If a product has user interface connection capabilities, whether wired or
wireless, at least one connection must comply with publicly available
industry standards.
If users can control any product functionality through a non-standard
connection, they must also be able to control that functionality through a
standard connection for that type of input or output.
ADVISORY NOTE: If there are proprietary protocols in the terminal, so long
as the protocols are over a standard physical connection, cooperation
between E&IT vendors and AT vendors will make it possible for the devise to
be compatible with AT.
ADVISORY NOTE: if an adapter is required to convert a proprietary connector
on an E&IT device into a standard connector, it shall be the responsibility
of the E&IT vendor to provide the adapter.
