Designation on off Conventional functional designations on all types of equipment

Speech by Professor Karelsky State University Ivanova A.V. in St. Petersburg, July 4, 2016. "There are only two final exams at school: basic mathematics and Russian. High school has become meaningless." Video: [link-1]

1) Finally, I figured out the reception procedures until 2015 and since 2015, the logic of calls, etc.
2) It is interesting about the piecewise linear scale for converting primary points into secondary points in mathematics in the middle part of this scale.
3) Especially interesting - about the experiment with the "general profile" in Vladikavkaz and Birobidzhan.
4) To this long video it would be nice to do a decryption. 1 hour 45 minutes is a very long time. Moreover, the most interesting and new thing, starting from the middle of the video, and not from the beginning.

Something he repeats and fantasizes quite openly. If you listen to him, the soviet school is straightforward to the tsar's grammar school. They took and produced teachers of the same quality, only a hundred times more. Yeah, for 20 years. Teachers they reproduce like cats, they are killed, expelled, and they only become more numerous.
And it turns out that my physics teacher from a courtyard school could teach physics. And the mathematician is the mathematician. And the fact that in the 8th grade I found mistakes behind the scenes in every second lesson. But then I did not study mathematics additionally, I just knew how to read and read the school (!!!) textbook on mathematics and physics for those entering universities. And FSE !!!)))
Now, if the teachers also knew how to read, then I could not find mistakes with them. But they could read something even in the university, if they could actually read, of course. But they did not know how, they knew how to read aloud, and the meaning escaped. Like most school teachers, what's in the 30s, what's in the 80's, what's now.
And if it were not so, then the parents of modern children would have an education. And the school had nothing to do with the education of children, since they would teach their children to read.
A dangerous dreamer, proceeding in his reasoning from his false fantasies. He wants to sweep everything under the rug so that the same illiterate teachers take exams, reproduce their own kind and everything looks good. And he would have taken entrance exams from those who themselves learned without school, as before.
Does he himself have schoolchildren? What are the students?
There is only one problem with the exam - predictable questions. If you make them unpredictable, 90 percent will not give up, so, alas, they will not. But if they did, the preparation method would immediately change. They would not prepare for questions, they would teach precisely the sciences.

These are two completely wonderful stories- memories of the era of the 90s.
No pink snot, but beautiful romantic story there is.
Structurally built on episodes-memories of the current 40-year-olds about their youth. Where there were crazy fans of pop groups, and the first new technologies and computers, first love, fateful football matches the Korean national team, etc. Very funny. Very close in spirit to us, I just looked like myself :))) Something, again in spirit, is similar to "Friends", only this is still not a sitcom, but a series. Very funny boys-girls confrontations, funny men's troubles, as they do in their youth :)))
Until the very end of the series, the intrigue remains, for whom the heroine nevertheless married :))) What kind of someone she married is immediately clear, but for which of the 3-5 guys around it is not clear until the end :))) Special thanks for images of parents are something :)))) And how is the sheep bleating behind the scenes! :))))

For those who are afraid not to distinguish between faces - here the faces and role images are selected so that it is impossible not to distinguish. :)))

First, it's better to watch 1997, then 1994, because the second series sometimes plays up the first in a funny way, even in episodes 1997 characters appear.

Look - you will not regret it.

And here's another topic. We carefully read- "8.1. Before starting a movement, changing lanes, turning (turning) and stopping, the driver must give signals with direction indicators of the appropriate direction, and if they are missing or defective, with his hand. In this case, the maneuver must be safe and not interfere with other participants movement. " If I stand in the far right lane and start driving straight ahead, should I turn on the turn signal and what if I, again, go straight? Something I don’t ...

Discussion

And whoever has an emergency gang is ready to explode! :-)))

Let's read: "8.1. Before starting to move, changing lanes, turning (turning) and stopping, the driver must give signals with direction indicators of the appropriate direction, and if they are missing or defective, with his hand. In this case, the maneuver must be safe and not interfere with other participants movement. "
And why should the driver do all this? What are turn signals for? He himself, in general, imagines where he is going to go and he does not need turn signals to turn or stop. Then it is logical to assume that turn signals are needed to inform other road users.
And from the point of view of other road users, the driver leaving the acceleration lane of the Moscow Ring Road actually drives to the left, moving away from the sidewalk at least slightly, but to the left moves ...
So the left turn signal, as many have already written, in in this case more logical.

do not prohibit what is not dangerous for the child's health. if she's having fun, let her jump! we ourselves grew up on continuous prohibitions - without explaining why "not allowed" - stupidly "not allowed" and that's it! like "I said so". Did you like it? to me - no. and my children jump calmly. after all, it's not news for a long time that when you can do a lot - do something unpleasant for adults, children somehow don't want to be a "specialist" ...

the child has unfulfilled physical activity, plus a lack of mom's attention in the evening .. play tag, we still play rolls, I currency her on the bed, and she gets up, I currency again - so much joy))) still hold hands, raise legs, raise gymnastics to the child and you instead simulator ..
3 years old, still a baby, well, she does not understand a lot, she is still learning something, especially the fact that her mother is not busy with her, but with the TV. Buy your child a trampoline where you can jump)

Yesterday we moved to a new rented apartment. With a dishwasher. Since we have never dealt with this unit, we do not know from which side to approach it. There is no instruction.

I usually use the saucepan program. Everything is better washed. Only crystal and glass do not need to be installed.
At the bottom of the machine is for salt. In the door - I have such a screw-off round cap for the rinse aid, and for the powder - a folding one, it is very easy to handle it, because the powder has to be put in every time.

Normal program for very dirty dishes, economical - if there are no greasy pans and pans, medium soiling. I don’t know about the fast one, I don’t have it on Bosh. Two containers in the door - for detergents... If there are a lot of dishes, you fall asleep only in a large compartment, if there are not enough - accordingly, in a small one. From the funds you need the entire gentleman's set - detergent (powder or granules), rinse liquid, salt to soften hard water (do not neglect it, the machine will last longer). By the way, try to understand the instructions, there may be a small container on the door for rinsing media, there should also be a container for it. I have such a small box with a hole and a window for level control, but I have Bosch.

The child somehow turned on the subject on the boot screen of the laptop and now it is impossible to turn it off. Every time you turn it on, everything is black and white again. Ease of Access Center, Theme Change, Hotkeys - Don't help (what else can you do?

Tell me what the problem is. The computer stopped automatically updating the time. I went to the provider, he said that the matter was in the battery, he came to change it. After that, the computer began not just not to update the time, but after turning it on shows for some reason December 2004, as a result of which the antivirus immediately goes crazy. I no longer want to call this would-be lomak. And what could be the matter - put a broken battery?

install right time and shut down (do not restart your computer); if the next day the time "flies" then the matter is in a bad battery

The workers recommended me to do it at the level of a lowered hand - and it turns out - 90 cm. However, we have a one and a half year old child, so they did it somewhere at the level of 120-130 cm. )

We have all switches at the level of 1 m from the floor.
The main part of the rosettes is at a level of 20 cm from the floor. Exceptions:
* sockets for a TV and a VCR (and a TV antenna at the same time) in the bedroom, which will be located on the wall on the bracket. They are located high where the TV is supposed to be.
* sockets for the work surface in the kitchen. They are located between the upper and lower kitchen cabinets.
* sockets in bathrooms for an epilator / hair dryer / razor (although no one uses an electric razor here :-))
I would also make a "high" outlet in the corridor for a hairdryer, if you do not dry your hair in the bathroom, and a "high" outlet for an iron, if ironing board its own socket is not provided.

On the own experience... A husband (already a former) introduced our children 9 and 4 years old to his beloved when we were still married. The children liked her, still: she also wanted to impress them: a kind, affectionate aunt. Because my husband immediately moved from our house to her, then he took the children to her for the weekend. The children did not mind: she spoiled them. I was furious, drank sedatives. And until now (they have not signed yet) she behaves this way. There are excesses: he calls my elder and says how much he misses him, how he loves, waits for a visit. I immediately call my husband (second-hand) and say not to mislead the children, in my opinion this is a farce ... He listens, she does not call for a while, but writes to her son in classmates ... In short , go with the flow. The situation is simplified by the fact that now her son will live with her - 7 years old, and the children are not friendly at all, he also calls BM "dad", which makes me angry))) Good luck, wisdom and patience !!!

I will add with personal experience:
- iron teapots are very noisy when heating water.
it is worth checking the rhinestone in the store for what sound, so that it does not become an unpleasant surprise (like a squeak when boiling, you can hear it through the whole apartment even with closed doors).
- the body of iron teapots gets very hot. If there are children, then it is better to provide for this, so as not to hide the kettle in the "inaccessible zone".
- there are enough programs for heating at 40,60,70,80,90,100 degrees ... intermediate values ​​are simply not needed, but for their presence the price of a kettle increases.

And lastly, you can perfectly clean the kettle by boiling water with the addition citric acid or vinegar. This method is perfect for both open and hidden heating elements.

Still, I prefer to buy in regular stores. You can touch it, you can see it. In online stores, it is often not the case.
I really do not like (this is a digression) that in many games (those in the boxes) there is often no description of the game on the box itself. This makes no sense. Our manufacturers are especially famous for this.

I have been buying all toys in online stores for almost a year. I especially like those with customer reviews. I prefer to take 3 games for 100 rubles than one for the same money. I buy 7-8 pieces at once, but I give them one at a time, sometimes I give a second one, if the first one didn’t go. But in general, the approach is correct to first look at at least analogs. But for a birthday, you can be generous.

Thank you. When I was pregnant, I tried to "work out" with the baby in advance, I constantly worked with him every day, I thought that I would not be able to do anything at all when the second was born. And now it is more and more fun and easier every day. We have a huge wooden construction set and we build together and destroy. The senior whirligig is awful, but it seems to me that there are more brains now, but earlier he could, for example, while I feed the baby, hide from me with a curtain on the windowsill. The main thing is that for 3 years you will not changed their mind because the second child is important step and in fact everything is very serious. and if you do not get distracted by household chores, and play nonstop with the kids, ideas are born every minute.

Flash-presentation of REMOTE SWITCH-REGULATOR "SAPPHIRE" at the link:

A dimmer from a conventional switch is real.

If you have already installed a switch that suits you in design, color, etc., you can give it the function of a dimmer by installing one of the dimmer units AGAT -K, -S, -D (Push-button, touch or remote at your choice).

Agat-D, unlike Sapphire, does not have the function of imitating the presence of a person in an apartment, but also, like Sapphire, controls any remote control.

When reading, dining or relaxing, the lighting level should be appropriate for each of these activities.
Dimmers (dimmers) "Agat" allow you to set the required this moment lighting level. They are ideal for bedrooms, where bright light is practically not needed, and for children, if your little one does not want to fall asleep in the dark.
The lighting level when turned off is remembered, and therefore the light turned on at night will not disturb your loved ones.
"Agate" smoothly switches the light on and off, so that your eyes have time to adapt to changing lighting conditions.
The dimmer "Agat" is designed to switch on, off, smoothly adjust the brightness of lighting and extend the life of the lamps. The dimmer is designed for joint operation with incandescent and 220 V halogen lamps.

When choosing a dimmer "Agat", pay attention to the fact that the power of the load connected to the dimmer should be no more than the one indicated on it.

Experienced residents know perfectly well how to use such a device, but newcomers ask many questions about the operation of the intercom. This article will help the owners to understand the new device for them. In it you can find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions by users about the operation of this machine.

What is an intercom

First, you need to briefly introduce the essence of the matter and explain to those who do not know what kind of miracle device it is - an intercom.

Intercom systems are used on entrance doors and the gate. They allow the owner of the dwelling to personally control the access of persons to his home. Usually, such devices can be found most often on. They are equipped with intercoms that work with multiple subscribers.

The intercom allows you to secure the apartment and the entrance from unwanted persons, and bad companies and this allows you to keep flights of stairs clean and tidy. And products equipped with a video camera allow each visitor to be captured, which, in the event of a robbery in the house, will help to establish the identity of the thief.

Working principle and constituent elements

This device consists of several main parts and mechanisms. The elements that carry out the main work of this system are:

  • external calling panel;
  • signal switch;
  • inner panel tubes;
  • electromagnetic lock;
  • exit button.
Connection diagram of the constituent elements of the device

All these parts of the system are interconnected and work in the same way. The external panel provides communication with subscribers and allows access to the door locked with an electromagnetic lock. In turn, the tubes of the internal ones help to monitor the course of events at the external panel through the built-in camera and to carry out remote access of persons.

How to use this unit

Intercoms in the homes of residents of our country have appeared for a long time. Someone deals with this device every day, so they know all its flaws and quality. And those who have not had to work with this device may get stuck, not knowing how to use the intercom.

First of all, the simplest question is: how can a visitor contact the landlord?

Having come to visit, a person will one day encounter such an action for the first time in his life. If the house is private, then it is most likely, almost 99%, that there is one single button on the door station. After pressing this button, a signal is transmitted to the house, accompanied by an audible warning from the system that a call is in progress. The owner, upon hearing a sound similar to a telephone call, must answer the call on the indoor panel handset. Having previously familiarized himself with the guest through the speakers and microphones built into the composite panels of the system, the host can unlock the visitor by pressing a special button on the remote control of the internal panel. Usually this button has a picture in the form padlock.



Voice contact can be made between the outer panel and the handset

If the guest has visited a friend who lives in an apartment building, then you need to know the apartment number, dial his number on the special numeric keypad of the external call panel and press the call button. Next steps the same as in the first case.

How can a tenant get access to the entrance?

Everything is clear with the guests: you warn them in advance about the apartment number, they come, call the apartment and get access to the house.

And how to get into the entrance, bypassing the electronic lock? Intercom systems are equipped with a tablet-shaped reader for special keys. The key is applied to this niche, the microcontroller reads the cipher from the key, verifies it with the base in its system and, if there is a match, gives access to the house.



The electromagnetic lock can be opened with a key reader or by entering a pin code

For some reason, the landlord does not have a key. He moved into the house recently, when he was bought, he was given one copy of the key, and he lost that one. In this case, you can, of course, call your neighbors a couple of times and ask them to open the door. But this is not worth doing, the constant anxiety of neighbors will not lead to good. To open an electromagnetic lock, you can enter an electronic code consisting of a combination of numbers, usually four characters. This code can be obtained from neighbors or from the installer. To do this, you will need to present a residence permit.

Does the intercom work and how not to miss a call?

Many novice users of this device ask how to understand that the intercom is turned on. The hostess is waiting for a guest or doctors and does not know if her intercom is working. How, in this case, not to ignore the arrival of visitors and not make them wait, just because the intercom was turned off? Many intercoms are equipped with a button for switching the state of the intercom operation, but no clear reason do not have the usual "on" signatures and "off", and are equipped with other marks - "stick" and "circle". So, when the intercom is turned on: in the position of the wand or the circle? You should immediately dot all the points over I. Yes, you understood correctly, the wand is the English-speaking I, and the circle is O. These are abbreviations from English words IN and OUT, analogs of Russian ON. and OFF. Therefore, with a stick, the intercom works, with a circle, it is turned off.

Some models do not have signatures on the handset on / off button

How to get out of the entrance?

It often happens that you go down the stairs to the entrance to the entrance, and it is so dark there that a person who does not know how to open the door from the inside may get confused. To open an electromagnetic or electromechanical lock inside the room, a special button is installed at the level of the external panel, at a height of 1.3-1.4 meters. When you press it, a beep sounds and the lock is unlocked.



It is difficult to find a way out in the dark, the illuminated exit button will help with this.

Important! The exit button is round, it is illuminated along the contour, but due to the fact that abrupt transition from a light room to a dark one does not allow the human eyes to see the color, it seems that there is no button.

I didn’t pay for the intercom, it was turned off, how do I connect the device myself?

Utilities can disconnect a specific apartment from common system if the tenant doesn't pay the bills. It happens that tenants who regularly paid utility bills are subjected to such actions by utilities.

You can disconnect a tenant in various ways:

  • make it impossible to call a certain apartment;
  • remove the key cipher from the database;
  • disconnect the tube from the system mechanically.

Often the subscriber is deprived of the opportunity to use the device in the first two ways. This is achieved by introducing certain combinations in the software environment on the external panel.

So, if the key does not work, the apartment is not called, the bills are all paid, and there is no response from the relevant authorities to requests to restore the system, then you can resort to independent actions.

Let's consider an example for one of the most popular systems - Vizit. If public Utilities removed the ability to call your apartment, you need to do the following.

At the entrance there is a switchboard for the system, you need to open it and get to the board in the block. It has a special jumper that is responsible for the state of the system mode. From the working state (work) it must be switched to the programming mode (PRG). After that, you should go to the calling panel and enter the required combination of numbers. The entry process will be accompanied by sound signals.



The programming environment on the Vizit device
  1. # 999. The intercom will beep twice, the display will show “1-2”.
  2. It is necessary to enter the installation environment, for this press 1. One beep, display state: "P_SE".
  3. Among all the possibilities of installations under the number 8, the service of turning on and off the call to the apartment. Accompanied by a single beep, “A__” appears on the display.
  4. Next, the apartment number is entered. The number of characters is from 1 to 3. If the apartment number is one-digit or two-digit, then after the number you need to enter #, if it is three-digit, the hash is omitted.
  5. 1 - turn on the call to the apartment, this will be displayed on the display with the ON value and the system double beep.
  6. * - saves and exits the installation environment.

You can check the progress of the call to the apartment.

If the key does not work, but should be in good condition, then, most likely, it was removed from the system database. To return the key to the base, you must also switch the system to the programming mode with a jumper on the board. Enter the following combination on the panel, which will also be accompanied by sound signals.

# 999 (double beep) 1 (single beep) 3 (more beep) APARTMENT NUMBER #

Attention! If the apartment number is three-digit, then there is no need to enter a lattice at the end.

This combination prepares the system for recording the key cipher in order to enter it into memory. If after entering this combination on the display appears the inscription FULL, accompanied by four beeps, then the memory is full and the key cannot be written. If, after entering the apartment number, a single beep sounded, then the system is ready to remember the key.



It is best to have several additional keys in case of loss or disconnection from the base

The key must be attached to the reader. If a double beep sounds and YES appears, the key has been written successfully. If there are several keys, then they can be applied one after the other. The main thing is to save all actions at the end by introducing *.

Learning to use the intercom, learning new things is not so difficult. Do not be afraid and think that this device can only bring inconvenience, in fact, you need to understand that it makes life much easier and adds safety to all residents.

As you can see, the switch is placed in the break of the phase wire going to the luminaire. So in a socket box with electrical wiring under a one-button switch, there are two wires.



The first, let's call it "A", goes to the switch from the electrical panel and always energized.
The second, let's call it "B", goes from the switch to the luminaire.

When you press the switch button - the conductors "A" and "B" are connected, the voltage goes unhindered to the lamp and the lamps in it light up. Accordingly, when the key is released, the contact is broken and the light goes out.

Now, if you recall the basic designations in electrics that we considered (there are not so many of them, I advise you to read it for the future), it becomes clear what the “L” marking on the switch contact means.

The designation "L", on the switch, indicates the contact for connecting the phase conductor. The same wire "A" in our circuit, which comes from the electrical panel and is always energized.

It is quite simple to determine which of the wires in the socket must be placed in terminal L of the light switch - just check, for example, with an indicator screwdriver, which of the conductors has voltage - that will be the desired phase wire "A".

In the remaining, free, contact of the one-key switch, which can be marked in different ways: L1, L`, with an arrow, “1”, or not at all, wire “B” from our circuit is connected, which goes directly to the switch.



You can familiarize yourself with a rather detailed description of how to properly connect a one-button switch, with a description of not only its contacts and the procedure for connecting wires, but the entire installation process.

If, when examining the terminals of the light switch, in addition to the designation L and L1, you also encountered contacts with some markings, then most likely you are dealing with a two- or three-key switch.

When defining the assignment of contacts, for example, a two-button switch, the same logic works, let's take a look at its diagram.



When connecting a two-rocker switch, three wires are used, which are available when mounted in a flush-mounted box, these are:

"A" is the phase wire coming from the electrical panel and is always energized. Connected to terminal L of the two-rocker switch.

"B" - a conductor going to the first lamp, or turning on the first mode of the chandelier operation. It is connected to terminal L1, L` or just "1" of the light switch.

"C" - the wire going to the second lamp or turning on the second operating mode of the same chandelier. It is connected to terminal L2, L,, or just "2" of the light switch.



I think now general principle the marking of all light switches is clear to you. More details on how to connect a two-button switch, which and where wires should be connected, are described.

Contact L - this is always the place to connect the phase wire .


The rest of the contacts (L1, L2, L3), most often numbered in order, refer to the corresponding keys of the switch, pressing of which will light the lamp connected to the terminal of this key.




Determine which of the wires is responsible for turning on which of the lamps, without special equipment, pretty hard. Therefore, usually their connection is revealed experimentally.

By alternately connecting the free conductors to the phase wire in the socket box, you will be able to notice which lamps are lit. In other words, you can connect the switch arbitrarily (except for the “L” terminal) and, if the keys are reversed, simply swap the wires in the L2 and L3 terminals, if the switch is two-key.

If there are three or four contacts for connection, and the light switch is one-key, or there are six contacts, and the switch is two-key, then you are most likely holding one of the types of switches in your hands.


Loop-through switch connection diagram- you can see three contacts for connecting wires at a one-key device. Two-rocker switch- six terminals for connecting wires.

Cross switch connection diagram- four contacts for connecting wires for a one-key model -.

Reading alphanumeric designations of electrical circuit elements

On all types of circuits, any element - a resistor, a contactor coil, a measuring device, etc., has an alphanumeric designation.

This designation consists of one or two letters and numbers. Letter (s) designate-

yut code of this element, and numbers (digits) - serial number of this element in the given diagram.

For example, the alphanumeric designation KT2 means the following: KT is a time relay, 2 is the second in order in this diagram.

In the case of the image on the diagram component parts elements of electrical circuits

after the main digital designation, an additional one is put through a dot, I denote

the serial number of this component.

In this case, the decoding of the designations of numbers and letters is performed in the reverse order, i.e. alphabetic characters and numbers are read from right to left.

For example, the alphanumeric designation KM5.4 means the following: KM is the coil of the electromagnetic contactor, the serial number of the contactor in the circuit is 5, the serial number of the contact of the contactor in the circuit is 4.

This designation is read as follows: the fourth contact of the fifth electro

magnetic contactor.

This post will describe Short story some of the computer symbols that most of us see every day. The origin of some of them may already be familiar to you, the origin of the rest is unlikely. In any case, who is interested in knowing what the ⌘ symbol means, how the bluetooth symbol is associated with runes and where the @ symbol came from - welcome under cat.

Power

This symbol can be found on a huge number of devices. During World War II, a binary system was used to represent the power buttons: a one (1) meant “on,” and a zero (0) meant off.

Initially, a broken zero with a one in the middle denoted an incomplete switch on and was used to denote a standby mode - this value was assigned to it in 1973. However, later it was decided that such a meaning could confuse users, and assigned it the meaning it has today: the on button. / off. anything.

There are several varieties of the symbol: on, off, on. on / off, incomplete on / off. (also used for normal on / off)

At one time, "sleep mode" itself was a phenomenon that caused misunderstanding among the consumer. The thought that the device could be turned on and off at the same time was hard to digest in the minds of people. However, the innovation stuck, and an icon in the shape of a crescent moon was proposed for it by the same Institute of Electronics and Electrical Engineers.

The appearance is not surprising: it fully describes the process for which it is responsible. At least such a standard is accepted in the USA and Europe, while in Japan you can find the image of “Zzzz” (note: this is how the sound allegedly made by a sleeping person is denoted in comics).

This symbol was brought to IT by Apple - and precisely because Steve Jobs himself decided to reduce the number of apple symbols on his company's products. At some point, Apple developers came up with a good and simple idea: to make a multitasking button on the keyboard that, pressed together with some other key, would call a menu command. This would allow users to save time and issue commands directly from the keyboard.


Initially, the button was denoted by the same logo that adorns all Apple products: a half-eaten apple. However, Jobs immediately hated the symbol, shouting, “There are too many apples on the screen! This is ridiculous!". And the developers rushed to redesign the new button.

It was completed by the artist Susan Kare. Moreover, the icon used for the Command button is not its personal design. Care discovered it in the dictionary of international symbols and signs, where it had a lot of the most diverse and sometimes completely unexpected meanings.

So, this sign denotes the loop of infinity, in Unicode and in the form of a car sign this symbol denotes a place of interest sign, in some systems it is called the loop of the Gorgon, and in Sweden and others scandinavian countries this symbol indicates a campground.


Bluetooth

In the 10th century, Denmark was ruled by a king like Harald Blatand (Harald I Bluetooth), who united the conflicting Danish tribes into a single kingdom. The point is that Bluetooth does the same thing with communication protocols, uniting them into one universal standard. Most likely, this king received the nickname for his dark front tooth.

The first bluetooth was similar to a tooth and had blue color- in fact, this is reflected in the name, Bluetooth (from the English blue - "blue" and tooth - respectively, "tooth"). This caused an association with Harald in the head of one of the developers, and they decided to make the icon from a combination of signs that indicated the initial of the ancient monarch. Thus, the resulting symbol is a combination of two Nordic ("Scandinavian") runes: "Hagall" is an analogue of Latin H and "Berkanan" is Latin B.

The USB symbol is a tree-like block diagram, at the opposite ends of which there are big circle, small circle, triangle and square. Different figures emphasize that USB is a universal interface.

Initially, the prototype of the icon denoting connecting other devices to a computer using USB technology was the trident of the ancient Roman deity Neptune (or Poseidon, of your choice). Why exactly him is unknown, perhaps because it was considered one of the most powerful and all-powerful.

Play / Pause

These symbols came to the computer world from the world of audio and media players. They first appeared as symbols for operating cassette decks in the 60s. By analogy with playback, the fast forward buttons were designated as a double triangle. which could be both right- and left-handed: the direction of their tip indicates the direction of the rewind itself. Everything is simple and logical.

As for the pause sign, there is no exact data regarding the appearance. However, there are several hypotheses. The most probable of them is that the sign came to us from a musical literacy, where it is called "caesura" and means, in fact, a pause. According to another version, this is a stop sign from which the middle is cut.

This symbol has a wide variety of names. We know him by the word "dog". In France and Italy it is called "snail" (which, by the way, is the most logical name), in China - "little mouse", in Germany, without bothering, @ is called "the tail of a monkey."

The name "commercial at" takes its origin from English accounts, for example, 5 widgets @ $ 2 each = $ 10, which translates as "5 items of $ 2 each = $ 10" (English at = "by"). Since this symbol was used in business, it was placed on the keyboards of typewriters and from there migrated to the computer.

In the USSR, this sign was unknown before the advent of the computer.

One of the versions of the origin of the name “dog”: on alphanumeric monitors of personal computers of the DVK series (1980s), the “tail” of the image of this symbol drawn on the screen was very short, which made it look like a schematically drawn dog. The @ symbol was displayed every time the DCK computer was turned on, after which the user had to select a boot loader.


Also, the first Soviet users of computer networks could see this symbol on the Fidonet emblem, which depicts a dog, where the @ sign is located in the center of the muzzle and acts as a nose.

Firewire

We also owe this symbol to the developers at Apple. In 1995, a group of Apple developers - the main creators of FireWire - began to create a symbol that was supposed to accurately reflect the meaning new technology... This interface, which was originally conceived as an alternative to SCSI, was attractive for its high (at that time) speed of connection to digital audio and video equipment. Therefore, a symbol with three prongs was chosen, symbolizing video, audio and data. Initially, the sign was red, but later, for reasons unknown to anyone, the color was changed to yellow

This icon brings up some of the most bright emotions those who encounter it because it notifies about a frozen application or the entire system, in Mac OS, and has many unofficial names. From the censored: spinning pizza, hellish hypno-wheel, whirligig of death, hypnotoad, and perhaps the most famous and almost official - the abbreviation SBBOD (from the English Spinning Beach Ball Of Death, literally: “spinning beach ball of death”).

The developers themselves - by the way, again from Apple - called their invention a "rotating waiting cursor", and, according to experts, it was conceived as an alternative to the cursor with hourglass which was used in early versions of Mac OS.

It originates from the NeXTstep operating system. There he personified a rotating magneto-optical disk from which the system and other applications were very slow to load.

Ethernet

The Ethernet port symbol was created by David Hill of IBM. According to Hill, this symbol is part of a set of symbols that were intended to represent the various LAN connections that are currently available. It shows an array that is purposefully non-hierarchical and consists of computer elements or terminal elements.
