Browser Versions

The TycoElectronics.com web site supports the most recent version and one version back of Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox on Microsoft Windows based systems. This means that although the site may work fine on other browsers, it will work consistently and reliably on:

Browser Settings

Enable JavaScript

JavaScript is a programming language that allows web pages to interact with the content of the page. TycoElectronics.com uses JavaScript to enhance the web browsing experience in ways such as validating the information entered on a form or allowing a web page to update without having to get additional information from the web server.

In modern web browsers, JavaScript scripts are run in a restricted “sandbox” environment that isolates them from the rest of the operating system. Scripts are permitted access only to data in the current document or closely related documents (generally those from the same site as the current document). No access is granted to the local file system, the memory space of other running programs, or the operating system’s networking layer. Containment of this kind is designed to prevent malfunctioning or malicious scripts from wreaking havoc in the user’s environment.

Some portions of this site rely heavily on JavaScript for proper operations. Therefore, for proper operation, you should have JavaScript enabled in your web browser.

Enable Cookies

Cookies are small pieces of information stored on your system. These cookies allow a web site to communicate information between pages in a browsing session or to store information, such as your personal browsing preferences or account numbers, to be used between browsing sessions.

Cookies do not allow web sites to gather personal information about your or your computer. Cookies from one web site cannot be accessed from another and cookies cannot be used to transmit computer viruses to your system.

Although cookies are not required for using most of TycoElectronics.com, they are used to enhance your web browsing experience and should be enabled. If, however, you are a registered user, you must have cookies enabled to use the utilities to which you have been granted access.

Browser Plug-ins

A plug-in is an additional program that must be installed on your computer in order to view particular kinds of information available through a web page. In general, TycoElectronics.com attempts to avoid the requirement of plug-ins to view our web pages.

Install Adobe Acrobat Reader

However, if you wish to view on-line documents stored in PDF format (such as drawings, specifications, or product information flyers), you will most likely need to have a recent version of Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your system. The most recent version can be acquired from the Adobe Reader home page.

This list is temporary. The list will not be viewable on another computer and will be deleted within 30 days.

If your browser cookies are cleared, your temporary list will be lost. You can save this list and get all of the My Part List features by becoming a registered user of the Tyco Electronics web site.
