Abstract:
1. An interface system for delivering an output signal in response to receiving a first input signal, said interface system comprising: an interface that connects to a medical device; a signal input for receiving a first input signal from the medical device via said interface, said first input signal having a marking voltage characteristic; a detector circuit configured to receive said first input signal, said detector circuit including a rectifier-capacitor circuit or a resistor-capacitor circuit, said detector circuit determining, with said rectifier-capacitor circuit or said resistor-capacitor circuit, said marking voltage characteristic of said first input signal, said detector circuit identifying said first input signal and differentiating said first input signal from a second input signal according to said marking voltage characteristic; and a translator circuit that translates the first signal input into an output signal in response to said detector circuit identifying said first input signal.
