Attorney, Agent or Firm: Townsend and Townsend

A multiplexing communication card and run-in testing method and apparatus are disclosed. A group of PC's are provided with a primary multiplexing communication card. The primary multiplexing communication card is connected with the host computer, and the secondary cards are serially connected to each other. Communication between the individual PC's with the host computer go through not only the primary multiplexing communication card but also the secondary multiplexing communication cards. The host computer scans each PC under test through the primary multiplexing communication card and the number of the testing cycle and the test results are transmitted to and displayed on the monitor of the host computer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION i The present invention provides a multiplexing communication card and scanning system for testing and monitoring the test results of many PC's using a single host computer and monitor.
The invention greatly speeds the collection speed of test results, reducing the potential for a bottleneck in the manufacturing process.
A multiplexing communication card and scanning system are used for monitoring the PC run-in test.
A group of PC's are loaded onto a suitable moving cart, conveyor belt, or the like.
A single multiplexing communication card is provided for each group of PC's and is connected to a host computer.
Communications between the PC and the host computer pass through the multiplexing card for the group of PC's.
The host computer scans each PC in the test group.
The number of the testing cycle and the test results are transmitted to and displayed on a monitor of the host computer.
