Data Bus: One method of input/output for a system where data is moved by way of a group of wires forming a common bus

Decrease Button: Control button used to decrease values

Digital: Information in discrete or quantified form, not continuous

DIP: Dual Inline Package; a type of Integrated Circuit (IC)

DIP Switch: Type of electronic switch having multiple, manually selectable settings

Earth ground: The portion of an electrical circuit that is at zero potential with respect to the earth

Electrostatic Field: The field around an electrostatically charged object

Electrostatic Voltage: Voltage generated by the sliding, rubbing or separating action between materials

EPROM: Erasable and Programmable Read-Only Memory; an integrated circuit memory chip whose stored data can be read at random (Data can be erased and new data can be stored.)

ESDS: ElectroStatic Discharge Sensitive; sensitive to electrostatic voltage of 4000 volts or less as determined by the human test circuit

Fill Period: The period during which the humidifier pan is filled from a partially filled state to the level required for optimum humidification
