An interface circuit is described for use with a plurality of peripherals or attachments connected in data communication with a central computer. The computer sends data messages, each of which includes the unique addresses of that peripheral to which the particular data message is directed. The peripheral interface contains areas for stripping and then storing addresses from the message received from the computer. If the address matches that of the peripheral, the peripheral acts on the message and responds when necessary to the computer with a message return that includes the address.
