ABSTRACT:
A process and apparatus are provided for controlling a document inserting machine having a plurality of operating stations therein, one of which includes a high speed feeder for feeding documents bearing control function indicia thereon. The process involves detecting the leading edge of the document and generating time signals in accordance with the speed of the document through the feeder. The control function indicia are scanned for generating control function data bits therefrom which are stored and recycled on the occurrence of a first data bit, thereby converting the time measurement to a distance measurement which provides a means for producing accurate distance measurements between the occurrence of a first data bit and subsequent data bits based on the control function indicia on the document. Scanning zones or windows are formed under the control of the distance measurement between the first data bit and subsequent data bits, which windows provide outputs on the occurrence of a data bit occurring in a particular window, which signals may be used to provide control functions for the plurality of operations of the apparatus. One form of apparatus is illustrated for carrying out the aforesaid process.
