are contained in 18
"function" tables, one for the right hand components of each number 1 through 9 and one for the
left hand components of each number 1 through 9.
These function tables are electrical circuits
printed on two disks - - one for all right hand
components and the other for all left hand components.
In the multiplication process, a figure
read from the Multiplier Storage Unit (part of
"D" section) turns the two disks to the function
tables for that figure. Electrical impulses are
sent through the tables (first the right and then
the left hand) to the Multiplicand Storage Unit
(part of "D" sec tion). Figures stored there permit the transferring, through switch connections, of these electrical right and left hand
components to the Product Accumulator.
A digit of the multiplier thus finds the
right hand components of the entire multiplicand
in one multiplying cycle and the left hand components in the next multiplying cycle. Each
digit of the multiplier, in turn, finds first the
right hand components and then the left hand
components of the multiplicand. The left hand
components are "stepped over" one column to the
left of the right hand components in adding in
the Product Accumulator. The multiplication
starts with the first significant digit on the right
and proceeds from right to left,

7

Two cycles are required for each digit of
value in the Multiplier. Each digit requires. 4
of a second (or 400 milli -seconds) except zero,
which requires no Significant time. This multiplying time is not affected by the number of
digits in the Multiplicand. To obtain maximum
speed, the Multiplier should contain the factor
with the least number of digits other than zeros.
To round off the answer ana clear the unwanted fractional amounts requires an additional
.4 of a second. A Sensimatic cycle is needed to
complete the operation and requires. 55 seconds.
The multiplication of a seven digit number by a
three digit number containing one zero would require approximately 1. 75 seconds including round
off, clear, transfer and print.

SPEED OF MUL TIPLICA TION
Multiplication is automatic and is controlled through pins used in lanes of the Control
Unit. A digit of the multiplier, other than zero,
requires two product accumulator cycles. On the
first cycle the right hand components are routed
electro-mechanically through the components
unit to the Product Accumulator and, on the
second cycle, the left hand components. The
cycling of the multiplying mechanism is controlled independently of, and not concurrently
with, the usual Sensimatic cycle. The product
accumulator cycles at the rate of 300 revolutions
per minute. This speed determines the basic
multiplying speed.

ROUND-OFF AND CLEAR
When performing multiplication involving
decimals it is usually desirable to "round-off" the
answer toa unit of significant value and drop the
digits of no significant value. This is called
round -off and clear.
"Round-off" is accomplished by automatically adding 5 in column 0,1,2 or 3 in the proPrinted in U.S. America 12-1-62

Where the product is not carried to the nearest whole unit, no round-off is required. However, pins are still required in the program unit
to obtain a clear of the unwanted fractional
amounts. (NRC, with column designation)
In some applications it is necessary to retain the fractional amounts in the first eight
columns of the Product Accumulator and add
them to the next multiplication. This may be
accomplished also by programming and is called pro-rating (PR).

DECIMAL INDICATOR LAMPS

"C" AND "M" KEYS

These lamps are floating decimal points.
When an amount is to be indexed on the keyboard a Decimal Indicator Lamp will inform the
operator in which columns the amount should be
entered. Whole numbers will normally be indexed to the left of an illuminated lamp, and
cents and other fractions to the right. A row of
Decimal Indicator Lamp Windows are provided
below the "I" keys. The nine indicators are
located between columns, starting between
columns "0" and "I" and ending between columns "8" and "9". Only three of the lamps may
be programmed for illumination . The standard
. positions for the three lamps are located between
columns 2/3, 5/6 and 8/9.

The "C" and "M" keys are located in the
12th keyboard column, in positions 11 and 12.
They are normally used on applications where
it is desired to change a programmed Unit Price
multiplication to a Price Per Hundred (C) or a
Price Per Thousand (M).

One Decimal Indicator Lamp will be illuminated when the carriage is stationary except when
the Sensimatic Control Lever is moved to the
rearward position for normalizing the carriage. If
no pin is active in lane 64 or 65 the lamp on the
right will be illuminated. If an electrical pin is
active in lane 64 the center lamp will be illuminated. An active pin in lane 65 will illuminate
the lamp on the left side of the keyboard.

The "C" key always shifts the product seven
(7) places - regardless of the programmed shift.
The "M" key always shifts the product eight (8)
places - regardless of the programmed shift. To
have the Unit Price multiplications correctly
pointed off - whenever the "C" or "M" keys
might be used - a Decimal Shift of 5 (S5) must
be programmed.
The "C" or "M" key must be depressed in
the position prior to multiplication. A "Repeat
Keyboard" must be programmed in this position
to hold either key (" e" or "M") into the multiplication position.
In addition to shifting the product the "e"
or "M" key will cause a "e" or "M" to be printed in column 12.

DELTA CLEAR

NEGATIVE MUL TIPLICA TION LAMP

The Delta Clear (or 20 place clear) operation
is used to clear the product accumulator of incorrect or fractional amounts following a power failure or after pro-rating. The operation can be indexed manually by depression of the Delta Key
(marked '~"). located in keyboard position 08,
with the carriage control disabling lever rearward.
It can also be programmed into the control unit
(lane 66) for automatic clearing after pro-rating.

This lamp located below the "NEG X" key
will glow red when a negative multiplication
has been called for by carriage control or by
manual indexing of the "NEG X" key. It will
remain illuminated until the entire multiplication
cycle has been completed or the condition is
cancelled by use of the Sensimatic Control Lever
or the Non -Multiply Key with a machine cycle.
NON-MULTIPLY KEY

Indexing of a Delta Clear operation causes the
multiplier section to cycle and clear itself and the
sensimatic to cycle, at the same time, to print
the clear symbol (. OO~ only. Any amount thus
cleared cannot be added to or subtracted from
the mechanical accumulating sections.
DepresslOn ot the Delta Key wHn the carriage control disabling lever forward, operates
the machine the same as Bar 2 and the product
accumulator will not be cleared.
POWER ON KEY
This key, marked "ON", is located in position 01. It turns on the power to the computer.
It must be held down momentarily when starting
machine. If not held down for a sufficient length
of time the key will restore. An electrical power
failure of sufficient length to give an erroneous
answer, will shut off the machine and this key
will restore.
POWER OFF KEY
This key, marked "OFF", is located in position D2. It turns off the power to the computt:r.

This key, marked NON X, is located in
position 6. When depressed, disables basic Sensimatic functions of Repeat of Keyboard, Repeat
and MBR. Does not operate the machine. Its
two functions are:
1. Disable Multiplication Routine
The Non-Multiply Key is used in the
Pre-multiply position when it is desired
to disable the multiplication routine.
It disables the Pre-multiply function.
When used it permits normal listing or
posting instead of multiplication in the
next operating position.
2. Disable Negative MultiplyIf a Negative Multiply is set up, the
Non-Multiply Key and a machine
cycle in any carriage position (not
programmed for multiplication) will
cancel it. If a Negative Multiply is
set up and the Non-multiply Key is
used in the next Pre-multiply position,
both the Pre-multiply and the Nega ti ve Multiply functions will be disabled.

CARRIAGE CONTROL DISABLING LEVER
NEGA TIVE MUL TIPL Y
This key, marked "NEG X", is located in
position D4-5. When depressed, provides a manual control of multiplication so that the next
product may be automatically subtracted from
the crossfooter and printed in red. This does not
alter the carriage controlled functions of register
"B" or "C". The "NEG X" key will not cycle
the machine.

Printed in U. S. America 12-1-62

In addition to its basic functions the
Carriage Control Lever is used to normalize
certain Computer functions as follows:
A.

Before using the "~. key the Carriage
Control Lever must be positioned rearward. After using the ':6" key, it is
again positioned in its forward position.

Motor Bar Used in Error
If a motor bar is used in a pre -multipl y
position which moves the carriage to a
position that is not programmed for
multiplication, or disable pre -multiply, the machine is inoperable. The
Carriage Control Lever must be used
to normalize the locks set up by the
pre -multipl y.
Negative Multiply
After the use of either the carriage controlled or the manual negative multiply, the negative multiply function
may be disabled by the Carriage Control Lever. This must be accomplished
prior to multiplication. The lever
need be positioned rearward only momentarily.
Decimal Indicator Lamps
The decimal indicator lamps may only
be illuminated when the Carriage Control Lever is in the forward position.

MACHINE INTERLOCKS
To eliminate the pOSSibility of operational
errors during a multiplication routine the following machine interlocks are active for protection.

For example, if in a Multiply (M) position, with
a preceding Pre-multiply (PM) control and a Repeat, the machine will always multiply first.
After multiplication the machine will then cycle.
COLUMN SELECTOR KEYS
After the start of the multiplication routine,
the Column Selector Keys are locked against depression. For example, in a Multiplication (M)
position, with a preceding Pre-multiply (PM)
control and a Repeat, the Column Selector Keys
are both locked immediately before the start of
the multiplication routine. After the product
cycle, the Column Selector Keys are free and
may be used.

After the start of the multiplication routine,
this lever is locked in its forward position until
the product cycle is completed.

The F2000 Computer "multiplies" by adding
right and left hand components. A right and a
left hand component is added for each digit of the
multiplier. Each digit of the multiplier requires
two cycles of the multiplier drive which results in
two cycles of the product accumulator and one
cycle of the components unit and timing cam
assembly. The right hand components of the
first digit are added to the product accumulator
during the first half cycle of the components unit.
This is a "right hand stroke." The left hand components of the first digit are added during the last
half cycle of the components unit. This is a
"left hand stroke." This process is repeated until
the right and left hand components of the last
multiplier digit have been accumulated. An
additional right and left hand stroke are required
to complete multiplication. Round-off and clear
occurs, as programmed, during this time.
Components added to the product accumulator during the first right hand stroke create
what is referred to as the first "partial product. "
Components added during subsequent strokes (left
or right) produce a series of "partial products"
until the last left hand component produces the
"final product". Right and left hand components
are the result of routing pulses from the pulse
generator to the product accumulator through the
components unit and the multiplicand section of
the operand storage unit. The routing is predetermined by programming and by amounts
indexed into the operand storage unit.

Pulses from the pulse generator are applied
to the components unit during each cycle of the
multiplier drive, The components unit function
table disks, the positioning of which is determined
by the multiplier digit being used, routes the
proper pulse to the proper buss line of the multiplicand section of the operand storage unit,
Amounts previously stored there have completed
circuits from these buss lines to the shifter disks
of the components unit, The shifter disks connect
the twelve outputs of the multiplicand storage
section to their proper columns in the product
accumulator. In some style machines there are
only eleven columns in the operand storage unit.

BASIC TIMING OF THE PULSE ROUTE
At the start of multiplication, when multiplier drive trip solenoid L230 is energized, the
drive cycles once, the product accumulator
cycles once, the components unit camshaft cycles
180 0 and the timing cam switch assembly cycles
180°. The pulse route circuits are completed at
14 0 of the components unit cycles. S209 supplies
the basic nine pulse to the pulse generator beginning at 15 0 of the components unit cycle. The
pulse generator cam and the product accumulator
pinion shaft begin their forward rotation to accumulate the right hand components at approximately

Sec.

n

Burroughs - Series F2000 Instruction Book

30 0 of the components unit cycle. As the multiplier drive trip solenoid is again energized, the
drive cycles once, the product accumulator
cycles once, the components unit camshaft
cycles 180 0 (to home) and the timing cam switch
assembly cycles 180 0 (to home). The pulse route
circuits are again completed at 1940 of the component cycle. S209 supplies the basic nine pulse
to the pulse generator beginning at 195 0 of the
components unit cycle. The pulse generator cam
and product accumulator pinion shaft begin their
forward rotation to accumulate the left hand components at approximately 210 0 of the components
unit cycle. Interlock circuits are provided to
ensure that the right or left hand disks (function
table and shifter) are fully positioned prior to
tripping the multiplier drive for a right or left
hand stroke respectively.

5

The pulse route originates with timing cam
switch 5209. This switch, when transferred,
applies B+ to the pulse generator. The resulting
pulses are routed through function table disks,
multiplicand storage section and shifter disks to
the product accumulator pinion solenoids. Energizing these solenoids at the proper time during
the product accumulator cycle allows a partial
rotation of the pinion corresponding to the length
of the pulse applied to the solenoid.
The Dulse generator consists of eight sets of
circuit-breaking contacts which receive B+ trom
timing cam switch S209 (Gate pulse generator).
The length of pulses one through eight is determined by opening these eight sets of contacts.
Timing cam switch S209 determines the length
of the nine pulse.

RIGHT HAND FUNCTION TABLE

The nine different length pulses thus generated enter the components unit platen. During the
first half cycle (180'1 of the components unit the
platen is moved rearward to sense the right hand
function ta~le and shifter disks simultaneously.
During the remaining half cycle the platen is
moved forward to sense the left hand function
table and shifter disks simultaneously. The pulses
from the pulse generator are connected to nine
sensing pins on the platen. As these pins contact
the right or left function table disk they are connected by the disks to nine output platen pins which
are wired to the nine buss lines of the multiplicand
storage section. The position (1 through 9) of the
function table disks, representing the multiplier
digit being used, determines which input pulse
will be applied to which output pin (buss line of
the multiplicand storage section).

~

Prior to multiplication an amount representing the multiplicand must be indexed into the
operand storage unit. Indexing of this amount
positions the wiping gear contacts of the operand
storage unit (multiplicand section) to connect the
output line of each column to the buss line representing the digit indexed into that column. In this
manner pulses applied to the nine buss lines of the
multiplicand section of the operand storage unit
are routed to the twelve output lines of the multiplicand section which in turn are wired to twelve
pins on the components unit platen. As the platen
senses the right or left hand disks, the shifter disk
connects these twelve pins to twelve columns of
the product accumulator as a group. For example
if the output of column one of the multiplicand is
routed to column 7 of the product accumulator,
the output of column two would be routed to pro-

Section II

Speed of Multiplication
The cycling of the electro mechanical multiplying mechanism is controlled independently of, and not concurrently with, the usual machine cycle. The Product Accumulator cycles at the rate of 300 revolutions per minute. This speed, because of
the time sharing of other multiplying operations, determines the basic multiplying
speed.
. Two cycles are required for each figure of value in the multiplier; one for the
-right hand component and one for the left. Each digit requires four tenths of a
second, except zero which requires no significant time. This multiplying time is
not affected by the number digits of the multiplic~nd. To obtain maximum speed the
multiplier should contain the factor with the least number of digits other than zerose
Round-off and clear requires an additional four tenths of a second. A machine
cycle is needed for the product cycle and requires about one half second. The multiplication of a ten-digit number by a five-digit number containing one zero would
require approximately 2.55 seconds including round-off, clear, transfer and print
as follows:

duct accumulator, column 8, etc., with the
output of column 12 being routed to product
accumulator column 18. The position number of
the right hand shifter indicates the product
accumulator column to which the output of column one of the multiplicand is routed. For
example with the right hand shifter in position 7,
the output of column one of the multiplicand section will be routed to product accumulator
column 7 when the platen senses the right hand
disks. The left hand shifter is wired one column
to the left of the right hand shifter; therefore, in
left hand shifter position 7 the output of column
one of the multiplicand storage would be routed
to column 8 of the product accumulator as the
platen senses the left hand disks.

ROUND-OFF AND CLEAR
The final product. produced by the accumulation· of the right and left hand components of
all the digits of the multiplier. can be roundedoff and/or cleared to the nearest penny. dime.
dtiUar or ten dollars through programming. There
are three round-off and clear options (lane 42) and
four column location options (lane 43). For simplicity. round-off and clear keyboard column 1
(RC1) and no round-off and clear keyboard column
2 (NRC2). will be considered.
With RC1 programmed. round-off is accomplishe4, by routing the fi ve pulse from the pulse
generator to the product accumulator pinion solenoid in column 9 during the last right hand
stroke. The nine pulses from the pulse generator
are applied to the platen as on other strokes;
however. with the right hand shifter in position 21
these normal circuits are not completed to the
product accumulator. The five pulse is connected to two platen pins. one of which is located on
the function table side and the other on the shifter
disk side. This latter pin is connected through the
right hand shifter (in position 21) and another
platen pin to pad D of 5261 (lane 42). Pad D of
5261 is connected by its wiper to the A pad. The
A pad of 5261 is wired to the E pad of 5262 (lane
43). With RC1 programmed the wiper of 5262
" completes the round-off pulse route to pad C
which is wired to product accumulator column 9.
The "clear" function is accomplished by
pulsing the product accumulator total bail solenoid and applying nine pulses to those Product
Accumulator columns that are to be cleared (the
rounded-off column and all those to the right of

the platen sensing the left hand disks, pad F of
5261 is connected to product accumulator columns 1 through 7 and back to pads D and C of

pad E of 5261.
With RCI programmed, th.e wiper of 5261
will connect pads E-and F completing the clear
pulse route to product accumulator columns 1

pulse to pad A, which is wired to pad Eof 5262.
The wiper of5262, positioned for RCI will route
the nine pulse to pad C and column 9 of the product accumulator. Pad C of 5261 is wired to pad
D of 5263. The wiper for 5263, positioned with
52~2 from lane 43, completes the pulse route to

product accumulator. In this manner columns 1
through 9 receive the clear pulse.
With NRC2 programmed, the wipers of 5261
would be positioned to bridge the E and F pads,
and the A and C pads. The round-off pulse which
is applied to the D pad of 5261 would therefore be
lost and no round-off would occur dming the last
right hand stroke. During tbe last Ie ft hand stroke
the nine pulse would be routed to the D and C
pads of 5261 and to the first seven columns of the
product accumulator as previously described. The
nine pulse to pad Dof 5261 would produce no result. The nine pulse to pad C of 5261 which is
wired to pad D of 5263, is routed by the wiper of
5261 to pad A of 5261. Pad A of 5261 is wired to
pad E of 5262. With NRC2 programmed, the
wiper of 5263 connects pads C and B to pad D,
routing the nine pulse to columns 8 and 9 of the
product accumulator. The wiper of 5262 would
be positioned to connect pads Band E, thereby
.rout!-ng the nine pulse to column 10 of the product
accumulator. In this manner columns 1 through
10 receive the clear pulse. If no round-off. no
clear is programmed (Prorate) the five pulse would
be lost on pad D of 5261 and the nine pulse would
be lost on the E pad of 5261, due to the position
of the wipers for 5261.

MULTIPLICATION CONTROL LOGIC

Setting Up the Preliminary Conditions
In order to execute a multiplication it is
first necessary to extend both a multiplier and
multiplicand in the operand storage unit. This
is accomplished by operating the Sensimatic in a
carriage position containing a No.2 control pin
in lane 34 to extend the multiplier or in lane 33
to extend the multiplicand. The operand may be
listed on the keyboard or extracted from an accumulator by totaling or subtotaling it.

up the pre-multiply condition. Ground is furnished
through S233 (Non-Multiply Key), with the nonmultiply key normal, in parallel with Sensimatic
timing cam switch 5225 (Gate Manual Disable

Contacts K201-21 and 22 are designed to
make before K201-29 and 30 break. This provides a hold circuit for K201 through contacts
K201-21 and 22, resistor R223, S280 (Digit 5elector disk) in parallel with 5207, and S216 (Lane
62) after S221 opens at 121 0 • Opening of K20123 and 24 prevents picking of L222 (Machine Trip

through K202-28 and 29 and 5240 (C or M key,
which will be discussed later) to pick L225 (Decimal Shift) to release the decimal shift tappet
(Lane 44). By limiting the movement of the decimal shift tappet, the control pin in lane 44 determines the position of the wipers of 5264 and 5265.
Since K245-4 and 5 are in the ground circuit of
L223, it can be seen that the delay-pick charateristic of K245 causes a delay in picking K202
and ultimately delays the release of the decimal
shift tappet until the tappet and its control pin
are properly aligned.

Release of the decimal shift tappet causes
release of the decimal shift timer slide in the
auxiliary sensing unit to permit 5243 (Decimal
Shift Enable) to transfer. The timer slide is
required to delay pre-shift until after the shift
tappet has settled down if it bounces after it
limits on the control pin.
As soon as 5243 transfers, L226 (Right Hand
Shifter clutch) is energized to move the right hand
shifter disk, and L227 (Right Hand Function Table
clutch) is permitted to be energized to allow the
right hand function table disk to seek the position
corresponding to the value of the first multiplier
digit if the disk is not already there because of a
previous multiplication. The multiplier is "read"
from right to left.
CB+ to position the right hand shifter disk
is supplied through S243 to pad E of 8264. The
wiper of 8264, previously positioned as the shift
tappet limited on the control pin, connects pad
E with pad A, B, C or D depending on whether
there is a No.3, No.5, No. 7 or no pin at all
in lane 44 to cause a decimal shift of 2, 5, 7 or
8 places, respectivel y. This shift is necessary
to ensure that the product is generated in the
proper product accumulator columns to correspond with the desired decimal point loeation in the product.

8264-A, B, C and D are connected to
wiping contacts on the right hand shifter
pOSition selector disk (S277). One of the two
pads of each DZ switch of the. multiplier storage unit is also connected to a wiping contact
as is L226 (Right Hand 8hifter clutch) through
resistor 2B3. The other DZ switch pads are
connected in common to L226, also through
resistor 283.
As VOltage is applied to the selected decimal shift pad of 8264, the corresponding wiper
gates the voltage to the right hand shifter clutch
through the printed circuit configuration of 8277
to cause the right hand shifter disk (the same
disk as S277) to move one, two, four or seven
positions for an 8, 7, 5, or 2 shift, respectively.

left. If there are any zeros to the right of the
first multiplier digit, the corresponding DZ
switches will be closed. The right hand shifter
clutch is held through these switches until an
open DZ switch (indicating a significant digit)
is sensed. The disk is now in position to gate the
first right hand components to the proper product
accumulator columns.
The zero pads of all multiplier storage unit
columns are connected in series, whereas each
digit pad ("1" through "9") of each column is connected in common to the same digit pads of the
other columns. These digit commons, or busses,
are connected to wiping contacts on S276 (Function Table Position Selector). Two other wipers
on S276 are connected to L227 (Right Hand Function Table clutch solenoid) through S239 in parallel with hold resistor 2H3.
As previously mentioned, as soon as S243
closes the right hand function table clutch is
energized if it is necessary to move the right
hand function table disk to a new position. Voltage is applied through 8243 and K202-25 and 26
to me common pad of column one of the multiplier storage unit, through any zero switches closed
due to zeros to the right of the least Significant
digit in the multiplier, to the digit bus corresponding to first significant multiplier digit. L227
maybe energized through the selected wiper on
8276 and the circuit configuration of 8276 to
cause the right hand function table disk (the same
disk as 8276) to turn to the first digit position. If
the disk already is in the propeT position because
of a previous multiplication, the circuit configuration of 8276 does not permit L227 to be energized.
As soon as 8279 (pinned to the same shaft as
the right hand shifter disk) begins to turn, CB+ is
supplied from wiper 7 through a disk circuit to
wiper 6, and wipers 1 and 2 are bridged by another
circuit of the disk. From wiper 6, voltage is supplied through K202-22 and 23, K201-27 and 28,
S279-1 and 2 and 8203 and S251 is parallel with resistor 2V3 to energize L226 (Left Hand 8hifter
clutch solenoid) to move the left hand shifter disk.
When the left hand shifter disk has reached the
same relative position as the right hand shifter
disk, the circuit configuration of 8279 causes a
loss of continuity between Wipers 1 and 2, and

the left hand shifter clutch disengages.
With S279 out of home position, wiper
8 becomes isolated and L223 (Directional Key
Block) drops.
The left hand function table disk follows
the right hand function table disk in a similar
manner. As the right hand function table disk
begins to turn, disk 8278 (Function Table Follow-Up), which is pinned to the same shaft;
completes a circuit between S278-1 and 2. Voltage is applied through K201-24 and 25, K202-4
and 5, 8278-1 and 2, 8204, and 8250 in parallel
with resistor 2N3 to energize L229 (Left Hand Function Table clutch solenOid). The left hand disk
follows the right until 5278-1 and 2 open to drop
the clutch,indicating that the disks are in the
same relative position.
Each of the four disk clutch assemblies contains three switches, generally referred to as interlock switches although they do not all perform
interlock functions in the strictest sense. As the
clutch engages and begins to turn its disk(or
disks), the switches transfer and remain transferred until the clutch disengages. Pick VOltage is
applied to each clutch solenoid through the contacts of one of these switches in parallel with a
resistor. As the clutch shaft begins to turn, the
switch opens to cause part of the voltage applied
to the solenoid to be dropped across the resistor.
This is done for two reasons. 5ince the disk circuits actually break current to drop out the clutch
solenoids, reducing the voltage on the solenoid
reduces burning of the printed circuits. Also,
the reduced VOltage permits a faster drop-out of
the solenoids, especially important for the right
hand shifter since, if it over-stepped, an entire
multiplier digit wruld be skipped.
When the right hand shifter and right hand
func'tion table disks have been pOSitioned, voltage is applied from 5279-6 through 8249 (a
right hand function table interlock switch), 5247
(a right hand shifter interlock switch), 5206 and
K201-5 and 6 to energize L230 (Multiplier Accumulator Clutch solenOid) and trip the multiplier
drive for the first right hand accumulator cycle.

cuit to the clutch solenoid.

The digit selector disk, 5280, is on the
back of the left hand shifter disk and is positioned with it. After pre -shift, the digit selector is used to determine subsequent positions of
the right hand function table. A wiping contact
of 5280 connects to each column common, except column 1, of the multiplier storage unit.
Other wipers connect to 5265-A, B, C and D.
The wiper of 5265 is positioned by the decimal
shift tappet to connect pad E With pad A. B, C
or D, depending on the programmed decimal
shift. The configuration of 5280 is such that
with the left hand shifter disk in position, the
selected 2, 5, 7 or 8 shift wiper is connected
through the multiplier storage unit to the function table position selector (5276) wiper corresponding to value of the next multiplier digit.

5214 (Enable Left Hand Interlock) is closed
from 1550 to 1900 to energize L230 for the first
left hand cycle. The voltage path is from 5279-6
through 5244 (a left hand shifter interlock switch),
5245 (a left hand function table interlock SWitch),
5214 and K20l-5 and 6. The interlock switches
are necessary to ensure that the left hand shifter
and left hand function table disks have been positioned before the accumulator clutch is tripped
and the disks are sensed.

5202 (Gate Right Hand Function Table
Clutch) closes at 1210. Voltage is applied to
5202 from 5243 through K202-24 and 25, 5236
~a left hand shifter interlock switch) and 5237
(a left hand function table interlock SWitch).
5202 applies VOltage to 5265 to energize the
right hand function table clutch solenoid to
move the disk to its next position. 5236 is
necessary to ensure that the left hand shifter
disk has been positioned prior to picking the
right hand function table clutch since the digit
selector on the back of the left hand shifter
disk in conjunction with the multiplier storage
unit determines to which position the function
table diSk is to go. Also, since the right hand
function table and the left hand function table
follow-up disks are pinned to the same shaft,
5237 is required to ensure that the left hand
function table disk has been positioned prior to
moving the right hand function table disk.

5209 is closed from 1950 to 290 0 30' to energize the product accumulator solenoids which are
to receive the left hand components.

As the right hand function table disk begins

S225 serves two purposes. It prevents
dropping K201 if the non-multiply key is depressed during a multiplication routine, which would
result in a wrong product, and it also prevents
dropping K201 or K204 if the key is accidentally
depressed at any time without cycling the Sensimatico

Decimal point indication lights on the keyboard are provided as standard construction between columns 2 and 3 (.2), 5 and 6 (.5) and 8
and 9 (.8). These are illuminated through control unit programming to indicate in which keyboard columns amounts should be indexed.

CROSSFOOTER NON -CLEAR LOCK
With a control pin in lane 64, the light
is between columns 5 and 6. A control pin in
lane 65 produces a light between columns 8 and
9 and lack of a pin in either lane results in a
light between columns 2 and 3.
CB+ is supplied to the decimal lights
through CR244 (isolates MB+ from CB+) and R224.
Ground is supplied through S223 (Gate Multiply

S2l9 (Lane 65).
With no pin in either lane 64 and 65, the

and S2l9 in series. A pin in lane 64 transfers
S2l8 to complete the circuit to DS203 (.5). With
a pin in lane 65 the circuit to 05202 is completed
through 5218 by transferred S2l9.
There is no decimal indication light with

The crossfooter non-clear lock control permits blocking of the Sensimatic drive trip through
control unit programming if crossfooter A is not

To release the Sensimatic drive with carriage controls active L222 (Machine Trip) must
be energized through K20l-23 and 24, K245-6
and 7 and a switch network consisting of three
parallel circuits. Normally closed S220 (Crossfooter Non -Clear Lock - Lane 61) is in parallel

Either S252 or 5253, but not both, can be closed

CLEAR PRODUCT ACCUMULA TOR
TAB DELA Y RELA Y (K245)
After prorating or after a power failure during multiplication, it may be necessary to clear
the product accumulator. This may be done,
either by depression of the 6 key with carriage
controls disabled or through control unit programming.
Depression of the A key trips the Sensimatic drive and closes S248 (Manual Clear),
supplying MB+ to S222 (Pulse Multiplier Accumulator Clutch). S222 is closed from fP to
1550 of the Sensimatic cycle to energize L224
(Keyboard Stop), L236 (Symbol Slide Stop) and
L237 (Register Designation Stop) and to pick
L230 (Multiplier Accumulator Clutch) through
5210 (Home Multiplier Accumulator) and K201-4
and 5.
S212 (Pulse Total Bail) is closed from 45 0 to
72 0 30' of multiplier timing switch camshaft
rotation to energize L235 (Total Bail), which
partially indexes the product accumulator total
bail.
At 1600 5210 (Home Multiplier Accumulator)
closes to pick L230 through K20l-4 and 5 for a second product accumulator cycle.

Because of the complex manner in which
it is controlled and since it has several uses, K245
will be treated separately.
K245 is actually a triple purpose, delay pick
relay. Its main function, however. is to delay
the trip of the Sensimatic drive until the program
unit has settled down after the carriage has been
tabulated or returned more than two inches.
With the carriage in a non-multiplying stop
position, depression of a motor bar transfers 5287
(Drive Trip) to complete the ground circuit to
K245 through S257-NC (Full Power), 5223 (Gate.
Multiply Routine) and K201-1 and 2. CB+ is supplied through CR246 which isolates CB+ from MB+.
When K245 picks, K245-6 and 7 complete the CB+
circuit to L222 (Machine Trip) through K201-23
and 24 and 5220 (Lane 61) to release the Sensimatic drive.

repeat or depression of a motor bar. CB+ is supplied to 5222 through 5256 (Gate C.F.A subtract)
and 5215. (Lane 66). 5256 is in the circuit to ensure that the meshing link has been reset before
the accumulator clutch is tripped for a clear
operation.

When the carriage is moving, 5257 is
transferred to supply full power to the magnetic
carriage drive clutch and also to open the ground
circuit of K245. As the carriage reaches a nonmultiplying stop position, S257 normalizes and,
with a motor bar depressed or a repeat of machine operation set up, 1<;245 begins to pick. The
slow pick characteristic of K245 causes a delay

in closing K245 -6 and 7 which complete the CB+
circuit to L222. This ensures alignment of control pins and tappets before the Sensimatic drive

diately drop again repeatedly until K245 did drop
to provide the K201 hold. This would cause ex cessive burning of the K201 pick contacts. CR245,
however, provides a hold path as long as S221 is
closed.

Since it is sometimes desired to select a
motor bar in a multiply position, to prevent loss
of speed multiplication will begin w~thout depression of a motor bar. In order to begin multi !.
plication, however, K245 must be picked. Therefore, since K201 already has been picked before
the carriage enters the multiply stop, K201-2 and
3 bypass 5287 in the K245 ground circuit.

The third purpose of K245 is to' dela y the
release of the decimal shift tappet until the carriage has settled in a stop pOSition. This is
covered in detail in the discussion of the preshift portion of the multiplication routine.

It is not necessary to delay the Sensimatic
drive trip through K245 when the carriage has
moved less than two inches since the carriage will
have been positioned before the Sensimatic camshaft,reaches its home position. A delay is prevented by 5223 in conjunction with 5287 (Drive
Trip). At 350 of the 5ensimatic cycle, 5223
transfers to drop K245 by opening its ground circuit. 5223 remains transferred until 3520 . However, at 3130 , 5287 resets and, since 5223 is still
transferred, the ground circuit of K245 is remade
to repick K245. If, by this time. the carriage has
completed its movement, there is virtually no delay of drive trip.

A second function of K245 is to provide an
alternate hold circuit for K201 to prevent accidental release of K201 by lane 62 pins as the carriage moves between stops. As previously explained, K245 is always normal when the carriage
is moving. Therefore. a set of its normally closed contacts is used to bypass 5216 (Lane 62) contacts with the carriage in motion.
In case it is desired to program a DPM
(Disable Pre-Multiply - Lane 62) and a PM
(Pre-Multiply - Lane 41) in the same carriage
position, 4iode CR245 between S260C and the
normally closed contact of 5216 (Lane 62) is
required to provide an alternate hold circuit
for K201. At 350 of the Sensimatic cycle, 5223
transfers to drop K245 which will provide the
K201 hold through normally closed contacts. At
490 , 5221 closes to provide the pulse to pick K201.
If K245 does not have time to drop before K201
picks, without CR245 K201 would pick and immePrinted in U.S. America 12-1-62

POWER 5UPPL Y

The DC power for the F2000 Computer is
provided by a full wave rectified power supply
mounted inside the rear gate of the machine
stand. An AC powered blower (B202, Fig. 11-13)
also mounted in the gate serves to cool the various electrical components.
The power transformer (T201) isolates the
DC electrical system from the power line and
through acenter-tapped secondary winding facilitates full wave rectification. Rectification
is provided by two silicon diode rectifiers (CR201
and CR202). A 5-ohm series resistor (R228) prevents damage to the rectifiers by reducing the
charging current drawn by the filter capacitor
(C201) as Jre AC power is turned on. A 750-ohm
bleeder resistor (R221) provides voltage regulation
and also discharges the filter capacitor when the
AC power is turned off.
5ince the current requirements of the F2000
are relatively high, a heavy duty AC relay (K205)
is used to control the main input. Depression of
the ON key closes S228 completing the AC circuit
to K205. The ON key is latched electromechanically through the ON key latch solenoid L221. If

Note: Machine block could be held if crossfooter
non clear lock were called for and crosstooter was
not clear.
(4) Fire mesh control solenoid (L 233) via K 201 2 and 1 and S 213. The mesh control mechanism sets
up snatcher bail, transfers S 256 anticipating
negative multiply and makes transfer linkage move
.to a position where it will be active with sensima tic cyc Ie •
(5) Sensimatic drive tripped by motor bar or RPT from
previous stop causes sensimatic cycle which pulls
transfer linkage (via arm driven by main camshaft)
to drive total bail in and mesh accumulator pinions
with add racks. A helper rack turns pinion shaft
so that pinions move at same speed as add racks
until pinions limit on total bail; then studs of
add racks enter lock plates and transfer of product has bEqen effected.
(Note: directional key
block was released by a stud on the sensimatic
camshaft during the transfer cycle.)

SYMBOL STOP SOLENOID
Located on the right side of the machine,
symbol stop solenoid L236 is used to prevent the
movement of the symbol slides when a 20 place
clear is taken, in order that the Delta sign (A)
only will print.
When solenoid L236 is energized and attracts
clapper G, bail C will be free to pivot when the
Sensimatic is operated. As cam I rotates, symbol
restoring arm A is pivoted, expanding spring D
and releasing bail C, which is pivoted upward by
spring H to block the symbol slides. As arm A
is restored to normal by spring D, bail C is reset
on clapper G by stud B.

MOTOR BAR #1 RELEASES NON -CLEAR LOCK

CARRIAGE CONTROL LEVER TO TRANSFER S230

A crossfooter non -clear lock can be released
by transferring the points of S255 from the depression of motor bar #1.
The points of S255 are transferred by lip D
when motor bar #1 is depressed through bellcrank
F, link E and bail C.

CB+ and MB+ voltages lO the computer are
controlled by the position of the carriage control
lever.
When lever A is in a forward pOSition, the
points of S230 are transferred through lip B of
bail G and link H to supply CB+. When lever A
is in a rearward position of the points of S230 are
normal to supply MB+.
TEST AND ADJUSTMENT
Cll-2-1 With lever A in a forward position, the
actuator of S230 should be depressed to within • 025" to • 030" of switch body.
To Adjust, weave bail G as required.
Reason: To ensure positive transfer of the
points of S230.
C &M KEYS

The C & M keys are used by the operator to
change the programmed shift of the machine,
from a unit price multiplication to a price per
hundred by depression of the C key, or a price
per thousand from depression the M key.
On 5/S" tab machines depression of the C
key transfers the points of switches S241 and
S242 through bellcrank C. The lip on bellcrank
C pivots bellcrank B, transferring the points of
S240. Depression of the M key transfers the
points of S240 through bellcrank B.

REGISTER DESIGNATION BLOCKING SOLENOID
The register designation blocking solenoid
located at the front of the machine to the left of
the decimal indicator lights, prevents printing
the register symbol when a 20 place clear is
taken.
When solenoid B is energized clapper D
pivots arm G in front of the stud in rack A blocking its movement.

Sec. III

Reason: To ensure sufficient blocking hold
on register designation rack A and to ensure
cla pper D limiting on the core of solenoid
B for maximum efficiency.
PR5 -2 -2 With clapper D held against its core and
register nine selected, manually cycle the
machine. The stud on the latch of rack A
should enter the cipher tooth space of the lock
plate centrally.
To Adjust, recheck step B of PR5-2-1.
Reason: To ensure free entry of the stud into
the cipher tooth space of the lock plate.
PR5-2-3 With clapper D limiting against clapper
retainer C, there should be .020" to .025"
air gap between the button on clapper D and
the core of solenoid B.
To Adjust, weave retainer C, as required.
Reason: To ensure that bail G clears rack A
with clapper D normal and for minimum
air gap.
MACHINE TRIP INTERLOCK SOLENOID
The machine trip interlock solenoid is located on the outside of the left auxiliary sideframe
and is used to block the Sensimatic drive trip.
The difference in the earlier 5/8" tab and the
present 1/10" tab machines is that solenoid L222
must be energized to permit drive trip on 1/10"
tab machines, whereas on 5/8" tab machines
energizing L222 prevented drive trip.

TESTS AND ADJUSTMENTS
PR5-2-l Manually cycle the machine until register designation rack A reaches its maximum rearward travel (approx. 90 0 ). With
clapper D held against its core, bail G
should:
(a) align centrally with square stud of rack A.
(b) have at least 3/4 hold on the square stud
of rack A without binding on the vertical
surface of the step of bail G.
(c) have at least 3/4 hold on the square stud
of rack A without binding on the horizontal surface of the step of bail G.
To Adjust, (a) bend rear arm of bail G.
(b) starting with the high side at 12 o'clock
turn eccentric screw F as required.
(c) bend front projection E of bail G as reqUired.

Fig. III-9

Burroughs - Series F2000 Instruction Book

Sec. III

When solenoid L222 is de -energized, spring
F urges clapper E against link G which rocks bail
C to position hook A over the ear of trip bail B
and thereby prevents drive trip. When solenoid
L222 is energized, clapper E through link G and
bail C raises hook A to allow drive trip bail B to
move forward and release the clutch dog release
arm.

9

With trip shaft A normal, spring F through
lever C holds the points of 5287 transferred. As
drive trip is set up, trip shaft A rocks lever C
away from the plunger of 5287, permitting the
switch to normalize and complete the ground
circuit of L222 through the N. C. contacts of
S287.
TESTS AND ADJUSTMENTS

TESTS AND ADJUSTMENTS
P7-1-2 There should be .010" to .015" passing
clearance between hook A and the ear of
bail B (see insert 1) with clapper E held
against its core.
To Adjust, loosen solenoid bracket mounting
screws and position as required.
Reason: To prevent a false limit and to ensure release of trip bail B by hook A.
P7-2-1 There should be .010" to .015" clearance
between the straight portion of hook A and
the top edge of the ear of bail B (see insert
2) with clapper E normal.
To Adjust, weave retainer D.
Reason: To ensure sufficient hold of hook A
on the ear of bail B to prevent drive trip.
MACHINE TRIP SWITCH
In order to eliminate the necessity of keeping L222 energized for long periods of time,
machine trip switch S287 is wired into the ground
circuit of L222 (1/10" tab machines only). The
ground circuit to L222 is completed only when
drive trip is set up.

P19-1 With trip shaft A normal and lever C
limiting against stud D, there should be
.050" to .060" clearance between ear E
and the body of S287.
To Adjust, weave ear E as required.
Reason: To prevent energizing the machine
blocking solenoid (L222) with the machine
normal.
P19-2 With a control key partially depressed,
depress motor bar 2. The contact of S287
should not transfer.
To Adjust, bend ear B as required.
Reason: To prevent energizing L222 improperly.
P19-3 With trip shaft A in a tripped position,
there should be no less than. 020" clearance
between ear E and the plunger of S287.
To Adjust, recheck P19-2.
Reason: To permit energizing L222 with
drive trip set up.

DIRECTIONAL KEY BLOCK AND INTERLOCK
SWITCH
The directional key block prevents the depreSSion of the tab and return keys and disengagement of the carriage control lever during the
multiply routine prior to the product transfer
cycle. Switch R (S284) will prevent the start of
multiplication if the directional keys are partially
depressed by blocking slide L.
When solenoid K (L223) is energized, clapper
M moves slide L to the right where it is retained
by latch G in cutout E through tension of spring F.
Latch G releases switch R when it drops into cutout E. With slide L in its latched position, tab
and return keys are blocked from depression by

DECIMAL INDICA TOR LAMPS
A

The purpose of the decimal indicator lamps
is to aid the operator in locating the decimal
point when indexing the multiplier or multiplicand into the "D" section of the machine. The
location of the light is determined by electrical
lane pins in lane 64,65 or neither. Pins in these
lanes in no way effect the multiplication routine.
It is possible to change the physical location of
the lamps, however no more than three can be
installed in any machine.

OPERAND STORAGE UNIT
The function of the operand storage unit is
to store the multiplicand and the multiplier. Located in the D section of the Sensimatic, the unit
is in constant mesh with the add racks. A #2 pin
in lane 33 or 34 of the control unit will allow an
amount to be indexed in the multiplicand or multiplier section of the operand storage unit. Early
in the machine cycle sensing lever D raises bellcrank C, bellcrank C pulls link F rearward rocking bellcrank G which raises detent bail K. This
permits springs L, which couple pinions A to
pinions B, to restore the contact gears J to the
neutral position. (Contact gears J have wiper
contacts facing the printed circuit boards, which
index circuits that represent the multiplicand and
the multiplier.) As the machine cycle continues,
the add racks are driven forward rotating pinions
A which, through springs L, turn pinions B, driving contact gears J to position their contacts on
the printed circuit boards I. After the stud of the
add racks enter the lock plates the sensing lever
D is allowed to restore. From the tension of
spring H the detent bail K is poSitioned in the
tooth space of contact gears J, holding them in
a fixed position. As the racks are restored to
normal, pinions A will be rotated to home position. Since contact gears J are held by detent
bail K, pinions B will also be held and springs L
will be wound up. When detent bail K is raised
again, contact gears J will be restored to the
same position that pinion A is in, through the
tension of springs L.

DRIVE UNIT ASSEMBL Y
The drive unit is used to furnish and control
power to the components unit and the product
accumulator. The drive unit is controlled by a
solenoid operated clutch. Tripping of the drive,
which is belt driven from the constant running
sensimatic motor, results in one cycle of the
product accumulator and one-half cycle of the
components unit.

When the computer clutch solenoid P is
energized, plunger assembly 0 pulls release bail
N rearward (through the connecting pin). Pivoting on its shoulder screw, the forward projection
of release bail N is rocked below the foot of
clutch dog G. Spring S on the clutch dog, pulls
the engaging tooth of the clutch dog into mesh
with the constant running clutch spline F. Limit
M on plunger assembly 0 prevents a premature
release of clutch dog G by blocking the downward
movement of the hooked portion of release bail
N. The enlarged hole in release bail N allows
limit M to be moved rearward, by plunger assembly 0, out of the path of the hooked portion of
release bail N when solenoid P is energized.
The clutch dog is attached to cam E. Cam
E is attached to a drive unit assembly made up
of cam E,gear V, segment gear mounting blank T
and segment gear U, Segment gear U pivots at
point B; its movement is controlled by roller W
riding in enclosed cam A, and by the rotation of
its mounting blank T. If the segment gear U was
not allowed to float on its mounting blank T,
gear Y would ma~e a full rotation at the same

COMPONENTS UNIT
The components unit is located behind the product accumulator, below the add rack extensions,
in the "F" section of the F2000. It is an electromechanical unit whose purpose is to route pulses
from the pulse generator to the product accumulator. The unit consists of four clutch assemblies,
two disk assemblies and two types of sensing switch
assemblies.

CLUTCH ASSEMBLIES
The clutch assemblies provide a means of positioning the discs in the disc assemblies. The
clutch is indexed electrically by a solenoid and
power is supplied by a constant running belt and
pulley assembly which works off the Computer
drive. The disks are moved from one pOSition to
the next in twenty-five milliseconds.

Sec.

m

As the clutch shaft rotates, roll P on bail Q
rides up the inclined surface of snailback cam C,
causing bail Q to pivot and transfer interlock
switches U. As roll P reaches the high point of cam
C, latch S is positioned over latch bail R (riveted
to bail Q) to hold the switches transferred while the
clutch is engaged.
In order to disengage the clutch members, solenoid B is de -energized to allow reset arm J to return (by spring tension) against clutch member E.
As the clutch shaft continues to rotate, reset arm
J cams clutch members E and F apart, by contact ing the cam surface of member E. As the members disengage, member E contacts the tail of
latch S to release latch bail R and allow the clutch
to detent in home position.

DISK ASSEMBLIES:
The components unit contains two printed circuit disk assemblies; the function table assembly
and the shifter assembly. Each assembly consists
of three printed circuit disks. The two outer disks
(A and D) of each assembly are pinned to the disk
shaft and positioned mechanically by a gear on the
disk shaft similiar to C and a clutch worm similar
to G. Center disk B is mechanically independent
of the other disks and is positioned by gear C and
worm G. The positioning of these disks (A and B)
is controlled electrically and will determine
which pulse from the pulse generator is to be applied to a specific column or columns of the product accumulator.
A

Fig. III -38
SEN SIN G SWITCH ASSEMBLIES
There are two types of sensing switch assemblies in the components unit; the sensing contacts
(the platen) and the wiping contacts. The platen
is located between the right hand disks (A) and the
left hand disks (B). The platen is moved rearward
and then forward (by one revolution of the platen
camshaft) to sense the right and left hand disks respectively. Two cycles of the multiplier drive
are required to accomplish one revolution of the
platen camshaft. The wiping contacts are in constant contact with their respective disks to sense
and/or control the positioning of the disks.
Coupler V connects platen drive shaft T to the
multiplier drive unit. Each cycle of the drive
unit results in two and one -half revolutions of
drive shaft T. Five revolutions of drive shaft T.
through worm gear S and camshaft gear R. result
in one cycle of camshaft N. The 1800 rotation of
camshaft N by the first cycle of the drive unit,

Sec. III

causes platen P to move (through rolls L and brackets 0) rearward against disks A and back to normal
position. This is commonly called a right hand
platen stroke. The second cycle of the drive unit,
in a like manner, will cause the platen to move
forward against disks B and back to normal position. This is commonly called a left hand platen
stroke.
The wiping contact assemblies are in constant
contact with their respective printed circuit disks.
As the disks are pOSitioned, these contacts will
make or break various circuits to help control the
process of multiplication.

THE PRODUCT ACCUMULA TOR
The product accumulator provides an electromechanical means of accumulating the product of
multiplication. There are four steps required in
obtaining this product of multiplication in a usable
form. They are:
1. Accumulation of amounts, one to nine, on
individual pinions.
2. Carry mechanism; adding one to the next
left column when nine is exceeded on any
pinion.
3. Rounding off the product in the desired
column and clearing the rounded off column
and those to the right of it.
4. Transferring this product into the basic
machine.

the product accumulator camshaft is rotated cam
M through roller 0 pivots arm N upward. Since
arm N and reset arm Q are both pinned to shaft P,
reset arm Q will pivot upward, plunger L will contact clapper J and move the clapper against solenoid K. Due to the configuration of cam M reset
arm Q moves away from clapper J before pinion
shaft C starts its forward ~counterclockwise) rotation at approximately 73 of the product accumulator cycle. The pulse applied to solenoid K will
determine how long clapper J is held by solenoid
K and the amount accumulated (one through nine).

accumulated, clapper J wil1limit the rotation of

ACCUMULATION OF AMOUNTS
As in other accumulating sections, amounts are
indexed into the product accumulator by rotating
the pinions. The degree of rotation indicates the
number accumulated. The power for pinion rotation is derived from gear H (on the multiplier
drive unit) to gear G and shaft C. Each individual
pinion is connected to shaft C by a slip clutch.
the clutch drum A is pinned to shaft C. Clutch
band B is connected to the pinion assembly by the
stud in D. At normal clapper J is located against
pinion ratchet gear D. In order to rotate the pinion, clapper J must be moved away from gear D
and held away until the proper number has been
accumulated. Due to the large air gap between
clapper J and solenoid K, the strong restoring
spring on clapper J and the small VOltage (hold
voltage only) applied to solenoid K, it is necessary to mechanically reset the clappers against
their solenoid cores. As the clappers are being
reset, gear H through gear G imparts a reverse
rotation (backup) of 12 0 to pinion shaft C. This
reverse (clockwise) rotation is necessary to allow
clapper J to catch the same tooth of gear D if no
amount is to be accumulated in that column. As

Fig. III-42
Rebound of clapper reset arms Q and possible
interference with the return of clapper J to the
proper step of ratchet gear D is prevented by two
trap-latches S. At normal traplatch S is held out
of the path of ear T 9'inned to shaft P) by cam R.
At approximately 20 cam R releases traplatch S.
When clapper reset shaft P restores to normal, at
approximately 500 , traplatch S moves behind ear
T to prevent rebound. This is the add portion
(0 0 - 230 0 ) of the product accumulator cycle and
is followed immediately by the carry portion.

Reason: To ensure proper actuation of the

THE CARRY MECHANISM
The high speed of the product accumulator
can be attributed in part to its unique carry
mechanism. All carries, direct or relay, occur
simultaneously. This system requires not only an
indication of direct carries but also an indication
of which pinions, if any, are in the nine position
(for relay carries). These indications are provided by positioning carry wipers W on the printed circuit board as shown. The "A" pads are
"dead" and have no electrical function. They
are present only to prevent wear of the printed
circuit board by wipers W. All pads "S" are
connected in common to the normally open
contact of timing cam switch 8208, which supplies the carry pulse (2760 to 3400 ). Pads "C"
are connected through pads "D" to the dropping
resistor of the next left adjacent pinion solenoid.
LNUMBER

, 2,NINE

31

With the carry mechanism normal (0 through
8 on the pinion) pads "A" are bridged by carry
wiper W. When there is a nine on the pinion
pads "C" and "E" are bridged. When a carry
has been initiated, wiper W will be positioned to
bridge pads "B" and "C". As can be seen by the
illustration of these three conditions, the carry
pulse received on the "S" pads is bridged, in the
carry position to the "D" and "E" pads of the next
left pinion. If this next left pinion is in the nine
position ("C" and "E" pads bridged) the "D" and
"E" pads of the second left pinion will also
receive the carry pulse. In this manner direct
and relay carries are accomplished simultaneously
using the same pulse.
At the beginning of the product accumulator
cycle (add portion) reset arms AE move carry
wiper positioning arms AS (commonly called the
hatchet) upward. Hatchet AB moving upward
contacts stud Z in carry latch Y to reset the carry
latch in front of latch bail X (carry reset). By
550 carry reset arms AE have moved into the
initial carry position and will remain in this position (Fig. III -45) until the end of the of the add
portion of the cycle (2450 ). At this time clapper
reset and pinion "backup" again take place. At
the same time reset arms AE move downward to
allow hatchet Ab to limit in either number, nine
or carry position as determined by pinion rotation
during the add portion of the cycle.

Reset arms AE are actuated from three sets
of double cams AK on the product accumulator
cam shaft, through arms AJ and rollers AI assisted
by springs AH. As can be seen from the product
accumulator timing chatt in Section VII, carry
reset begins at approximately 3450 of the previous cycle and is completed by 550 of the
current cycle. From 550 to 2450 , reset arms
AE are in pre-carry position. It is during this
time that the carry wiper position is indexed by
releasing carry latch Y and positioning cam
follower AG. Hatchet AB is prevented from dropping by reset arms AE. From 2450 to 3450 reset
arms AE move downward allowing hatchets to
seek their limit as determined by the positioning
of carry latches Y and cam followers AG. It
will be noted that carry latch Y cannot be reset
behind latch bail X if the pinion is in nine position during carry reset.

ROUNDING-OFF AND CLEARING
It is often necessary to round-off products to
the nearest cent, dime, dollar, or ten dollars.
This is controlled through control panel programming and is accomplished during the right hand
accumulator cycle in shifter position 21, by adding five to the product accumulator column corresponding to keyboard column zero, one, two,
or three. If the amount on the selected pinion is
five or more, a carry into the left adjacent accumulator column will result.
For greater accuracy of products, eight of
the twenty accumulator pinions are located to the
right of the first add rack. Since there is no mechanical shift, these pinions cannot be cleared
of amounts by the add racks and consequently
have no gears to mesh with add racks. Clearing
is accomplished by latching in the total bail,
which performs the same function as the total
bail of a basic mechanical accumulator, and
turning the pinions through the accumulator
drive until their total lobes limit on the underside of the total bail.
During the left hand accumulator cycle in
shifter position 21, prior to transferring the product, the accumulator colUmn to which the five
had been added during round -off and all columns
to its right are cleared. This "clear" accumulator cycle is identical to an add cycle except that
the total bail is latched in and the only pulse re-

Sec. III

celVed by the pinion solenoids is the "nine"
pulse from S209. Thls "nine" pulse is gated to
the accumulator columns designated to be cleared by control panel programming. When a designated solenoid is receiving its "nine" pulse and
tJ:ie total bail is latched in, the corresponding pinion rotates with the pinion drive shaft until its total lobe limits on the total bail. At this point,
the pinion clutch slips as the drive shaft conti~'7
ues to turn.
Through control panel programming, both
rounding -off and clearing or rounding -off only
may be prevented. This is accomplished by
disabling the electrical circuits for the round -off
and/or clear pulses which would ordinarily reach
the pinion solenoids. Disabling of both roundingoff and clearing is known as proJ.:ating. However,
the "round-off' and "clear" accumulator cycles
as previously described are always required.
During a normal add accumulator cycle the
total bail is ultimately retained in inactive pOSition by total bail solenoid clapper AM The clapper retains bail AN which is urged against the
clapper by spring AV •
Initial indexing of the total bail mechanism
occurs at approximately 900·~f the "round-off"
accumulator cycle when total bail solenoid BD
(L235) is energized to pull in and hold clapper
AM out of the path of bail AN. Spring AV urges
bail AN to limit its roller AU against cam AW of
the accumulator camshaft assembly.

Early in the next accumulator cycle, which
is the "clear" cycle, bail AN follows cam A Wand
contacts ear AQ of latch bail AX to rock bail AX
clear of bail AY. Roller BA of bail AR follows
cam AZ, urged by spring AS. Bail AR rocks bail
A Y through stud AP in bail AR and the slot in bail
AY. Stud BB in bail A Y contacts arm AO, which
is pinned to the total bail shaft, rocking total bail
AT into active position. Movement of the total
bail is limited when arms AO and BH contact eccentric posts BE and BI, respectively, in the accumulator sideframes. Bail AN is reset at ap'0
proximately~5: of the clear cycle.
With the accumulator normal, the rollers of
two total bail latches BI. one of which is shown,
are urged against cams BG of the accumulator
camshaft by springs BF. In this position the
latches are held clear of latching arms BK of
total bail assembly AT, and arms BN of the total
bail assembly rest against bumpers BM on transfer
shaft BL to establish the normal position of the
total bail. For simplicity, only one arm BN and
bumper BM are shown in the illustration.
At approximately 250 of the accumulator
cycle, cams BG permit the springs to rock the
latches against the lower ends of the latching
arms. If the total bail has not been brought into
active position, the latches merely contact the
flat surface at the ends of the latching arms. If,
however, the total bail is in active position, the
latches contact the latching arms behind the
latching step and retain the total bail. The total
bail is latched in to prevent camming of the bail
by the total lobes.

The total bail is restored latei:r the accumu1ator cycle. At approximately 350 , the total
bail latches BI, driven by cams BG, release the
total bail. Bail AR is restored by its cam at approximately the same time, restoring the total
bail through spring Be.
TESTS AND ADJUSTMENTS
A36-10 With total bail solenoid clapper AM

Burroughs - Series F2000 Instruction Book

As enclosed cams Cl pivot to raise the pinion assembly, studs CT and CO contact bails CS
and CL, of the total bail shaft assembly, to rock
the total bail through springs CM and CU into
position to limit the total lobe of the pinions on
the top side of the total bail. As during the clear
operation, it is necessary to latch the total bail
in active position. However, since the product
accumulator is not cycled, this cannot be accomplished by latches BJ. For this reason, two
additional latches BJ -1 are provided. At normal
these latches are held inactive by two pins CR
located in transfer shaft CPo As the transfer shaft
is rotated at the beginning of the transfer operation, pins CR move away from latches BJ -1 to
allow the latches to lock the total bail in active
position. Movement of the total bail toward the
pinions is limited as before by arms AO and BH
contacting eccentric posts BE and Bl.
If the add racks were required to overcome
the friction clutches to turn the pinions, the load
would be so great that add rack latches would position in the lock plates before the total lobes
could limit on the total bail. To prevent this, an
auxiliary drive rack CW (helper rack) drives the
pinions at the same speed as the add racks thru a
link which in turn, connects to the left end of the
add rack control shaft. As the pinion assembly is
raised, the pinion drive gear G leaves its mating
gear H of the drive unit and meshes with auxiliary
drive rack CWo The pinions aye turned until
the~ total lobes limit on the top of the total bail,
limiting the movement of the add racks and causing the add rack latch studs to enter the lock
plates.

TWENTY-PLACE CLEAR
After prorating or after a power failure during a multiplication it is necessary to clear all
of the twenty accumulator pinions. This may be
done through control panel programming, or by
depression of the delta key with the carriage
controls disabled.
To initiate a twenty-place clear operation
it is necessary to trip the Sensimatic drive. This
is done by depressing the delta key in the case of
a manual clear or by programming a repeat for a
carriage controlled clear.
At 50 of the Sensimatic cycle, S222 of the
Sensimatic timing cam assembly closes. Voltage is applied to S222 through S248 for a manual
clear or through S215 for a programmed clear.
S222 energizes the keyboard stop solenoid, symbol slide stop solenoid, and the register designation stop solenoid, all of which are discussed in
detail under their own headings. Closing S222
also trips the accumulator clutch.

SIDE INSERTION CONTROL UNIT
The Side Insertion Control Unit is designed to
give rigid support to its 22" carriage construction
and the potential of greater programming flexibility.
It is an independently supported mechanism
which travels on ball bearings between the rear
carriage rail and a stationary third rail. The
carriage drive is furnished through a conventional
type gear box with spindles mounted on the back
plate, supported with ball bearings.
With the carriage in its right end position, the
panel is inserted from the right side, using a guide
channel to help locate the panel between the raceways. The panel will latch in position when the
ram lug on the end of the skip and return shaft
closes the jaws of the latch plate mechanism.
To remove the panel from the machine, return the carriage to the right end limit and position lever A rearward to release the latch plate
mechanism.

of the machine the front jaw must be manually
closed to release this lock. Before inserting the
panel the jaw must be re-opened to accept the
ram lug.
To change schedules the carriage must be in
the right end position and the job selector knob
pressed in and rotated to the desired schedule. The
knob will return to its detented position in any
schedule selected.
The only change in programming the lanes of
control is that lanes 61 thru 66 are used for functions formerly programme d in lanes 46 thru 51.
The following is a detailed description of the
mechanisms and adjustments.
CONTROL UNIT CONSTRUCTION
Structural Frame
The structural frame of the control unit is a
rigid casting with grooves milled along the front
and rear edges. These grooves are fitted with
selective race way shafts A to provide bearing
points for the ball bearings. Five different size
shafts are a vailab Ie, each increasing in diameter
by • 001", and are precision se lected at the factory
to provide control units of uniform width. The
size of the shafts can be determined by the number
of grooves cut in the recessed portion of the shafts.

shaft, two grooves; No. 4 shaft, three grooves; and
No.5 shaft, the largest (. 127") will have four
grooves. There should be no need to change the
size of these shafts after they h ave been selected
at the Factory, however, if an analysis of a problem proves this necessary always maintain equal
size shafts in anyone race way.

Adjustable Inserts
Twenty-eight adjustable inserts E are fitted to
the casting to adjust and anchor the stop, disk and
control pin assemblies. The insert is a hollow screw
which threads thru the casting and is locked in
place by lock nut B.
The stop, disk and control pin assemblies are
anchored to the adjustable inserts by flat head
screw F, lock washer D and round nut C. This
method of attachment permits vertical and some
lateral adjustment of these assemblies the full
length of the carriage. The inserts have been
adjusted at the factory to a pre -determined dimension and only minor vertical adjustment
should be necessary to obtain the correct relationship between the control pins or disks and sensing
tappets.

Adjustable Side Plates
Adjustable side plates AI are fastened to the
ends of the casting to give support and location to
the stop and disk shafts. Eccentric G is pre-set at
the factory to position the stop dogs and skip disks
in correct relationship with their respective latches.
Brace J is a support for the right side plate and
should be held against the side plate when screws
H are tightened.
To assemble or change stops or disks the
left side plate is removed by unpinning or disassembling necessary parts on left end of stop
and disk shaft, removing 2 mounting screws and
screw cap AJ.
When stops and disks have been assembled,
locate stop and disk shaft braces against front
and rear edges of support plate P and tighten securely. The side plate is reassembled using the
stop and disk shaft and eccentric G as locating
points. Reassemble screws and pins.

Stop and Disk Shaft Assembly
The stop and disk shafts are attached to
support plate P by braces Wand O. Six adjustable inserts are located above this assembly with
support plate P being anchored at 4 places.
Braces Wand 0 can be located at any point
on the support plate with the exception of the areas
around the four screws Q. When locating braces
on the shafts it is not necessary to allow room for
lateral movement of the stops and disks as the
braces move with these parts during schedule
changes.

Job selector knob AG is attached to the disk
shaft through a pin and slot connection. To change
schedules the knob must be pressed in before rotating. which moves detent M thru shaft AD and plate
AE out of the path of blocks L and X on the stop
and disk shafts. When the schedule change has
been completed. spring AH restores knob AG to
normal and allows detent M to seat between blocks
Land X. Detent M is not only a means to hold
the stop and disk shafts in a stationary position but
is also adjustable to provide a parallel condition
between the disks and the skip and return latches
and sensing tappets. The end position release arms
for the latches have been removed from the carriage
side frames and this function will now be performed
by brackets AA and S mounted on the stop and
disk shafts.
The spiral worm gear K thru worm nut AC will
move the control unit pins 1/10" to the right or
left for each quarter turn of the job selector knob.
Worm nut AC is adjustable to align the control pins
with the sensing tappets.

NOTE: On early control units the front two
magazine trays are attached to the casting
with only 6 adjustable inserts. To stablize
the center section of the trays 8 allen
screws have been added to the casting.
After the trays have been adjusted for
height the allen screws should be screwed
down to the tray to keep it from tilting
during machine operation.

Magazine Trays
The control pins and magazines for lanes 6
thru 25 and 31 thru 50 are contained in magazine
trays I. each of which is secured to the casting by
8 adjustable inserts. Four reference magazines
are required in each tray and they should be located
close to the adjustable inserts to ensure uniform
height of the pins with the tappets the full length
of the carriage.
The control pins and magazines for the electrical lanes 51 thru 66 are in a magazine tray
which is attached to the casting by 6 adjustable
inserts. Four magazines with ground pins are in
this tray as reference points for factory setting of
the magazine tray.
To reduce the side play of the electrical
magazines a notched scale has been placed in
the bottom of the tray. In addition to this the
electrical sensing pins have been shortened to
reduce the arc thru which the pin will travel when
the magazine moves from side to side. To compensate for the shorter pin the switch actuators
have been lengthened. The adjustment of the
lane switch assembly should be made in the same
manner and meet the same conditions as previous
1/10" machines.

Support Rails for Control Unit
To support the control unit in the machine
the rear carriage rail, which is fixed to the machine side frames, has been modified to include a
groove, milled along its rear edge. A similar! y
grooved third rail located to the rear of the
machine is mounted on auxillary side frames
fastened to the base of the machine. Both rails
are fitted with raceway bearing shafts held in
place by the rail end caps. A bearing cage containing 12 ball bearings is attached to each rail to
provide free movement of the control unit between the two rails.
The third rail can be adjusted vertically thru
bracket AM and eccentric AN to obtain a parallel
condition of the control pins with the tappets. The
distance between the two rails is adjusted by set
screw A P to provide a free running unit without
sag.
Easy insertion of the control unit into the raceways has been obtained thru the use of a guide
channel AR which is fitted to the top of the casting.
The unit is inserted from the right side of the
machine by engaging the guide pins AS into the
grooved bar which is attached to the carriage, and
sliding the unit into position.

Fig. III-62
LA TCH PLA TE ASSEMBL Y
The latch plate mechanism, attached to the
outside of the left carriage side frame, provides
the means of coupling the control unit to the
carriage. This coupling action is performed by
toggle jaws P and R closing around the ram lug on
the left end of the disk shaft. To prevent disengagement of toggle jaws during carriage movement,
wedge slide G is positioned by spring H between
the toggle jaws causing them to be locked in the
closed position when the carriage is out of the right
end position. Rotation of the job selector knob is
prevented when the lower cut-out in slide M is
seated around the projections on the ram lug. To
change schedules the carriage is moved to its
extreme right position where arm V is raised when
the nylon skid on the rear carriage rail contacts
welded tab T. Arm V pivoting at stud L, contacts
the forward lip of arm I and pivots the curved end
downward against eccentric K. This action pivots
link J around stud L to raise lock slide M, thru stud
N, clear of the projections on the ram lug. Aslock
slide M is raised, it contacts eccentric collar F to
raise wedge slide G slightly to release the pressure
of spring H on toggle jaws Rand P.
The raising of arm V by the nylon skid also
rocks arm W, thru spring S to swing the upper projection of bellcrank X out of the path of stud D on
release lever A • This will allow arm A to be
positioned rearward to initiate removal of the
control unit. When release lever A is manually

moved rearward the comming action of stud D
against arm E raises wedge slide G from between
toggle jaws P and R. Release lever A is retained
in its rearward position by the spring tension on
wedge slide G holding arm E in a deten ting position for stud D.
When the control unit is removed from machine,
jaws P and R pivot open and are held in this position
by the toggle action of springs Q. As jaw P opens,
its button stud cams wedge slide G further upward
releasing its pressure on arm E. This allows release
arm A to return to its forward position thru spring
C.
When the control unit is re-inserted into the
machine, the ram lug contacts the rear portion of
jaws P and R causing them to close around the ram
lug. As the button stud on jaw P moves out of the
path of wedge slide G the slide is moved to its
locking position between the toggle jaws.
Carriage Lock
The purpose of the carriage lock is to retain
the carriage in its extreme right end position when
the control unit is being installed or until a schedule
change has been completed. With the carriage in
its extreme right position and release lever A moved
rearward to its detented position, arm E thru link
Y, lifts arm Z away from stud AA in blocking arm
AC. Spring AB will cause arm ACto pivot intofa

slot in the front side of the rear carriage rail,
locking the carriage in the end position.
To prevent release of the lock when the control unit is removed and release lever A is restored
to normal, jaw R contacts the lower lip on arm Z
to maintain arm Z in its actuated position. When
the control unit is re-inserted the ram lug closes
jaw R into its coupling position thereby releasing
the carriage lock. With the carriage in the extreme right position and the job selector knob
partially rotated the square block on the left end
of the stop shaft, contacts the vertical lip on arm
Z to pivot arm Z away from stud AA. Spring AB
moves arm AC into the slot of the rear carriage
rail locking the carriage in the end position until
the stop and disk shafts are detented squarely.
End Position Limit Post
The end position limit post is located on the
inside of the left carriage side frame and will
establish the extreme right position of the carriage.
It is adjusted to ensure that the carriage lock is
aligned with the cut out iIl.,.the carriage rail.

MULTIPLE FACTOR STORAGE
Multiple factor storage is an optional feature of F2000 machines with 1/10" tabulation. It
greatly increases the storage capacity of the machine by permitting the multiplicand storage unit
to be "split" electrically and only certain sequential columns of the multiplicand to be "read"
through control panel programming.
Indexing of the multiplicand is accomplished in the same manner as with other machines:
However, two or three multiplicand factors may
be indexed simultaneously if the multiplicand is
later "split" through the multiple factor controls.
This, of course, results in considerable saving of
time.
The multiple factor components are arranged in a single unit mounted inside the door of
the machine stand. The functional components
include four relays, nine diodes and two five-position switches. For reference, the wiring diagram
deSignations of the relays are K206 through K209,
the diodes CR210 through CR218, and the switches
S281 and S282.
Utilization of multiple factor storage is begun by manually positioning rotary switches S281
and S282. The switches may be set to divide the
multiplicand storage unit into either two or three
parts. With the switches set as shown in Figure
V -I, for example, the splits are between Columns
4 and 5, and between Columns 8 and 9. This
divides the multiplicand data into three parts.

Fig. V-I
Multiple factor split-active relay K206 is
normally picked in the same carriage position as
pre-multiply relay K201. To accomplish this a
Printed in U.S. America

1 pin is used in Lane 41 (on machines without the
adjustable mechanism in Lane 41 it is necessary
to use a "lA" pin which is copper plated for
identification). The sensing of the I (or" lA")
pin causes not only the multiply relay (K201) but
also the split-active relay (K206) to be picked.
K206 is held through a 10K resistor and a set of
its own normally open contacts from S207-C (same
as K201). K206 is also picked when a "3" pin
(Negative-Multiply) is used in Lane 41. Since it
ma y not be desirable to have split -factors every
time Negative Multiply is set up with a "3" pin,
K206 can be dropped in the next carriage position
by the use of an electrical pin in Lane 47 (DPM)
which breaks the hold circuit to K206.
During the pre -shift portion of the multiply
routine, two of the three matrix relays, K207
through K209, are picked. Which two depends
upon which decimal shift is being used. As shown
in the diagram in Figure V -2, the B+ from the
selected pad of S264 (Lane 44 - Decimal Shift) is
applied to the diode matrix on TB203. These
diodes gate the B+ to the proper relays. The
ground circuit for the matrix relays contains a set
of normally open contacts of K206.
With K206 picked in a multiply position, a
shift of 2 will cause energizing of matrix relays
K208 and K209, a shift of 5 will cause energizing
of K207 and K209, and a shift of 8 will cause energizing of K207 and K208. A shift of 7 is not designed to permit a multiplicand split but will cause
all of the data in the multiplicand storage unit to be
utilized. This is because the 7 shift would be more
difficult to program due to a decimal point consideration.
Only normally closed contacts of the matrix
relays are used. These contacts have been inserted
in the column common lines of the multiplicand
storage unit. Therefore, picking a matrix relay
causes its contacts to open and, in effect, disconnect certain columns of the multiplicand storage
unit. This gives an indication of zero in the affected columns.
The diagram in Figure V-I shows the interrelationship between the rotary switches and the
matrix relays. It should be noted that switch settings have no effect on columns 9, 10, 11 and 12.

Section V

Since the hold circuit for K206 gets its B+
from the same point as the hold circuit for K201,
the same means used to drop K201 will also drop

Back voltages from S277 (Right Hand Shifter
Position Selector) are blocked by diodes CR210,
CR211 and CR212. Without these diodes matrix
relays would be momentarily picked and dropped
as S277 is moved to different positions. This
would cause loss of various parts of the multiplicand during the multiplication routine and would
result, of course, in wrong products.

K206.

Dropping of K206 causes any matrix relays
previously picked also to drop because a set of
normally open contacts of K206 are in their
ground circuit.

CCNDITION: Fai ling to multiply as a result of dropping the pre-multiply
relay in a carriage position where an adjacent magazine contains a DPM
pin.
CAUSE: Carriage overthrow, at the completion of a tabulation or return,
permits the DPM pin, located in the magazine next to the active magazine,
to momentarily open S216 before S227 is closed again, allowing K20l to
drop out.

CDRRECTIDN:

Instal1,as required,a capacitor in parallel with the normal- .
1y closed contacts of S216, to delay the drop out of K201 from transfer
of S216.

PROCEDURE:
1. Cut the taper tab receptacle off the single wire on S227 N.D. terminal.;
2. ct:l.mp a, double taper tab receptacle, to the end of an 1Bu length of
wire"., together with the wire in Step 1 and' place on tab of $227 N.D.
3. Using a solder less terminal, connect the other end of the IB" wire to
TB20BA-4. (Move 6 wires located at TB208A and B2, 3, 4, one place to
the right, facing the rear of machine, leaving terminals 4 and 5 free
for new wiring.) Keep all new wires parallel and secured to existing
harness wiring. .
4. Remove the w~res from S216C.
5. Using a solderlessterminal, connect the wires that connected S2l6c
to S227C (step 4) together with one end of an 8" wire to TB20B.A-5.
6. USing a double taper tab receptacle, connect the other end of
the 8" wire to S2l6c along with the wire that goes to S207NC

CONDITION: Wrong multiplication.
CAUSE: Induced voltage surges When L23l or L225 drop out results in
the breakdown of CR204. The breakdown ofCR204 causes the right
hand shifter to overstep on one step shifts due to the hold circuit
created by the shorted CR204 and resistor 2B3 holding L226.picked
until K203 drops out.
CORRECTION: Install arc suppression diodes (lFB906) across
L23l and L225.

CONDITION;

Unusual noise or locking on product ttMSfers.

CAUSE: 'Wear oftadmium. plated nuts IH"(P1ate22, Series F2000 Symbol
Book, dated 12-1-60) or unhardened add rack extensions, "A," (Plate
23, Series F2000 Symbol Book, dated l2-1~60) 'results in 'the stud on
the add rack latch failing to enter the lo'6kplate centrally on a

CORRECTION: Install new hardened concentric nut FX57-88 (no change
in symbol) or eccentric FX57-44 (early construction, no change in
symbol) and new hardened add rack extensions FMTl10-1 (no cha~ge in
symbol). HardenedFMT1l0-1 extensions ordered prior to 11-1-60 can
be identified by the red marking on their upper edge. Parts ordered
after 11-1-60 are of improved type regardless or marking. The new
hardened nuts can be identified due to their unp1ated finish.
INSTALLATION RE(lJIREMENTS: Machines which have worn nuts require new
hardened nuts and hardened extensions.
,Machines which have worn extensions require the new hardened extensions. These machines will have black or copper plated nuts which
may be used with the new extensions.
When installing add racks, the unplated nuts and hardened extensions
should b~ used. Use of only one hardened part accelerates wear of
the other.
Branch and grip stock of all extensions without the red marking which
were stocked prior to 11-1-60 should be discarded upon receipt of
the new parts. Branch and grip stock of all FX57-44 and FX57-88
plated nuts should be discarded upon receipt of the new unplated nuts.
INSTALl.ATION TIME: ApprOXimately three hours are required to replace
these nuts and extensions in one machine.
INCORPORATION DATE: Machines above serial number F105000p contain hardened concentric nuts and extensions.

Install redesigned pl.nl.on assembly 2FHA27; no change in
(Plate 31, dated 9-25-61, Series F2000 Symbol Book).

The nylon drum in the new assembly has cross grooves which are filled
with Alvania EP No.1 grease. The nylon band uses a stronger girth
spring Fx8o-l46 (no change in part number). With this design, foreign
matter is trapped in the grooves and a more constant clutch tension
is assured. Inspection of the nylon drums should be made on each P.H.
·to ensure presence of grease in grooves. Use only Alvania EP No.·l
when filling grooves (SF136).
These new sections can be identified by the gray color of the,pinion
shaft next to bronze bearing (i.n R, Plate 31) and/or theFMA33 clutch

Multiple Factor Storage
Beginning with machine number F137298p and Canadian number FI0632C, the
wiring for the M.F.S. feature is changed and uses a later style 2FMRl-l
Multiple Factor Storage unit. The later style 2FMRl-l provides for a 7
shift and a 5 shift to activate the middle section of the MC. With
early 2FMRl-l units, the 7 shift did not activate the feature. This
change primarily is to accommodate the rate change in F.I.C~A. deductions
from 3% (.03) to 3 5/8% (.03625).
The wiring schematic furnished with the machine will show if the machine
is wired for the early or late style FMRl-l unit. Order the units from
Parts Distribution as 2FMRl-l Early Style or 2FMRl-l Late Style.
Beginning with machine number F126931, the lane 41 sensing lever assembly
incorporates an eccentric to aid in adjusting the position of the wipers
on s260. In machines with this eccentric, the Multiple Factor Storage
feature (either early or late style) is indexed with a 1 pin instead of
the lA pin used previously. (See Page 19, Section III, Tests C37-6 and
C 37-5, and Page 3, Section V.)

This pin and the spring retainer ring FXIO-482 (part F) are used for replacement in both new and old style platen assemblies.
This information is supplied to provide the means of replacing a broken
platen spring (part E). Press the spring retainer ring onto the FX87-30
pin a distance equal to that of adjacent pins. It will be helpful to
slightly chamfer the end of the pin, but do not mar the end surface that
contacts the printed circuit disk.

Adjusting Side Insertion Panels
All side insertion control units are factory adjusted to pre-determined
height in a test fixture. This height setting should be very close to the
required adjustment in any machine, but it must b.e checked and refined if
~ecessary during shop checkout.
Once made in the machine, it should not be
necessary to readjust. However, the lateral alignment of the pins and tappets
must be checked and adjusted during checkout procedures. Refer to Page 45,
Section III, dated 12-1-62, Tests CIO-3-9, CIO-3-10, and CIO-3-27.

Worn components unit clutches causing:
Premature cycling of the product accumulator. This is evidenced
by marks on the platen side of the printed circuit disks indicating sensing of the disks while they are moving. However,
this could be caused also by a malfunctioning interlock switch.
Therefore, interlock switches and adjustments (Section III, Page .

INSTALLATION TIME: Approximately one hour is required to repair one
clutch assembly.
INCORPORATION DATE: Improved clutches are incorporated in machines
beginning with serial F139949P.
PROCEDURE: If one or both function table clutches or one or both
shifter clutches are to be replaced, use the following procedure:
1. Remove the components unit.
2. Remove the corresponding components unit end plate.
3. Remove the screws holding the clutch shaft end bracket and remove the bracket.
4. Remove the clutch shaft. Observe the number and position of
clutch shaft shims.

Check the driving clutch member to be free. If it is not free,
disassemble the pin and collar. Using a file or emery cloth, remove enough stock from the inside surface of the collar to permit
the clutch to turn freely and reassemble the pin and collar.
Reassemble the remaining parts in reverse order. Care should be
observed to have the printed circuit disk in the proper position
as the worm gear on the clutch shaft is remeshed with the nylon
gear on the disk. Refer to Section III, pages 28 and 29, dated
12-1-62, tests Rll-l, Rll-2 and Rll-7. If the gears are incorrectly meshed, it will be impossible to meet tests Rll-2 and
Rll-7without remeshingthem.
If both a function table clutch and a shifter clutch or all of
the clutches are to be replaced, disregard Step 2. Instead,
remove the three screws holding the clutch assemblies to the
front and/or back .plate and remove the front and/or back plate.

SPLIT PLATEN SPACING LOCK-UP

This occurs when the left and/or right actuating arm lowers during a spacing operat
and the space bail restores, jamming the small stud on the toggle on top of the IO~
actuating arm. This prevents the space bail from restoring to normal and also prevents a drive trip.
A temporary solution is to weld a #5 control pin to the actuating arm, thereby
increasing its length so that it cannot be trapped under the stud on the toggle.
