Local area network. A computer network
covering a small physical area, characterised
by a limited geographic range and lack of a
need for leased telecommunication lines.

live insertion

live insertion

live insertion

The removal and then reinsertion of an
electronic module into a system while the
system remains powered. The assumption is
that removal of the module and reinsertion
will cause no electrical harm to the system.
Also referred to as 'hot swap'.

low demand mode

low demand mode

low demand mode

Where the frequency of demands for
operation made on a safety-related system is
no greater than one per year and no greater
than twice the proof-test frequency.
