 19 Customer ordering information:  Automatic distribution of
 20 documentation:  New sites are entitled to receive an "initial
 21 allotment" of manuals free of charge.  The allotment of free manuals is
 22 equivalent in value to five percent of the first month's rental fee, up
 23 to a maximum of $1000.
 24 
 25 In order to receive the initial allotment, the site sales
 26 representative must submit a Honeywell Publications Requisition Form
 27 (HIS 2808 (7/80)) to the Distribution Center.
 28 
 29 If the system registration number is specified on the requisition form
 30 (i.e., with the initial allotment request), the site will automatically
 31 receive two copies of every update (future addendum or revision) for
 32 the manuals requested.
 33 
 34 
 35 In the event that the system registration number is not included on the
 36 form, the site will receive only the initial allotment and no future
 37 updates.
 38 
 39 To receive manuals other than those in the site's initial allotment on
 40 an automatic basis, contact the site sales representative and request
 41 that a Honeywell Publications Requistion Form (HIS 2808 (7/80)) be
 42 submitted with the site's system registration number so that the site
 43 is registered to receive those manuals and all future updates to them.
 44 
 45 
 46 General distribution of documentation:  To order specific manuals
 47 (e.g., new manuals) in addition to those received with the initial
 48 allotment, the customer must submit a Purchase Order through Honeywell
 49 Customer Services (i.e., it is not necessary to submit the order
 50 through the site sales representative).  The address of Honeywell
 51 Customer Services is,

 53 Publications Services (MA06/MS01)
 54 Honeywell Information Systems Inc.
 55 47 Harvard Street
 56 Westwood, Massachusetts 02090

 60 
 61 Honeywell Customer Publications Order Forms are included in the back of
 62 the Honeywell Publications Catalog, Order Number AB81.  If a Customer
 63 Publication Order Form is not available on site, a letter (on company
 64 letterhead) will suffice.  If there are any questions, contact the
 65 Customer Services organization described above.
 66 
 67  Notes:  A "hotline" service is available for emergency orders -- call
 68          (toll-free) 1-800 343-6665.
 69 
 70          Updates for manuals ordered through Customer Services must be
 71          reordered separately when the site becomes aware of new
 72          versions to the manuals:  updates are not sent automatically.
 73 
 74 
 75 Employee ordering information:  Automatic distribution of
 76 documentation:  Honeywell employees may be registered to receive
 77 manuals (and updates to manuals) by product line, and/or category,
 78 and/or type.  Employees must submit a Honeywell Publication Form (Form
 79 Number AP13) to the Distribution Center.  The form must include the
 80 department number to be charged and the appropriate approval signature.
 81 
 82 New manuals, revisions, and addenda are sent on an automatic basis
 83 after the registration becomes effective (i.e., the employee will not
 84 automatically receive a base manual if the initial shipment contains
 85 addenda).
 86 
 87 
 88 General distribution of documentation:  To order specific manuals on an
 89 "as needed" basis, submit the Honeywell Publications Requisition Form
 90 (HIS 2808 (7/80)) to the Distribution Center.
 91 
 92  Notes:  A "hotline" service is available for emergency orders -- call
 93          (617) 392-5215.
 94 
 95          Updates to the manuals ordered "as needed" must also be
 96          ordered "as needed" (i.e., updates are not sent
 97          automatically).
 98 
 99 
100 Questions/comments/available manuals:  If there are any questions about
101 the distribution of manuals, contact the site sales representative, the
102 branch office servicing the site, or Honeywell Publications Services,
103 47 Harvard Street, Westwood MA 02090.
104 
105 If you have any comments (e.g., find an error) or have suggestions for
106 improvement to a manual, please use the "Technical Publications Remarks
107 Form" (or a copy of same); this form is found at the back of every
