8、dardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes In
9、ternational Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may particip
10、ate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement betwe
11、en the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publication
12、s have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
13、 misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding
14、national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any servi
15、ces carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC Nati
16、onal Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention i
17、s drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shal
18、l not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. However, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technical report when it has collected data of a different kind from that which is
19、 normally published as an International Standard, for example “state of the art“. IEC TR 62964, which is a Technical Report, has been prepared by subcommittee 3C: Graphical symbols for use on equipment, of IEC technical committee 3: Information structures and elements, identification and marking pri
20、nciples, documentation and graphical symbols. The text of this Technical Report is based on the following documents: Enquiry draft Report on voting 3C/1953/DTR 3C/2006/RVC Full information on the voting for the approval of this Technical Report can be found in the report on voting indicated in the a

24、EC/TR 62964:2015IEC TR 62964:2015 IEC 2015 5 INTRODUCTION The first edition of IEC 60417, Graphical symbols for use on equipment, was published in 1973. Since then the publication has been maintained and updated continuously, mainly by adding new graphical symbols in order to meet the requirements o
25、f technical committees and subcommittees within the IEC as well as ISO/IEC JTC 1 together with industries. This Technical Report thus includes classical graphical symbols targeted to specific application areas as well as basic graphical symbols for general application. In the era of information comm
26、unication technology (ICT), new graphical symbols for use on such equipment as multimedia equipment have been in strong demand for standardization. These graphical symbols are not only printed, engraved, embossed, or moulded on the equipment, but also used on screens and displays. In the latter case
27、, the appearance of a graphical symbol is dynamically changed to indicate a state of the equipment. This Technical Report intends to highlight current tendency and practice of using graphical symbols for use on equipment.

28、 EQUIPMENT GRAPHICAL SYMBOLS FOR MULTIMEDIA EQUIPMENT CURRENT PRACTICE 1 Scope This Technical Report provides the result of a study of some of the graphical symbols for use on equipment standardized in IEC 60417 being primarily intended to: identify the equipment or a part of the equipment (e.g. a c
29、ontrol or display); indicate a functional state (e.g. on, off, alarm); designate connections (e.g. terminals, filling points for materials); provide information on packaging (e.g. identification of contents, instructions for handling); provide instruction for the operation of the equipment (e.g. lim
30、itations of use); in the focus of contemporary use of graphical symbols for use on multimedia equipment, and new possible meanings to be envisaged as well as new graphical symbols not yet standardized in IEC 60417. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively
31、referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. None. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document the f

SOURCE: IEC 62648:2012, 3.11 4 Current practice 4.1 General One of
35、the important expectation and function of the graphical symbols in IEC 60417 is to serve as a pool of standardized graphical symbols for use on equipment to be used, in accordance with the provisions given in IEC 80416-3:2002 and IEC 80416-3:2002/AMD1:2011, 4.4, in IEC publications following the rul
36、es given in ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2:2011, 6.6.5.6. The actual applications and use of such graphical symbols include some modifications to fit specific purposes, which are allowed in accordance with the provisions given in IEC 80416-3:2002 and IEC 80416-3:2002/AMD1:2011, Clause 6. To accommodate
37、any difficulties to follow the rules, a set of procedures which consitute a compromise are given in IEC 62648, in agreement with IEC Guide 108. In addition, as a result of quickly changing demand in industries such as digital cameras, multimedia, ICT and mobile equipment, there are new graphical sym
38、bols not yet standardized in IEC 60417. This Technical Report classifies some of these graphical symbols including icons and glyph images into two categories: a) Graphical symbols for control b) Graphical symbols for indication Some of the graphical representations shown on the right-hand columns of
39、 Table 1 and Table 2 are state of the art candidates for future standardization in IEC 60417. 4.2 Current practice for control Graphical symbols to identify controls of equipment in general are important and many graphical symbols have been standardized in IEC 60417 for the purpose of different cate
40、gories of equipment. Subclause 4.2 highlights the result of study on current practice of graphical symbols to identify the equipment or a part of equipment in the field of multimedia technology. Table 1 shows such graphical symbols for use on multimedia equipment to trigger one of the functionalitie
41、s and to change one function to another, as non-exhaustive examples.
