EPROM
Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory
is a special type of
memory that retains its contents until it is exposed to ultraviolet
light. The ultraviolet light clears its contents, making it possible to
reprogram the memory. To write to and erase an EPROM, you need
a special device called a PROM programmer or PROM burner.
An EPROM differs from a PROM in that a PROM can be written to
only once and cannot be erased. EPROMs are used widely in per-
sonal computers because they enable the manufacturer to change
the contents of the PROM before the computer is actually shipped.
This means that bugs can be removed and new versions installed
shortly before delivery.

nterface is a series of digital control lines, com-
prising both inputs and outputs which allows the connection of third
party pieces of equipment to a Drake CSU (q.v.). By programming
the operation of these control lines through the CMAPSi (q.v.) pack-
age, a third party piece of equipment can be made to interact with
the CSU.

unction is a set of CSU commands
which can be associated with a GPI (q.v.) input, such that the com-
mands are executed when the logic level of the specified input
changes to the desired state. For example, a GPSF could be used
to generate an audio route between two ports when one of the GPI
input pins became logic 'high'.
Howlround Distorted audio - due to feedback of original signal in close proxim-
ity. An audio resonance which is generated by the audio from an
output being fed back into its input. Feedback is characterised by a
high pitch 'squeal' and can be observed when a microphone is
placed in close proximity to a loudspeaker when there is an audio
route between the microphone and the loudspeaker.

ack provides a caller with the ability to talk over a
normal audio feed (source) to an operator (destination). An IFB
defines matrix connections between source and destination ports
while allowing IFB callers to interrupt a source and talk to a destina-
tion.
