System Description and Diagram

The control board is a simple piece of hardware, as it is mainly a variety of input and output devices connected to a microcontroller. Many types of output devices are used, ranging from simple LEDs to graphics-capable liquid crystal displays. Three main types of input devices are used: buttons, datawheels and faders. Figure 10 shows the overall system diagram. This view depicts the system in terms of each of the input and output elements.
