  I am looking for a box that connects to a serial port, and has
  an alarm (buzzer, bell, not ^G) and a lamp. The lamp should be
  easily visible from say 20-30 ft and the alarm should get your
  attention from the same distance. By sending a sequence to the
  box the light comes on (or alarm or both), send another and
  they goes off. (pretty simple stuff eh !)

  I know how easy it would be to design one of these, but we need
  one or two of these to be connected to a vax for resale. If anyone
  could mail me any pointers I would appreciate it. WE CAN NOT USE
  A TERMINAL BECAUSE WE DO NOT WANT TO DORK WITH THE USER INTERFACE
  OF OUR CODE FOR THE ONE OR TWO CUSTOMERS THAT WANT THIS. 

	( I am only interested in boxes with $$ <= 0.6K )
