Hi all,
Could some one explain me the difference between MOS & POS

[latexman]

Since you did not spell it out, I'll take a shot at it.

 

MOS - Mom Over Shoulder (Mom looking over my shoulder at my computer/phone/etc.)

POS - Parent(s) Over Shoulder (Parent(s) looking over my shoulder at my computer/phone/etc.)

 

The acronym finder I used had 115 meanings for MOS!  Please spell out acronyms in their first use.

 

Btw, I have/had 5 teenagers and this was the first use for MOS I recognized in the acronym finder

Firstly thanks for your replay,
MOS: maintain over signal
But MOS I ASK ABOUT?
THANKS AGAIN

[latexman]

When I googled "maintain over signal", I got "No results found for "maintain over signal"".

 

So, what is POS?   Maybe I'll have better luck with that.

MOS : We use it like "over ride" on a signal , like not to shutdown a furnace when it's pump is stopped. ..
So there is another expression CALLED MOS I don't know, and asking about?

MOS is an acronym for Maintenance Override Switch that it is used to override a switch (e.g. level switch, temperature switch,...) for maintenance like flushing or replacement.

 

POS is an acronym for Process Override Switch; this switch can be used during start up of a machine to override a pressure switch, for example, that will prevent a compressor from starting.
