ABSTRACT:
A data gathering and transmitting system includes a portable data gathering device having a keyboard for entering a line of data of predetermined maximum length, a temporary memory for storing the line of data, means for displaying the temporarily stored data to verify its accuracy, and means for transferring the line of data in the temporary memory to a main memory for storage. The system is also capable of calculating and displaying the total number of lines of data that have been transferred to main memory. The system further includes an interface-formatter which is located at a remote terminal in communication with a computer. After data has been collected, the portable data gathering device is connected to the interface-formatter where the stored data is read out and automatically converted and formatted into a form suitable for direct transmission to a computer.
