data acquisition & control unit

You probably want to avoid substituting an EN initialism for UAC because all the obvious ones have been claimed as company names or proprietary product names (see links). Just spell it out and keep it lowercase.

Also, FR 'UAC' should probably be 'Unité d'acquisition ET de commande'.
