PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a system which enables transmission of more time counting signals to another one or a plurality of other points after the inputting thereof from an arbitrary point with only one cable.;SOLUTION: A synchronous signal generation circuit is connected to one bus line, further, a plurality of input/output circuits are connected thereto and a time counting device for contest is connected to the input/output circuits. The input/output circuits are so arranged as to allow receiving of outputs from any other ones thereof. Synchronous signals to be outputted from the synchronous signal generation circuit are confined to two types and a signal requiring a higher time resolving power is transmitted by the synchronous signal with a fast cycle while a signal requiring no higher time resolving power done by the synchronous signal with a slow cycle thereby enabling transmission of more signals within one cycle.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2001,JPO
