RE: UPAMD Working Group Meeting for 14 February 2012



I believe a non-communicating device should be described as “mute”.

Subject: UPAMD Working Group Meeting for 14 February 2012

 

UPAMD Working Group

 

For tomorrow’s meeting.  Please consider a name for use for the current Dumb devices.  These are now Dumb and non-communicating devices.  A better name is sought.  It should show that they are not regular devices and at the bottom of the priority queue.   I would like to take a poll on the device names we discuss at the meeting.  Feel free to offer suggestions.

 

If you have not voted on the question:

Should we include source power requirements for UPAMD device?

1.      Shall we specify AC input power requirements as shown in Section 11 of draft?

2.      Shall we specify DC input power requirements?

3.      Shall we specify NO input requirements?

 

I will tally the votes at upamd-vote before the meeting, it is fairly lopsided at this time.
