1-2-2 Output Devices
A PC can output to a myriad of devices for use in automated control. Almost any-
thing that you can think of could be controlled (perhaps indirectly) by a PC. Some
of the most common devices are motors, Solenoids, Servomotors, Stepping
Motors, valves, switches, indicator lights, buzzers, and alarms. Some of these
output devices; such as the motors, Solenoids, Servomotors, Stepping Motors,
and valves; affect the controlled system directly. Others; such as the indicator
lights, buzzers, and alarms; provide output to notify personnel.
