Abstract

L'invention est un dispositif d'interfaçage servant à connecter l'unité de traitement d'un système de jeu informatisé à un support de stockage de données externe qui comporte une unité de sélection permettant à l'opérateur de produire des adresses et des données. Cette unité de sélection peut être dotée de commutateurs ou des bascules électroniques utilisables par l'opérateur qui sont armés par un programme en réponse aux sélections faites par l'opérateur au moyen d'un manchet, d'un clavier ou de tout autre dispositif de saisie. Une unité de comparaison d'adresses compare les adresses sélectionnées par l'opérateur avec celles qui proviennent de l'unité de traitement et un dispositif de commutation de données substitue les données sélectionnées par l'opérateur à celles qui se trouvent sur le support de stockage chaque fois que ces adresses correspondent. Au lieu d'utiliser une unité de sélection utilisable par l'opérateur, on peut stocker des adresses et des données présélectionnées dans une ROM; dans l'une de ces concrétisations, la façon dont l'ordinateur interprète le contenu de la mémoire externe s'en trouve modifiée, et dans une autre concrétisation, la mémoire interne même de l'ordinateur s'en trouve modifiée.
