Error Correction In A Remote Meter Reading Device

US Patent:
4214152, Jul 22, 1980
Filed:
May 12, 1978
Appl. No.:
5/905538
Inventors:
Donald T. Hess - Garden City NY
Assignee:
Cain Encoder Company - Greenville NC
International Classification:
G06M 312
US Classification:
235 92EC
Abstract:
In a remote meter reading device involving a plurality of dials, mechanical inaccuracies in the hand position are compensated for by dividing each dial into sectors, sequentially reading each dial starting with the least significant dial and adding, to each subsequent reading after the first, a correction factor based on the sector of the dial pointer of the previous reading.
