Abstract This document recommends practices to implement board level live insertion with existing VMEbus boards. Approval of an American National Standard requires verification by ANSI American that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for National approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standard Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether they have approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standard Institute.
