   A tech writer is asking me "backplane" or "backpan"?   
      
   The use is in describing PLCs and the PCB the function cards plug into.   
      
   His technical source--an engineer of the PLC manufacturer--insists the term   
   is "backpan".   
      
   I've only seen "backplane" but a net search does turn up uses of "backpan"   
   specifically with reference to PLCs.   
      
   What say y'all?   
      
   Thanks.
