7.6 ELECTRONIC SKIPLINE: (cont'd. )
The skipline shall be constructed of all solid state digital logic
integrated circuits capable of operating over the voltage range of
10 to 15 volt DC, and shall be protected against automotive level
interference on the power line. For further protection against
electrical and ignition interference, high level (12V) logic shall

A logic level pulsing unit shall be provided and driven by a pneumatic road
wheel , to yield a pulse every 1/10 of a foot (3 cm) without the use of
Vee-belts or variable pitch pulleys. The entire pulse assembly shall be
attached to the vehicle in front of the rear wheels.
A safety chain shall be provided to lock the skipline assembly in the
