System board
The large circuit board
that contains the principle components
of the computer, and to which
accessories are connected.
Test characters
Characters that the
modem automatically generates during
a loopback test. If the test characters
received are the same as those sent, the
modem has passed the loopback test.
Total harmonic distortion
A
specification for quantifying the fidelity
of audio processing equipment.
Touch tone dialing
A dialing method
(as opposed to pulse dialing), in which
telephone numbers are sent as tones
over the telephone line. Telephones
capable of touch-tone dialing have 10
number buttons, a * button, and a #
button.
Tracks
The virtual tracks used by
MIDI sequencers.
Video controller
An expansion board
or chip whose function is to convert
signals in the computer into displayable
signals.

The number of synthesized
sounds that a device can generate
simultaneously.

The international data
communications standard for modems
that can operate at speeds up to
1200 bps.
V.22bis
