A PC can be used to send controlling information to other electrically controlled devices such as the curtains or a model railway. Of necessity the PC has to receive commands as to what is to be done and/or sense, for example, daylight or confirmation of model trains' movements. All this controlling and much more can be done through the three ports (plugs and sockets) in this book's title using the guidance provided. Detail is provided down to RS Components' part numbers and pieces of program but a knowledge of electronics is required to exploit the possibilities.
