Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for processing changeable service data structures and display texts in a processing module according to the preamble of claim 1 and an arrangement for carrying out the method according to the preamble of claim 7.
  • the solution aims in particular the output of changed display texts depending on the change in a new postage fee table in a postage calculator module.
  • the method is suitable for users of postage-calculating franking machines, postage computer scales or similar processing modules for service data.
  • a data input into a balance is known which is connected in terms of interface to a franking machine in order to update tariff table data with data.
  • the data is loaded from a remote data center via modem to the franking machine.
  • the loading and updating takes place in direct succession. If there is information that tariff table data has to be updated, loading and, if necessary, temporary storage of tariff table data in the franking machine and sector-wise deletion of the old postage table in the non-volatile memory of the balance prior to the transfer of the new tariff table data from the temporary storage of the franking machine to the balance and writing the new tariff table data into the non-volatile memory of the scale.
  • Several tables can be stored in the scale.
  • each table refers to a separate mail carrier (carrier), which can be selected via the keyboard.
  • carrier which can be selected via the keyboard.
  • the minimum validity date of a tariff table assigned to a carrier identification number CIN is stored and evaluated by the franking machine in order to form request data for loading new tariff table data or for updating in the memory of the balance according to the CIN, if necessary.
  • the postage computer module must be replaced, the latter being able to be coupled both to a balance and to a franking machine.
  • the coupling of the postage computer module to a basic device must be carried out by the user.
  • the display unit of the basic device should display screens, whereby ASCII display texts must be correctly classified in the respective menu.
  • this solution is only suitable if the screen images stored in the program memory can be retained. In the case of very different basic devices, which likewise have a very different user interface, such a classification encounters considerable difficulties. This solution is unsuitable if previous screens have to be discarded and entire screens have to be created and added to the program because the structure of the display has changed fundamentally. It is of course a disadvantage if the program memory of the base unit would also have to be replaced in addition to the postage computer module.
  • the shipping parameter texts were displayed differently depending on the machine. All texts were stored in a memory that is only intended for the operating software. When the texts were changed, the operating software of the machine had to be replaced, ie a technician exchanged the operating software of the machine at the customer's site. As a result, the costs were very high.
  • Another variant of the display of the individual shipping parameters was keyboard foils that were glued to the machine's keyboard. A shipping parameter was assigned to each key. If only one shipping parameter was changed, the entire keyboard membrane had to be replaced. This also resulted in high costs. The exchange of hardware elements should therefore be reduced.
  • the object was to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art and to provide an arrangement and a method for processing changeable service data structures and display texts in a processing module in order to display display texts in the base unit which correspond to the changed service data structures.

From the first root table, the microprocessor 1 learns which carrier is used. To read the display texts belonging to the postage table or to calculate a postage value using the postage table, the data is accessed via the second root table (FIG. 3b). With the aid of the second root table in the sub-memory areas 330, the microprocessor 1 comes to the addresses of the tables with the display texts.

  • the operating software is generated at a specific point in time x, ie compiled and linked to an executable program. This operating software thus knows which information is located where in the service data memory. It has been determined that this is at a specific address in the memory space. This address is known to the operating software.
  • the procedure is as follows: Pointers are located at a start address known to the operating software and point to the individual tables with information in the separate memory. These pointers point to the start addresses of the individual tables. These pointers are located in the original table (root table).
  • the text to be output for the shipping parameter is a string variable deposited.
  • the maximum number of possible characters is due to the Display size and division predefined and different. Depending on Different string lengths are possible for the structure of the display window.

  • the root table which contains pointers to the individual start addresses of the tables in the separate memory areas, is located at a specific address in the service data store.
  • the tables with the strings to be output on the display are located at different locations in the service data memory. If the software is compiled and linked, the compiler or linker determines at the time of translation the addresses at which the individual software parts are stored in the service data memory. These addresses are stored in the root table so that the operating software can access the individual tables in the service data memory.
  • Reloadable software now shows the following state:
  • the operating software which is installed in the respective machine (for example weighing machine or franking machine), was compiled at a time x.
  • the operating software knows where to look for the root table in the service data storage.
  • the tables in the separate memory areas are accessed via the root table. If a new postage table is generated for the existing operating software at a later time, the tables in the service data memory are again at different locations than in the last version of the postage table that was generated at time x.
  • the pointers to the tables are stored in the root table.
  • the start addresses of the individual tables now differ from those of the software generated at time x.
  • the operating software always uses the root table to access the tables. In this way, the content (and thus also the strings for the output on the display) and the size of the individual tables can change without having to change the operating software.
