Anyone know where to obtain a copy of the T1 Technical Report No. 12, entitled: 'DS1 ESF data link application guidelines', 1991, as referenced in footnote 14 on page 18 of ANSI T1.403-1995? ANSI's website didn't seem to offer much help...thanks Dwight --

Dan, Your email brings up two good points. One is an error that I made. EN 61000-6-2 is a Generic Standard, not a product specific or product family standard. My humble apologies (bow). The second point is that I never considered the possibility of a Generic Standard being entirely replaced

Don, I had a look through the ITE immunity spec EN55024 to see if it contained a better definition of acceptability. Section 7 defines performance criteria, and places the level of acceptability as that defined by the manufacturer. If it is not defined by the manufacturer, then it is what the

Don, The manufacturer defines the acceptable level of degradation. It must be consistent through out all the reports on your products. When I test my products I specify that the image must be 'clearly discernable' (i.e. if you can see the image of a person, but you can't easily tell whether it's

The solution is to be found in the Criteria being defined for transients tests. EN 50082-1 defines criterion B for EFT testing. Performance loss (full loss) is allowed , but only if the equipment is self restoring it's mode of operation after the test. The authors of the 130-4 did have the

In addition to that: the EEN 61000-6-2 is the newer (IEC originated) version of the EN 50082-2. Both are valid, EN 50082-2 being in it's end of life, EN 61000-6-2 not yet mandatory . We call this a transitory period. It depends of the products lifespan which one you use. No mystery at all, it

William, I beleive that EN 50081-2 and EN50082-2 were among the original standards for CE marking. When enforcement of the EMC Directive went in place on 1 January 1996, these standards were already in place. As such, it isn't any suprise to me that they don't supercede any other standards.
