Abstract
A computer interface board for electronic automotive vehicle service equipment systems is adapted for installation into a non-dedicated, general purpose computer to serve as the central processor for the automotive service system or as a component of multiple systems, while enabling the computer to be also available for other applications. The interface board provides microprocessors for controlling various data receiving and transmitting functions through multiple ports between the computer and instruments integral to the vehicle service system.
