DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Manual of Visual Signaling of the U. S. Signal Corps So it may be said that visual signals are either tran sient or permanent - transient when each signal disap pears as soon as made; permanent when the signal remains for a time in view, as when flags are kept hoisted to be read, or a symbol is retained in a certain position. All systems of signals are based upon the principle that having a certain number of elementary signals, each in some way distinguishable from the other, they are made to appear singly or together in all possible arrangements and combinations necessary to form other signals. It may be necessary to know the number of signals that can be made with any given number of available elementary signals where the elementary signal is used only once in each display or where it may be used repeatedly up to the given number of places in the signal which it is desired to display. Under these conditions the possible number of different signals may be determined from the rules for the equation of arrangements.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Manual of Visual Signaling Strictly speaking, a visual signal is any visible sign by which intelligence is communicated, but in a military sense the term visual signaling has a broader meaning and includes other methods of transmitting information than those which appeal to the sense of sight. In most systems of signals suitable for military use, each signal is composed of one or more separate units, known as elements. Having prescribed a certain number of elements, the various signals are formed by having these elements appear singly or together in different arrangements or combinations. The continental system is one of two elements, namely the dot and the dash, while the Morse system employs three elements, the dot, the dash, and the space. Having agreed upon a certain number of combinations of elements, a system of signals is formed by giving a meaning to each combination. These meanings usually include the letters of the alphabet and numerals, combinations of which being used to formulate necessary information. Combinations of elements of any system can also, however, be used to indicate any desired meaning. With reference to period of visibility, signals are of two kinds, transient and permanent. A transient signal is one which disappears as soon as completed; a permanent signal is one that remains in view for some time. Heliograph signals are transient signals, while signals made by code flags are permanent signals. Signals are divided into classes in accordance with the number of elements employed in their formation. Thus, signals using two elements are signals of the second class, signals using three elements signals of the third class, etc. The standard apparatus used in visual signaling is fully described in a succeeding chapter. Some of the instruments employed are used wholly for day, and some wholly for night, signaling. Some devices, either with or without slight variations, are equally well adapted to day or night work. Visual signaling presents a great field for ingenious and resourceful work, and emergency will often demand the advantageous employment of other methods than those described herein.
