ABSTRACT:
A non-random network can connect a common peripheral device to one of a plurality of computers. Each of these computers has a request line for providing a request signal. The network has a plurality of switching devices, each coupled to the common peripheral device and to a corresponding one of the computers. Each of these switching devices is operable in response to a select signal being applied thereto to transfer data between its corresponding one of the computers and the common peripheral device. The network also has a scanner coupled to the plurality of switching devices for operating them in a predetermined order by sequentially applying to them the select signal. This scanner is operable to cease sequencing and to continue applying the select signal to said switching devices to switch a selected one of the computers in response to a persistence of the request signal from the selected one of the computers. After removing the select signal the scanner can restore the select signal to the same one of the switching devices only after each of the other ones of the switching devices has had temporarily applied to it by the scanner the select signal.
