[comp.sys.ibm.pc] AT Board to control switches

gph@hpsemc.HP.COM (Paul Houtz ) (12/06/88)

     Does anyone know if there is a board I can plug into my AT compatible
  That I can talk to as an input/output device that will sense voltages and
  also send voltages for controlling hardware devices?

     The idea is, I can set up a series of multifunctional switches that
  will turn on lights, sprinklers, sirens, dishwashers, stereos, etc.

     I simply enter the program and have it sample a sensor and then activate
 a device by toggling a switch.   The switches could run 110, or 24v or 
 whatever is appropriate.

     This posting is only part of my investigation.  I would be happy to
 post results if anyone is interested.

     Thanks for your time.
