`ABSTRACT
`A peripheral data acquisition, monitor, and adaptive
`control system is disclosed in which a personal com(cid:173)
`puter (PC) and one or more input/output (1/0) Bridge
`devices interface signals from electronically-controlled
`devices to the PC via the keyboard port, thus permitting
`data, such as measurement data, to be automatically and
`directly entered into application programs such that the
`PC can take action and control outputs based upon the
`measurement data. A software control program is also
`disclosed which allows the user to configure the system
`for orienting the user as to which devices are being
`controlled, reading digital and analog inputs, making
`decisions based upon the information using specific
`user-defined conditions, and setting digital outputs. The
`system is also adapted to interface with a wireless or AC
`power-line transmission media.
