Controlling voltage driven hardware?

Post by J. Trench » Wed Jan 31, 2007 9:40 pm

Hi, I am wondering if Revolution could be a fine tool to control external hardware trough software. I am not talking about complex "robotic" stuff, but simple lights and multimedia projectors that can receive orders trough voltage changes, simple intructions like on and off.

Dear Jeremy,

There are IO Warrior and Service USB and probably a bunch of other devices. If you are using a PC, you could connect something to the serial port.
