COMP LIT FALL SEMESTER INPUT UNIT
GET OUT YOUR NOTEBOOKS AND PENS! NO SLEEPING, NO EATING, NO TALKING! LISTEN, LOOK, AND THINK. TAKE NOTES & ASK QUESTIONS. YOU WILL SEE THIS MATERIAL AGAIN!
DO NOT SIT THERE AND NOT UNDERSTAND! SOME OF THIS STUFF MIGHT SEEM A LTTLE WIERD AND CONFUSING. IF IT IS YOU MUST TELL ME! DO NOT BE EMBARRASED. I WILL EXPLAIN IT SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND. IS EVERYBODY ON BOARD?
REMEMBER… IF YOU SEE IT ON THE BOARD OR THE COMPUTER IT SHOULD BE IN YOUR NOTES! YOU WILL SEE THIS MATERIAL AGAIN! ALL WORK DONE ON TIME AND TURNED IN ON TIME!
Once again: • If you don’t “get it” then you must either… • Say so • or • Ask a question
NEVER BE AFRAID OR EMBARASSED TO ASK A QUESTION! ASKING QUESTION ABOUT WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW OR UNDERSTAND IS HOW YOU LEARN. DON’T WORRY ABOUT WHAT OTHERS THINK OR THINK THEY KNOW. THAT DOESN’T HELP YOU.
I/O and BIOS I/O stands for Input/Output BIOS stands for Basic Input/Output System
In computing, input/output, or I/O, refers to the communication between an a computer, and the outside world. Inputs are the signals or data sent to the system. Outputs are the signals or data sent by the system to the outside.
The first unit we cover is the one you use every time you do something on the computer… THE INPUT UNIT
The INPUT UNIT of the computer accepts information. It allows a user to put information into the computer by using input devices.
An input device is any peripheral (piece of computer hardware equipment) used to provide data and control signals to an information processing system (such as a computer).
USER The person who uses the computer or the programs and software.
Those pieces of input and output equipment are calledPERIPHERALS.
PERIPHERALS Equipment that is not part of the central computer but are attached to and work with the central computer.
Input and output devices make up the hardware interface between a computer and the user or outside world.
Just one “heads up”, word of caution or word of warning to you aboutINPUTandOUTPUTdevices. Some devices areINPUT ONLY Some devices areOUTPUT ONLY But There are some devices that can act like or be used as bothINPUT and OUTPUT
INPUT ONLY DEVICES DEVICES OR EQUIPMENT THAT CAN ONLY BE USED TO INPUT INFORMATION
DEVICE A mechanical invention or contrivance for some specific purpose.
HUMAN INTERFACE DEVICE A human interface devices is a type of computer device that interacts directly with humans, takes input from humans and allows them to communicate with computers.
Common Human Interface Devices Keyboard Graphics tablet Mouse Joystick Trackball Gamepad Touchpad Pointing stick
Less Common Human Interface Devices Driving simulator devices andFlight simulator devices have HIDs such as gear sticks, steering wheels and pedals. Nintendo Power Glove Dance pad Wii Remote
You should remember that these are devices that are used only to put information into the computer. They are not used for output. Many of them are not used with the PC’s, laptops, notebooks or home computers most people have and use.
