Abstract
An interface system delivers an output signal having a first signal characteristic in response to first and second input signals having the first signal characteristic and a second, different signal characteristic. The interface system includes a signal input for receiving a first signal having a first signal characteristic and a second signal having a second signal characteristic which is different from the first signal characteristic, a detector circuit for detecting whether the signal at the input is the first signal or the second signal, and a translator circuit for translating either of the first signal or the second signal into the output signal.
Claims21
An interface system for delivering an output signal having a said signal characteristic in response to first and second input signals having said first signal characteristic and a second signal characteristic different from said first signal characteristic, said interface system comprising:
- a signal input for receiving a first signal having a first signal characteristic and a second signal having a second signal characteristic which is different from said first signal characteristic;
- a detector circuit for detecting whether the signal at said input is said first signal o or said second signal;
- and
- a translator circuit for translating either of said first signal or said second signal into said output signal.
An interface method for delivering an output signal having a given signal characteristic in response to first and second input signals having said first signal characteristic and a second, signal characteristic different from said first signal characteristic, said method comprising:
- receiving a first signal having a first signal characteristic and a second signal having a second signal characteristic which is different from said first signal characteristic;
- detecting whether the signal at said input is said first signal or said second signal;
- and
- translating either of said first signal or said second signal into said output signal.
An interface system for delivering an output signal having a given signal characteristic in response to first and second input signals having said first signal characteristic and a second signal characteristic different from said first signal characteristic, said system comprising:
- means for receiving a first signal having a first signal characteristic and a second signal having a second signal characteristic which is different from said first signal characteristic;
- means for detecting whether the signal at said input is said first signal or said second signal;
- and
- means for translating either of said first signal or said second signal into said output signal.
