DEFINITION

Classification: 315/169.2

Including shifting of register, counter, or display:

(under subclass 169.1) Subject matter in which the effect of the energizing currents is to make the discharge path in the discharge device move from one position to a next position.

(1) Note. Such discharge path movement or shifting may be a subcombination of pulse input into a register, and added count in a counter, or the input of display array control signals into a gas panel display. Caveat: Where "writing", "erasing", data responsive, or other selective structure or function is recited, such a claim to the combination of display panel and selective control is classified in Class 345.
