[PSES] Estonian Standards MultiUser License

2015-03-04 Thread Kunde, Brian
Please forgive me if this is a repeat. Does anyone have experience buying Standards from Estonia using the MultiUser Licence? Do they still use FileOpen to control what computers can open the files like they do with a single user license or do they have a way of limiting how many different

Hi Brian, I recently purchased a multi-user (2) license for Estonian standards. I've opened them on more than one computer with no issues. It, however, would not download from an intranet site. Opening from a directory from multiple computers seems to work fine. Regards, Mike On Mar 4,

Brian, It’s been a few months since I’ve bought one from Estonia but I buy all mine with multi-user (2) licenses and for this no special software is required to view the files and there are no programmatically enforced restrictions. We don’t normally have more than 1 or 2 users looking at a

Rich, Thanks for forcing my brain into another frame of mind. I had not thought of it in exactly that way until I read your comment. The statements we are discussing are either those prescribed by the applicable standard, or more often, the CYA type statements we all include in our users guides

Brian, The FileOpen control is not in place on the multiuser copies of their standards. I store our copies on a network drive with limited access to about 50 users. I purchase the 2 license copy of it the standard knowing that it will be rare that more than 2 will use it at the same time.

Same message I've been communicating here internally as well. Management certainly supports and expects to have it right the first time but educating on what needs to happen and by who to accomplish that seems to be a recurring theme. -Dave -Original Message- From: John Woodgate

Hello All, My experiences with purchasing 2 copies of the Estonian standards are similar to those who have replied. It’s very rare that another person is reading a standard at the same time as I am. As a matter of fact, it is very difficult to get our engineers to take an interest in reading

Hello Grace, Consider IEC 60335-2-73 or IEC 60335-2-74 for the immersion heater portion. These standards do have some requirements for motors. I can only see the index, so I don't know how they would apply to the circulation pump. Ted Eckert Compliance Engineer Microsoft Corporation

Many years ago, a group of RD engineers came to me and said: We want to learn about product safety, but we don't want to read the standards. The result was the HBSE course. If the product safety engineer does his job, there will be no test failures. Best regards, Rich -Original
