`
`ABSTRACT
`
`A system for allowing an application program to commu-
`nicate with any one of a group of supported hardware
`devices comprising a software system operating on at least
`one workstation and a network communications protocol.
`The software system includes a control command generating
`module for generating control commands based on compo-
`nent functions of an application program, component code
`associated with the component functions, and the driver
`code associated with software drivers associated with the
`
`hardware devices. The network communication protocol
`allows the control commands to be communicated from the
`
`control command generating module to at least one of the
`supported hardware devices over the network.
