Abstract: A gateway for connection to a host processor and multiple slaves, which are organized in a point-to-point (P2P) topology, is provided. The gateway has an independent channel for each of the slaves, and the gateway can receive multiple control signals, each including at least one control signal for a particular predetermined slave from the multiple slaves, from the host processor. The host processor determines whether the slaves for which the at least one control signal has been received are in an operational state; and to simultaneously output the control signals received from the host processor to the slaves for which the at least one control signal has been received only when all of the slaves for which the at least one control signal has been received are in the operational state.
