An electro-optic imaging system includes an aberrated triplet lens, a detector subsystem and a digital image processing subsystem. The machine is operative to output a consumer user interface through a front display device. The lure can be steered by depressing buttons on the radio control transmitter. A proposed illustrative embodiment of the set-up and routine accomplishes both transmit path and receive path calibration. The structured external storage in one atomic operation updates the member’s value, recalculates the aggregate of all of the individual values, and returns the aggregate to the member. A corresponding method of releasably securing a high definition multimedia interface plug to a standard high definition multimedia interface receptacle is also provided.
