Talk:Baudot code
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
From the article:
- "Code points 0D, 14 and 1A are not used in telex communication."
So how did they represent F, G and H? -- The Anome 17:42, Jun 5, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Hard copy of code missing.
I think that the paper tape storage using Baudot should be metioned also. Messages/programs can be stored in Baudot on paper/mylar tape. This is done with a machine that punches and reads punched tape. See http://chem.ch.huji.ac.il/~eugeniik/history/baudot.html for an example. Also see "Punched tape" in wikipedia.
[edit] Wrong Donald Murray?
From the Article:
- "Around 1901 Baudot's code was modified by Donald Murray by re-ordering the characters..."
When I followed the link on the name, I was presented with a article about someone who was born January 24, 1923. Either someone has one (or more) of the dates mixed up, or the link is to a different person with a similar (same?) name.
On the gripping hand, Time travel might be in play here, but if so, please site sources. :-)
- This shows the problem of creating a red link and not immediately filling in with a stub. Someone comes later and creates an article with an unintended subject for the original link. I've removed the linking and added dates. The birth year is given various as 1865 or 1866. JonHarder 00:31, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tranmission of Data
How did the transmitter and receiver work? Were the 5 bits transmitted using 2 different voltages or 2 different frequencies? How did the receiver know when a sequence started and how did it differentiate successive bits that are the same (timing perhaps)?
