SECTION II. PERIPHERAL EQUIPMENT<br />
The computer may be connected to a variety of military or commercial peripheral<br />
equipments. These include:<br />
1) Paper tape reader-punch units.<br />
2) Magnetic tape systems.<br />
3) High speed printer units.<br />
4) Card reader-punch units.<br />
5) Teletype printer units.<br />
6) Display and display interface units.<br />
7) Radars and radar adapter units.<br />
8) Manual entry devices.<br />
To program the communications between the computer and any of these peripheral<br />
equipments, the programmer must be familiar with the functional characteristics<br />
of the peripheral equipment as well as those of the computer. It is impractical<br />
to describe in this document, the functional characteristics of all<br />
possible peripheral equipments which could be connected to the computer. Therefore,<br />
the following subsections describe only those equipments which are most<br />
commonly used with the computer.<br />
