EWG:Draft Oct 26 Standard Connection

2.1-F - Standard Connection

This page is the text proposed in the Nov Plenary Meeting.

Proposed to change the title: "Standard User Interface Connection"

Proposed new text from Randy, Nov 14, 2007:
If users can access and control the user interface of a product through a non-standard user connection, they must also be able to control that functionality through a standard user connection using standard protocols for that type of input or output. If an adapter is required to convert a non-standard user connection on an E&IT device into a standard user connection, the procuring agency must identify a market source for the connector it it isn't a standard option for the product.
