ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and a related method for interfacing digital device with a communication bus in a local-area computer network. Each device in the network is connected to the bus through a bus interface unit providing the device user with the ability to establish a connection with another device by means of a simple CALL command that does not require the use of physical identifiers. The unit also allows the user to enter a TAlK mode in which a two-way conversation may be conducted over the network without the intervention of a host computer. A REMOTE command allows an unattended device to be controlled from another user site and also permits one user to connect two remotely located devices. A message command allows a message to be stored and held for a remote user, again without the intervention of a host computer.
