I too have a problem with application of DOC or DOI.  We produce
Programmable Logic Controllers and associated Input/Output cards.  I've been
told I should use the DOI since the PLC will be incorporated into some
larger machine that it will control and that the I/O cards will be
incorporated into the PLC.  But we sell our goods as independent products.
In the limited amount of literature I've read, I find no mention of a DOI
and none mentioned in the Directives and Standards we use.  Can someone
direct me to a source document that spells out the difference?  Should I use
a DOC or a DOI?

Sincerely,
