Abstract: A data communications system for asynchronous communication having at least two data transmit/receive terminals (50) wherein the display (42) is periodically updated with new send or receive data. In the receive mode the data is accumulated in a receive buffer (72) for a predetermined time interval and then transferred into a text storage buffer (80) which then activates a display access method (86) to process the stored data and update the display. The display access method (86) then goes into an "idle" mode and waits for the next transfer of data which does not occur until the predetermined time interval has expired. In the transmit mode the send data is transmitted without a delay but the display is updated after the predetermined time interval has expired.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a communication system wherein a word processing display terminal is transmitting documents to one or more data receiving terminals which also may be word processing terminals. In such communication systems, it is customary to arrange the documents to be transmitted in a sequential queue. The present system has the capability of dynamically altering the queue to either revise documents before their transmission, remove documents, substitute others without affecting or interrupting the transmission. Transmission continues as a background function of the equipment while the operator at the transmitting display terminal has the capability of accessing documents in the queue which have not been transmitted as yet, altering, revising, otherwise changing the queue positions of these documents prior to transmission.
