Software Product Description
PRODUCT NAME: DIGITIZER UTILITIES, Version 1.0
DESCRIPTION:
The Digitizer Utilities are a set of FORTRAN callable
subroutines, available under RSX-11 M and VAX/VMS,
for acquiring data from a TAL OS digitizer.

The TAlOS digitizers range in size from 11" square to
44" X 60" and provide a means of accurately capturing graphic information through the position of either
a hand-held pen or a tracking "mouse" having a
twelve-button keypad.
The Digitizer Utilities communicate with the TAlOS
digitizer via an asynchronous serial interface.
The Digrtizer Utilities include calls such as:
TABINI - initialize tablet and common area
TABSel - set arbitrary user scale, origin, rotation
angle

To digitize a point:
DIGPTI - Integer digitizer coordinates (e.g., values of
o to 11,000 for an 11" surface)
DIGPTP - Physical inches (cm.) (e.g., values of 0.0 to
11.0 for an 11" surface)
DIGPT - User coordinates (e.g., values of 0.0 to
550.0 ft. when scale set to 1": = 50 ft. for an 11"
surface)
ECHOPT - Echo coordinates of point on user terminal

SPD 15.51.0

Digitize a number from the keyboard

And interactive scaling:
SCAlE2 - User sets scale by digitizing two pOints
SCAlE3 - User sets scale by digitizing three pOints
MINIMUM HARDWARE REQUIRED:
One of the following:
• Any valid RSX-11 M Version 3.1 or later system configuration
• Any valid VAX/VMS Version 1 or later system configuration

Also required:
• 500 blocks of disk space
• 2K bytes to 10K bytes of main memory (depending
on routines used)
• DL11, DZ11, DH11 (EIA version) serial interface
The following hardware is also required, and must be
obtained directly from Talos Corporation:
• One TALOS digitizer (any model) with
1. EIA serial interface option
2. Pen or cursor unit
3. DIGITAl/T AlOS status modification to digitizer
EIA Serial Interface.

To get cursor button, scale:
DIG BTN - Wait for button press
TABGET - Get current user scale, origin, rotation

OPTIONAL HARDWARE:
None

And coordinate system conversions:
TABUI - Convert user to digitizer units
TABUP - Convert user to physical
TABIU .....:.. Convert digitizer to user
TABPU - Convert physical to user
TABPI - Convert physical to digitizer
TABIP - Convert digitizer to physical

PREREQUISITE SOFTWARE:
For RSX-11 M systems:
• RSX-11 M Version 3.1 or later operating system and
one of the following language processors:
1. FORTRAN IVIIAS-RSX, Version 2 or later
2. PDP-11 FORTRAN IV-PLUS, Version 2.5 or later

In addition to the basic calls above the package includes a set of higher level commands for menu definition, calculating lengths and areas, etc.:
MENDEF - Define a rectangular menu subdivided
into menu elements
DIGMEN - Digitize a menu point
lENGTH - Calculate a digitized length
AREA - Calculate a digitized area
DEFKEY - Define a numeric keyboard menu

• VAX-11 FORTRAN IV-PLUS, Version 1 or later
OPTIONAL SOFTWARE:
None
TRAINING CREDITS:

ADDENDUM
SOFTWARE SUPPORT CATEGORIES
Each software product (hereinafter 'SOFTWARE') with a designated Support Category A or B in the applicable Software Product
Description (SPD) existing at the time of order will be the current release at the time of delivery and will conform to the SPD.
DIGITAL's sole obligation shall be to correct defects (nonconformance of the SOFTWARE to the SPD) as described below. Any
SOFTWARE with a designated Support Category C will be furnished on an 'as is' basis.
For SOFTWARE with a designated Support Category A or B, DIGITAL will provide the services set forth below without additional
charge.
CATEGORY A
1. Upon notification by customer to the nearest DIGITAL office that the computer system, including all required prerequisite
hardware and software, is ready for the installation of the SOFTWARE, DIGITAL will, install such SOFTWARE in any location
within the contiguous forty-eight (48) United States, the District of Columbia, or a country in which DIGITAL or a subsidiary
of DIGITAL has a software service facility. The notification must be received by DIGITAL and the system must be ready for
installation within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the SOFTWARE to customer or DIGITAL will have no obligation to
install. Installation will consist of: (1) verification that all components of the SOFTWARE have been received by customer, (2)
loading the SOFTWARE, and (3) executing a DIGITAL sample procedure.
2. During the ninety (90) day period after installation, if the customer encounters a problem with the current unaltered release
of the SOFTWARE which DIGITAL determines to be a defect in the SOFTWARE, DIGITAL will provide the following remedial
service (on site where necessary): (1) if the SOFTWARE is inoperable, apply a temporary correction (TC) or make a
reasonable attempt to develop an emergency by-pass, and (2) assist the customer to prepare a Software Performance
Report (SPR) and submit it to DIGITAL.
3. During the one (1) year period following installation, if the customer encounters a problem with the SOFTWARE which his
diagnosis indicates is caused by a SOFTWARE defect, the customer may submit an SPR to DIGITAL. DIGITAL will respond
to problems reported in SPRs which are caused by defects in the current unaltered release of the SOFTWARE via the
