INFRARED COMMUNICATIONS LINK WITH ATTACHMENT CONFIGURATION

摘要

An infrared connector for establishing a communications link between a processing device (65) having an infrared port (70) an another device (55), including an attachment configuration (45), an infrared interface (40) and a communications cable (75). The infrared interface (40) is mechanically connected to the attachment configuration (45) and the communications cable (75) is connected to the infrared interface (40). The invention also includes a method to operate a system to prevent interference between infrared signals of a processor-input device and a processing device, by time multiplexing the signals of the two systems.
