Re: Slink-E, VCRs and LANC(Control L)

Mike,

I guess I am out of touch. The Control-L (LANC) is a fairly sophisticated system. It is to video what Midi is to Audio.

Here is an excellent source on LANC info

http://www.york.ac.uk/~adv3/lanc/lanc.htm

The full hardware and protocol specs are there

If you want to research further, get on the WEB, go to Yahoo, enter CONTROL-L as the search, when the results come back switch to ALta-Vista as the search engine and start browsing. You will find the above site. Also the following Usenet articles might bew of interest
