Mini and Micro Computer Control Devices are electronic devices that are used to control and manage the operations of mini and micro computers. These devices are typically small in size and are designed to interface with computers for various purposes, such as input/output control, data processing, and system management.

Examples of Mini and Micro Computer Control Devices include:

1. Keyboards: These devices allow users to input data and commands into the computer system by pressing keys.

2. Mice and Trackballs: These pointing devices are used to control the movement of the cursor on the computer screen.

3. Touchpads and Touchscreens: These devices allow users to interact with the computer by directly touching the screen or a touch-sensitive pad.

4. Joysticks and Gamepads: These devices are commonly used for gaming and provide control over the movement and actions of characters or objects in computer games.

5. Remote Controls: These devices are used to wirelessly control computer systems, such as media players or presentation software.

6. Barcode Scanners: These devices are used to scan barcodes for inventory management, product tracking, and other applications.

7. Biometric Devices: These devices use unique physical characteristics, such as fingerprints or facial recognition, to authenticate users and provide secure access to computer systems.

NATO Supply Class 7042 is specifically focused on these types of control devices for mini and micro computers. It is part of NATO Supply Group 70, which covers a wide range of information technology equipment, software, supplies, and support equipment used by NATO member countries for various military and civilian applications.
