Abstract

A system is provided for dispatching one or more packets of information selected from the group consisting of redeemable coupons, messages, appointment reminders, confirmations, tickets, warnings and written packets to potential recipients of said packets at a remote location. The steps included in such a system are: (1) developing a subscriber directory containing unique identification for each of said potential recipients; (2) creating a packet to be dispatched to at least one of said recipients; (3) identifying the potential recipients for a particular packet; (4) transmitting said packet through a pager network to all of said potential recipients; and (5) receiving and selectively processing and printing only those packets intended to be processed and printed by said appliance. A printer appliance is provided for use in receiving and printing packets of information transmitted by wireless means. The appliance includes means for receiving said packets of information; means for analyzing said packets to determine whether said packets are intended to be processed and printed by said appliance; and means for printing said packets of information. A secure system is also provided for generating and distributing over the Internet packets of information, including redeemable coupons and/or rebate forms to individuals who select such offers. The system includes means for displaying on an Internet web site a list of the available coupons. The consumer may then visit or log onto the web site, view the list of available coupons and make their selection. In a first embodiment of the invention, the selected coupons are transmitted to the consumer either through a pager network that interacts with a receiver/printer in the home or, alternatively, through the individual's computer equipped with a customized printer for printing hard copies of said coupons incorporating certain anti-fraud features. In an alternative embodiment, coupons are displayed on an Internet web site and selected from such site by the individual consumer. Rather than transmitting the coupon, a validation code or codes are transmitted to a validator, likely contained in a retail establishment, which can then generate a coupon either in printed form or electronically. The transmission is either directly through the individual consumers' computer or, alternatively, through a pager network that broadcasts directly to the validator. The system includes a means for creating said packets of information in a digital format and a means for transmitting said packets of information to said locations via either the wireless network or global computer network. A network of receivers is provided at select locations, each of the receivers being adapted to selectively receive, process and store the transmitted packets of information and download said packets of information onto a programmable media. In the preferred embodiment, the programmable media consists of an electronic smart card. The system may also generate a printed and or electronic list of all packets of information, as well as print individual packets of information.

Invention Description (2) Anti-fraud measures are maintained on the system to provide consumers with comfort and privacy in homes, offices, or anywhere with Internet access Densely select the most promising supply. Alternatively, the coupon can be completely electronically passed directly to the check-out register of the “memory wakeup device” provided by the consumer to remind the consumer to exchange the checked coupon. This method provides a highly secure electronic exchange process, after which no more exchangeable coupons are written. When hard copy output of coupons is required, the system considers using a dedicated secure printer or patent application number 09 / 095,820 filed on June 11, 1998 under the names of Robert T. Kulakowski, Robert Marshall, and George J. Rogers. The printer types described in detail in the name `` Printer Appliance for Use in a Wireless System for Broadcasting Packets of Information 丨 丨 '' are listed here for reference only. As expected, a different output format and media can radically change the way it is used, and the features of the new invention can be added to the entire distribution system. This disclosure describes how a smart card reader / writer, the addition of original software routines, and the integration of links to Internet channels add significant variations to the overall system efficiency. This smart card is a natural extension of the familiar magnetic stripe storage system used by credit cards. However, the smart card has a board chip with processing and high-density storage capabilities. The traditional credit card can carry up to about 100 static characters, however, the simplest smart card can be light and easily hold 1,000 characters. Moreover, the smart card operates in a dynamic read and write mode, so real transaction processing can be performed correctly on or from the interface card. Probably, the most commonly used smart card in the United States is the GTE smart phone card product (please read the precautions on the back page on this page).

The initial $ 50 credit is recorded on the smart card. 〇GTE has added a smart card reader to the selected phone booth, and when calling, the interface card can automatically calculate the time change and adjust the balance. Major manufacturers such as Motorola, Phillips, and Hewlett Packard produce smart card chip components based on general products. As technology advances, new and improved versions will continue to be released. Acorn, Gemcon, and Schlumberger are original equipment manufacturers. They integrated the chips into microelectronic components and transferred them to a plastic substrate so that the finished product had a shape similar to a general credit card. Smart cards used in the United States have clearly lagged behind other countries. For example, Astral in Australia has an advanced calling card system and offers Coca-Cola to use a card system on their vending machines. There are many major applications in Europe, ranging from the use of smart ID tags by British military service units to the use of Blaupunkt, a German auto stereo system supplier using a card to maintain personal radio station selection, and end use to readjust your car after borrowing it Stereo system. According to recent literature from Shepherd & Wedderburn, smart card technology enhancements are moving towards the realization of a substantial electronic wallet. The traditional wallet often contains checks, credit cards, coins, and banknotes. In the United States, it often also contains manufacturer discount coupons, of which nearly 5 billion: the raise is exchanged annually. Obviously, private 71% discount coupons are also suitable for this virtual wallet. 2.

Individuals often receive printed messages from a variety of sources, including such things as mail, delivery services, door-to-door delivery staff, spearhead foreign service &, print media, and more. Distribute and pass this row of information, ’,. The traditional method of individual courts is severely restricted by the need to manually process and deliver printed documents. When these delivery tools are able to handle a large number of messages per day, from the perspective of cost and delivery time, the need to manually deliver such information will cause a beating on the system. Telex video systems for transmitting and transmitting messages have rapidly improved over the past decade. For example, communication systems have become a common method of distributing printed messages and other communications. The speed and cost of this transmission system are quite advantageous when compared with the traditional methods described above. However, transmission is strictly subject to reach and, in general, is not suitable for mass broadcast messages. The demands and utility of such transmissions are also limited by the need for telephone line connections and fees to some extent. Recently, the 'Internet has become very influential in sending print messages. However, as with all other forms of delivery systems, there is a need for accessibility, telephone lines, and the need for a computer and operating software and auxiliary and auxiliary systems. Moreover, the message receiver must have a certain degree of computer read and write capabilities, and more importantly, if it is to receive these printed messages, the user must assume a major role. Over the past few years, manufacturers have been eager to find new ways to distribute our coupons. One such new method was developed by Catalina Marketing, which issues printed coupons on the checkout route of a retail store. This distribution method has been widely accepted, although coupons are used in the next lecture.

Description of Invention (5) Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. The goal here is to be precise, so that it is based on the supply choices that most appeal to their consumers. Since there is no classification and no limit on the number of customers available at the POS, the allocation is much smaller than the FSI. However, even though these coupons are explicitly required and * are widely distributed, the reduced number is offset by a significantly higher exchange rate. The Catalina Marketing system uses coupon printers installed on the checkout path of nearly 12,000 retail stores across the country. The use of the Internet for coupon distribution has received substantially significant amounts in recent years, however, this system has been severely hindered by severe fraud. Illegal copying of coupons has continued, and traditional coupon media is a relatively controllable phenomenon. Thanks to one of the coupon images assigned via the Internet, magnetic disk or CD-ROM, it can be quickly entered into a simple distribution software package, where changes such as face masks, changes in supply items, expiration dates, etc. can be arbitrarily achieved. More importantly, there is no limit to the number of copies that can be made. If printing a black and white coupon on standard paper stock using a traditional computer printer is considered acceptable, individual business entities can easily and completely create and regenerate fraudulent Internet coupons. Despite these limitations, Internet distribution will continue to grow in popularity due to its good communication speed, low cost, ability to accurately target enthusiasts, and features that make it easy for consumers to choose. However, the adoption of this distribution method has shown that it is unable to provide secure printing supply and control over the quality of scanned barcodes. The supermarket online uses a system called Web Bucks (Web Bucks) to deploy a more secure Internet on the Internet called the Jiao Homepage.

Although the system uses a broadcast transmission method, block filters, filters, and warriors allow the system to send a special packet to an individual device or to a printer owned or owned by a user, and between them. . A component of the system is a highly efficient and updatable user database, such as a relational database provided by Oracle or Informix, which contains detailed book catalogs, demographics, and other unique user information. For example, this information can be obtained from device purchase registrations, supplier purchases, Bao Yin activities, user overview and response information, and from other sources. This information can be further supplemented with information from a wide range of external sources, such as mailing list vendors, catalog marketers, and miscellaneous publishers, such as demographics, support, lifestyle, family structure, interests, and more. The many variations of this database in combination with zone filters are based on definable receivers and often do not allow precise information locking. The strong advantage of the planning system is that the printers used in conjunction with this message are typically printers that require maintenance. With this device, the receiver does not have to assume a major role in message processing. Since the initial settings and subsequent operations are simple and straightforward ', even minimal technical or computer reading and writing capabilities are not required. As long as the device has power and paper, printed messages are automatically received. It is generally imagined that most of the information can be transmitted at night to take advantage of the lower communication network on the caller network. Therefore, the combination of one and one printer requires minimal maintenance, and attention is extremely important.

However, the serious obstacle is that the Yuyin Ica has tasted in the Internet, 'Ci Lu rumors have a marriage — so — as described in this document, the home version of ⑽pma & 可 can receive or For wire transmission or as a personal computer connected to them via the port. Coupons can be black and white, have no controlled security measures, can be easily copied, and have quality problems for in-store transactions and mail exchange scanning capabilities. Moreover, coupon images can be ported to an editing system that can easily change supply items and conditions, especially prices. The present invention is a strong anti-fraud measure developed by two related systems developed from Coupon Direct technology and is used to provide Internet coupons. The method of the eighteenth embodiment is based on the general Internet contacting the user of the personal computer, but the delivery of the actual coupon is processed through the general 叩 ⑽Direct. Obviously, only users who have access to Coupon Direct printers can participate. Multiple security features are incorporated into the controlled paper stock designed for use with the device. A second related method is to use an order confirmer placed anywhere in the community; for example, in a shopping mall, gas station, bank, etc. However, for maximum consumer convenience, the best location is to prove in a retail store . It is essentially an upgraded CoUp011 Direct unit with high monthly force and industrial-grade efficiency. A centralized CoUpOn Direct PMA, or printer device, or receiver printer distribution, device (RPD) can be accessed by all customers in the store. Here, the consumer contacts the website (and vice versa) and selects the supply of interest. The response from the website is just a coupon confirmation number 'and it is not printed on the coupon.

In addition to being able to take advantage of coupons from the Internet that they currently purchase (not the supermarket online / WebBucks system for the next purchase), this process retains the anti-fraud measures inherent in Coupon Direct and confirms in-store transactions with additional Increased safety. Alternatively, the coupon may be a memory wake-up provided by the electronics and consumer (for example, a shopping list containing the selected supply), which displays the available discounts registered with her valid coupon. Since handwritten vouchers are no longer issued, this method facilitates a highly secure electronic bill exchange process. An in-store transaction confirmer that can be linked or interfaced with other communication devices, such as an ATM (" ATM "), a coin counter / rotator, or any other electronic in-store transaction device. A potential user base could be this The idea is broad because the printer at home is no longer an element. The order confirmation number can be easily written by hand, and the coupon selection information is accessed first (ie, home, office, etc.) to log in to the in-store transaction device later. In this way, laptop users, handheld computers, and office personal computers that are not accessible to the printer have now become an accessible coupon selection channel. The network of receivers is available at select locations Each of these receivers may be adapted to selectively receive, process, and store information transmission packets, and download the information packets to a programmable media. In a specific embodiment, the controllable media is composed of An electronic smart card. The system can also generate a print and / or electronic list of all information packets, as well as individual packets of printed information. -20- 格 〇X 297 Public hair • Irk— — — — — — — — — — — — I I (Please read the notes on the back page first) Order: • Line · B7

Description of Invention (21) Connect the software module maintained on the computer system. This computer system can be a microcomputer to a host. The software capabilities of some modules can be incorporated into any device. The user directory 1G is a database and maintains a record of all system users, that is, these individuals or entities can receive information through the printer 80. The user directory 10 can be maintained by traditional database programs, such as Oiade, dBase, Paradox. When using a pure file database program, a relational database such as the one described above is ideal.忒 The user directory 10 maintains the serial numbers of all printers 80 sold on the market. The serial number of these devices is very important because it is considered to be a message destination code or address used to direct the message. With the database manager 40, this serial number can be linked to detailed household information, including geographic address and user profile data. The device serial number is always printed on all messages passed. If a message is also used as a discount coupon or other voucher, the issuer's confirmation can be identified at the time of redemption. This would, for example, make it possible for a promotional sponsor to follow the event and obtain response information contained in the database. A printer owner may choose to deny the use of any personal information based on privacy. Other materials that can be maintained by the user directory 10 include book directories, geography, demographics, family information, trademark preferences, hobbies, spending habits, minor illnesses, and other individual characteristics. A sample table describing this user directory is displayed in Yong 2 including, for example, information related to user name, address, geographic area, family composition, type of residence, income, interests, and use of the trademark. Of course, any type of information that is essentially relevant to the user can be maintained for a particular application. Therefore, Example -24-

Description of the invention (22) If ‘if the user directory is to be used with the appointment reminder, the information about the user ’s medical record number, appointment history, and insurance information can be maintained. The information contained in the children's user directory 10 can be output in a printed form similar to a normal telephone directory and used by the sender in compiling their message list. For example, a hard-copy directory can be used in the office of a medical practitioner preparing a message list to alert patients who are about to see a doctor. Large-scale users, such as utility companies, may allow secure direct access to directories or be provided in the form of tapes, disks, or ROMs to assign serial addresses to their invoices. The user directory 10 potentially has a high commercial content, because consumer information content can be rented to and from manufacturers, direct mail, or telephone marketers, each publishing privacy policy, and in accordance with regulatory regulations and use, if needed Share the appropriate notification of the person. The data contained in the user's directory 10 is maintained in the preferred embodiment in the format of bit_, which can help to classify this data, and then the data is compared with the data in the printer 82 during broadcasting. And so on. Possible bit_group samples are included in Figure 3, where the plural number is assigned to a particular stop and data. For example, bits between 00 and 100 can be assigned to geography and the zip code of the user; bit 13 can be assigned to the family composition information; bits between 13> 16 can be assigned to Type of residence; 纟 161. Bits can be assigned to household income, and m-20 and above 200 can be assigned to trademark use, etc. Although this number can be increased or decreased if needed, it is expected that up to 1,000 bits can be used. -25- This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) Al specification (210 297 mm) a »... ·· VK.

W's daily message base handles this effort for the day. Figure 5 depicts the method of sampling a whole batch of messages for processing on a special day. The children's messages are initially sorted by the field to be delivered, and then by priority order. Therefore, all emergency messages (for example, priority) will be delivered before non-emergency messages (for example, priority calls). For example, priority messages will be transmitted in the order that the system initially receives them. The bits of the sequence are identified in the destination criteria identified in the message base. For example, FIG. 6 describes the previously discussed bit string procedure in relation to the = group 10 of the group message. Note that it is particularly important to use The bit string procedure previously discussed can be quickly and explicitly targeted to individuals of groups or groups. For example, the coupon can be derived by identifying the application bit rate of the targeted group.

Description of the invention (25) Divide the daily batch into numbers and &lt; for batches to optimize loading of different modems 'And give these coupons avoidance in these embryos. Ding She first pushed to ensure that the information in several batches can be arranged according to the urgency of the transmission needs. For example, an important priority = to ensure that earlier time-domain messages can be stored earlier in the propagation process first. Fig. 7 is a simple format in which a group of messages to be transmitted will be cascaded, and Fig. 8 provides some examples of data included in this table. Note that the messages are ordered by priority and then by message number (msn). The destination code string indicates whether the printer receives data based on individual pMA numbers or bit 7G string codes. For example, if the message is to be processed by a special PMA, the identification number of the targeted PMA or pMA is indicated. In this way 'the destination code string would be, 〇 &quot;. Note that one or more PMA identification numbers are available. However, when the message is to be processed by the &quot; group, and the user processes it based on the criteria identified in the bit_code, the destination code string will read &quot; or &quot; 2 &quot;, which determines whether the message is "Public" or "Private". If it is the public, yes, if it is a non-secure message, the destination code will be &quot; "and a bit code string is provided. So 'if the message is to be processed by a special group of users, this The bit string of the group is identified in the bit_code. The system of the present invention is capable of transmitting a private security message to be printed on the printer, which includes a "private" key. Here, the destination code The string will read "2", and the printer's unique PMA number and a private key number will be transmitted as part of the destination PMA code. The transmission sequence compiler 50 is a unique message identification number ( &quot; MIN1 ·) is assigned to each message that will be audited and tracked later.

The designation of this MIN allows the system to automatically track the transmission of every message sent to the system. To further assist in the pursuit of production efficiency, capacity analysis and quality control are measured. The bank of the modem 60 is the main channel for telex communication of messages to the pager network 70. Traditional commercial modems such as those provided by Robotics, Hayes, or other traditional modems can be used. Everyday the modem also quickly improved to the current standard transmission rate of at least 56 KB. As the system grows, the database of the modem can be replaced by a dedicated τν cable. The batch of messages from the sequence compiler 50 can be teleported from the message bank to the wireless pager network 70 through the interconnection between the general modems. This communication is buffered on the front end of the network and broadcast when routing is allowed. They can be maintained by the network in buffer storage and then transmitted in bulk with other messages or interleaved between other messages. This allows for more efficient and convenient transmission, and at a lower cost than during peak transmission. In some applications, a dedicated routing monitor, information storage and retrieval module need to be installed between the modem 60 library and the wireless pager network 70. This utility is to effectively combine a large number of #long print messages with general caller transmission activities. The main providers of pager networks are PageNet, skyTd, Comcast and others. In addition to the previous, for example, there are many regional calls

Description of the invention (32) The mother-batch batches printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs will transfer these mother-day batches on the day before the expiration date and a few hours before, to make use of the non-busy green The situation of the low network during the period. The only feature of the system of the present invention is the security features of the system, which are intended to prevent fraud and forgery. When some messages contain only messages, such as coupons or other coupons with a defined amount of money, and can be used for bullying that cannot be copied. This system uses at least 5 reproduction suppression technologies: (1) chemically treated paper; (2) color printing at the edges; (3) reverse-side printing; (4) combining high-resolution patterns; and (5) serial number printing. In this regard, the printer 82 may use a special coated hot paper having a manufacturing identification so that the source of the paper can be confirmed. Similarly, pre-printed color edges can be used on paper, and a color reproduction device is needed for reproduction. Special imprints can also be printed on the reverse side of the paper, which is automatically sensed using an optoelectronic device, which not only helps warn recipients that the device is out of paper or paper jams, but can also be seen as deterring the use of illegal copies. Other deterrents that can be used to avoid counterfeiting include incorporating a high-resolution pattern on the reverse side of the paper. Therefore, reproduction can only be complicated with expensive duplication equipment. Finally, since the statement is confirmed, the printer 82 can print a serial number on each output message, which, in addition to providing a unique trace of the origin, can further deter the use of counterfeiting. In the event of even suspecting any duplication, a serial number deletion message can be transmitted, like turning off a special printer immediately. Alternatively, the message of the 'special printer' can be removed by the system control center 20, or by a flag or a stop set in the user directory 10 or even in the database manager 40. -35- This paper size is in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back page on this page first) The operation of the message transmission system of the present invention is described below. The user-one item at a time, one record-1-0-is a package including one-provides one use ten-most-there is an If factory and a net "community one"- Information-Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. As mentioned earlier, this user directory 10 includes all available book catalogs, demographics, and user characteristics. It also contains information such as phone numbers, Health insurance numbers, social security numbers, and other unique numbers that help coordinate a PMA serial number with a particular individual or group of people. It is expected that messages in the user directory 10 will be added or deleted from new members and changed with special members. Relevant information is updated based on this information. This information can be entered manually or electronically. Note the allocation, it is wise to assign bit_ to the data contained by a particular user. In this way, the message is sent only by Or many special devices or broadcast processing by these devices that conform to the characteristics of the message standard. When determining the potential receiver of a special message, the use of bit strings can substantially reduce the amount of data required for system processing. At the same time, the transmission The message will be entered into the message base 30 with special information related to the message and delivery instructions, such as the recipient, priority, time and date of the delivery. Once the appropriate message or some messages are registered in the message base 3 () and the user is The information is logged into the user directory 10, the system control center 20 and the database manager 40 will then check all the messages stored in the message database 30 and separate them based on the date they are passed on. These messages will be identified and separated. A sample batch of a typical message transmitted on a particular date is depicted in Figure 5. The database manager 40 will then use the paper size application previously identified in Figure 6 囵National Standard (CNS) A4 Specification (2) 0 X 297 male) (Please read the precautions on the back page first) Installation • Cable 478263 A7 V. Invention The (34) standard specifies the code of the data bit entry included in the message batch. If it is instructed to format, the message can then be loaded with detailed text and pictures _ l ~-(Please read the note on the back first Matters on this page) format.-What you generally want to consider is that the database manager 40 will include a large number of stored, fancy painting examples, such as *, previous coupons I, invoice and appointment reminder design, trademarks , Simple product maps, clip art, and a wide range of fonts. The database manager 40 also incorporates-an exclusive publisher module, which has access to template files and the general capabilities of semi-automatic printed message design. The publisher Modules help generate publisher quality and include standard trademarks, clip art, and photos included in messages. In this way, the message can simply be viewed as a trademark or artwork included in the publisher's module, and then replace the artwork or photo stored in the message. In the case of manufacturer discount coupons, industry guidelines require the use of coupon stripe codes in a standard UPC coupon code format, which allows riders to automatically scan coupons at the payment counter registration. Basic code information ^ Do not issue the manufacturer, use the group serial code to categorize the product type, and indicate excellent .line-pending coupons. An appendix has recently been used in the UPC / E format, which can carry additional information such as supply number, expiration date, and family identification. The publisher of the Intellectual Property Office of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Consumer Cooperatives includes printers that can automatically generate barcode numbers and insert them into the coupon system. . Before being released for dissemination, 'these message images need some manual editing' in order to optimize the representation of the video art. Since this compiler 50 will then compile all applicable messages for a particular date, then in order of priority, then broadcast them for preparation. For example, in a special message such as a message reminder to be sent to a single

When the message is to be delivered to a group of receivers, the database manager 40 will search the database, from A user directory that meets the special round criteria 10 obtains the user, and then obtains the serial number of the appropriate device from the user directory for transmission to this device. Especially when the advocate or advertising sender wants to send messages to many of her special registers The situation of the receiver is also possible. This requires the database manager 40 to overlap the customer register with the user directory 10 and obtain the serial number of the general login. Similarly, in the case where the message is transmitted to a group of users, the above bits The serial number will be the part of the transmission message. The final processing of the daily batch prepared for transmission requires the transmission sequence compiler 50 in the figure to pass the emergency decision The priority sequence arranges the message strings continuously. Some messages must be transmitted every other day, while others must be transmitted without difficulty the next day. This is helpful if the system is inhibited or slowed by high network routing. Every The daily batch will be actually subdivided before the sequence. The smaller batches can be distributed among many modems and messages and transmitted to the pager network 70 at the same time. The message can then be transmitted by normal calling at 929-932 MHz. And other general call messages are broadcast by the pager wireless pager network 70.

The mother special device has at least four layers of passwords, namely: (1) the predetermined device serial number (receive all &quot; 9, s ", and process the national message); (2 ) Special device serial number (referring to the unique number given to each individual device); (3) the number of applicable codes for the bit string (derived from the user profile); and ⑷ personal PIN bluff defined by the user (for height Processing of security messages). Each message has one or more of the above number of codes. 4. RAM memory 87A is required for CPU 87 to perform tasks such as system management, message processing, destination code ratio #, and bar code generation. And other multiplexing. EPROM87C stores safety information, especially the device serial number. Information about user characteristics is stored in write-only memory 87b to protect against loss in the event of power failure. Figure 12 describes the important message that the CPU of the area printer 82 must execute. W mm To decide—whether the message is addressed to—the special printer: 2 &quot;;: _CHJ asks for the destination code header. If the destination code string is 0, the message can only be processed by a special printer or device, and then it determines whether there is a ship to the device. If so, the message will be processed. If it does not match, the processing sound is aborted. Similarly, if the destination code is &quot; 1 &quot;, it indicates that there is only a `` special bit string outfitted for processing, etc. message '' and it will then compare the bit strings of the device's bit string patch information.

Description of the invention (37) The message will then be processed. If not, the process is aborted. Finally, if the destination code string is "2", which means that the message is to be sent to a special device or a device with a private key, then the number of pMA of the message is expected to match the number of PMA of the device. Standards used in RSA and pGp Encryption technology uses a public / private key encryption. PMA's deduction method can decrypt the message, process the decrypted message, and print it. It is only decrypted by the PMA using the private key. If it matches, it The second function is then performed by trying to match the individual PIN number of the device to the number of piNs to be transmitted. If the two match, the message is processed. If not, the process is aborted. Figures 13 and 14 are described in A special sampled bit string comparison between the destination bit string included in the broadcast message and the applicable bit_code number contained in the device. Note that the destination bit included in the message and the device's There must be an exact match between the bit strings. In some cases, it may allow the device to process the message 'only one predetermined percentage of the bit_matches, for example at least 25%.

In this case, a memory wake-up print, such as a shopping list combined with the supplied products will be presented to the customer. This print is essentially a condensed version of the selection list shown in Figure 27. Of course, this list only supplies confirmed and issued supplies. This list is constructed in the order confirmer by combining a properly selected confirmation code. Please read the notes on the back-I I. This page: Order.-Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs -49 478263 A7 V. Description of the invention (47 Then, consumers can manually redeem via paper coupons Or use a simple system of electronic supply to purchase inventory and receive discounts on eligible purchases at the payment counter channel. As another method, consumers can use Our home computer receives the order confirmation codes, carries these codes to a retail store, enters the order confirmation codes into a login button terminal 250, and the login button terminal is connected to the order confirmer 282, and then in substantially the same way as above Processing coupon requirements. Figure 30 depicts the operation of the in-store transaction order confirmer 282. Many components of the multi-year confirmer 282 are functionally similar to the general coupon device 82. However, an important enhancement is the need to accommodate a large increase in requirements. For example, the multi-tap power supply 283 is used to provide the necessary voltage and amperage to drive the printer motor, thermal head and signal levels, and chip components. Similarly, the microprocessor 284 must have approximately similar or Beyond the performance characteristics of the Intel 386 chip. The child pager receiver 290 performs a normal type coupon function, but can be upgraded to a digit, receiving and transmitting a module currently commonly used in the pager world. This results in greater system changes, especially with far-end interrogation capabilities. The status of the order confirmer can be arbitrarily checked. Remote maintenance is available 'and supply allocation details can be retrieved directly from each individual order validator. This upgrade is fully feasible, as cost constraints are less restrictive in this application than in the case of Coupon DirectPMA 82. A simple calculator-like number key 250 provides large enough keys to be easily logged in. The keypad 250 must also have industrial-grade operating characteristics. The multi-press keyboard 250 may allow simultaneous access by several consumers. I --- · 11 (Please read the notes on the back to write this page) · Line.

Description of the invention (48) Replaces faster inkjet or laser printers, but will provide a general thermal printer 286. A display 287 is used for operator response. In this regard, a small CRT used in conjunction with an ATM machine may be suitable 'but other options such as LCD or LED arrangements are also considered. A memory array 288 will provide and contain about q megabytes of RAM and auxiliary storage devices in the range of 20-50 megabytes. This allows for partial preservation of coupon templates and large inventory of fonts. This level of storage capacity should also be suitable for processing barcodes, remote maintenance operations, and data uploads. The purchase confirmer 282 further includes a modem 289 for communication, which is required to operate in an electronic coupon mode. The modem 289 can dial and enable in-store transaction computers to upload valid coupon information. A validator 282 of the traditional 56 kbytes should be more suitable. Stacking the Coupon Direct pager network is the preferred form of coupon and confirmation code distribution. Other communication methods can be used, including radio, hardware wiring, fiber optics, and infrared. It has been discovered that when the order confirmation of the in-store transaction system is connected to an ATM machine, certain advantages are provided. The order confirmer 282 can be connected to this ATM machine, or even integrated into these machines. This knot offers many advantages for the convenience of the customer. The important characteristics of these two methods are outlined in Figure 31. The coupons used by Super Online Web Bucks are used as a baseline for reference purposes. Although complex and expensive, it is in a fully open area to add some security. With the extension of the problem, all methods require special devices and attachments (please read the precautions on the back before this page).

Since printers using virtually any paper can be used, the Web Bueks system has no control at home. The usual supply coupons, which are normally the same—can look fundamentally different in different sizes, paper trunk, ink type, personality resolution, etc. This will definitely be interpreted at the checkout counter as a coupon, making it necessary to explain the terms more than the car must be paid. In combination, the variety of printer types, resolutions, inks, and trunks can be relatively low in bar code quality, and the results can further increase non-scanning problems created at the payment counter. The Coupon Direct linking system completely solves the above problems. Although the potential user must have access to the unit, the actual computer used may be an office machine or even a laptop. -Coupons can be selected at the office or on the road and transmitted to home devices. Similar considerations apply to in-store transaction confirmer systems with printers

With the retailer platform, these issues have been explained above. The Catalina system interfaces with the store operating system and monitors every purchase at each payment counter channel. Some retailer systems can hardly interact with Existing register function competition, and the added Web Bucks function may be difficult. The Coupon Direct link system does not require a retailer platform, and the production is concise for the retailer. The in-store transaction device needs to be adopted aggressively for that performance Validator system, but it does not interfere with the store system. Response cost is an important consideration.

In addition, each packet (each call length) can significantly reduce the order confirmer method. Finally, the repeatability of the call ensures reduced reception. When considering the Coupon Direct link system, the issue of store contact costs does not exist. The WebBucks system is an enhancement activity on the Catalina Internet, which is more economical in cost. Since the pager network is used, the in-store X-Easy Order Confirmer system has low contact costs. The contact cost and advantages are similar to those of the Web Bucks system pager, which is used to catch and broadcast the broadcast device. It allows the contact of many units with normal messages. Telephone contact is inevitably number and sequence processing. Therefore, the order confirmation is more simple than the Web Bueks system. The contact cycle is also relatively simple, since it does not require reprocessing during the issue and subsequent redemption of WebBucks. The problem with electronic settlement is that the store order confirmer system has a settlement advantage because it can be easily converted into a pure electronic coupon that can be destroyed when it is registered ^ ", and next, the raw money transaction is more complicated. Although the coupon is in The die-casting register of the register, the accounting procedures in maintaining individual customers' credit accounts and the balanced earning / exchange activities can be quite complicated.

The invention (54) of the calculator developed between printers, or integrated into the printer. A personal computer interface can be added to the device 12 so that any available printer can be refreshed or printed on the monitor. Smart card reader / writer bits may also be added to general coupon Direct device 120 or integrated components, or peripheral devices. Of the above options, one of the more effective communication modes is a print list, which can be used by regular consumers to move to a store as a memory refresher or use / complete a shopping list. When the smart card promotion is transmitted, a summary of the contents, the type of message shown in Fig. 35 can be given to the user. This is close to adding a large variety of changes to the system, since the parallel distribution of printed paper coupons and similar versions of their electronic smart cards can occur simultaneously. Since the two types of devices dissipate the coupon base, the transmission can only be in the traditional paper form, and the smart card can only be formed, or both. Increasing the difference bits of the promotion object code can alert what format is included in each allocation. ^ Figure 36 depicts promotional distributions delivered in paper, electronic, or both.

It is not always easy to benefit— (please read the precautions on the back first, then this page). Paper coupons are still very attractive for countries with no retailer restrictions. However, smart cards only offer special retailers that will be redeemable on device smart card readers. A smart card reader 142 also forms an interface with the device 134. This interface is also physically integrated in the device 134, or connected to a non-continuous unit by hardware wiring only. The smart card supply writes normally to the card docked at the reader. Twin cards will be needed so when the main card is in use, the new supply can write down on shopping. The main smart card system designed for e-commerce and many security measures is a combination of write routines. These measures, together with necessary retail rereads, have resulted in highly fraud-protected electronic coupons. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Figure 37 describes the coupon distribution system integrated with the general computer network. The main integrated component in this system is the shared smart card reader-writer 15. Furthermore, this may be a stand-alone unit or component integrated into the cPon Direct device 152. As a display, the system allows the provision of a common computer network's supply, such as the Internet, to a smart card 54 and a list of the supplies 156 to print away from the consumer's personal computer printer 1 58. As such, the Coupon Direct supply can be written to a smart card 160 and an equivalent, print-supply item Green 162 device 152 is produced. Of course, the distribution of each of these systems is done in a different way: for a general-purpose computer network, the supply is distributed through an online coupon dealer 164, and the above-mentioned coupon direct distributor 166 and the snore network 168 Use the system to distribute supplies to Coupon Direct devices -58.
