Abstract
An electronic counting system having a directional discriminator for accepting input signals representative of the count, a reversible up-down counter responsive to the directional discriminator for performing the counting function, a numerical display for displaying the value of the present count, and logic apparatus for the calculation and display of values for manual input to the up-down counter. The entry logic apparatus includes a keyboard for the manual entry of numerical data and function commands, a computer-calculator element for processing the numerical entry display for displaying the numerical data entered into the keyboard and the function results. A transfer switch applies the numerical data of the entry display to the up-down counter for setting the counter to the entry display value.
