Clarification request(s) and response
Mark Nathan: 12:07pm Feb 2, 2006: Sorry, a word got lost: réenclenchement automatique -
Mark Nathan: 12:09pm Feb 2, 2006: The rest of the captions with the diagram are comparatively low tech, so I am wondering if they - just mean cut out supply and automatic restarting (of the drinks vending machine)

SMPS
