Abstract

See full text

An event detector for detecting a plurality of different possible asynchronous events from any of a plurality of source addresses and nodes, debouncing the events and, once a valid event has been identified and confirmed, formatting and transmitting a message via a message transport system to a predetermined destination address for further appropriate action. According to the preferred embodiment, each event is time-stamped so that latency in the message transport system does not affect time-critical events. Thus, the transmitted message identifies the source address, source node, an event number for identifying the event, and a time-stamp associated with the event.
