When signals are to be provided to a particular device, personality data regarding the device enables the particular signal format requirements of the device to be read from the stored information. A signal processor responsive to this information generates output signals in that format. The output signals are transmitted to the device through a switching circuit that is appropriately connected to the device to provide the proper polarity. | |
