ABSTRACT:
Sport simulation equipment, such as a equipment for simulating a game of golf, and made up of a plurality of components, each component adapted to carry out a function of the system in coordination with other components, and a control circuit for directing and coordinating operation of the system components, incorporates a communication system whereby each component may be connected to a transmission line and can send and receive information regarding coordination and operation of components. Each component includes a communication interface circuit which is connected between the component and the transmission line to send and receive information via the transmission line. The control circuit include a similar communication interface means connected to the transmission line. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, communication is initiated by a request in a predefined format addressed to a component to which the component responds in a predefined format. A preferred predefined format consists of one or more fields of eleven bits each which each include eight data bits.
