Exercise 2.4 - Communicating with USB, LAN, and RS-232
This exercise will show you how to integrate your equipment with USB
and LAN connections. Advantages of USB are: it is easy to connect and
disconnect, requires no extra card, and cables are available at a modest
price, and allows high-speed data transfer. However, LAN is not always
easy to configure or control but it allows access to the World Wide Web.
