Rockwell Automation, Inc. provides industrial automation power, control, and information solutions.
Information about a specific entity (an I/O chassis, an I/O module, an I/O). For example, an I/O definition file may contain a tag (definition) for each I/O. Each tag may consist of several items, each defining some aspect of the entity. At a minimum, a tag must include a tag name (a symbolic name) to establish that symbolic address to represent the physical or logical address of the data.
Industry:Automation
Using a direct communication link to transmit part programs from a computer to a numerical control system.
Industry:Automation
1) In a communication network, an ability granted to a station in regard to accessing another station. For example, one station may grant read-only privileges for a certain area of its memory to a second station; and it may grant both read and write privileges for that same area of its memory to a third station. 2) In software use, an ability granted to a user in regard to accessing functions. For example, one user may be granted the privilege to change the configuration and another user may be granted only the privilege to monitor the configuration values.
Industry:Automation
The process of detecting, locating, and correcting errors in hardware or software.
Industry:Automation
Invisible light radiation starting at a wavelength of 690 nm (6900 A).
Industry:Automation
When a permanent-magnet dc motor is subjected to high current pulses, the magnets may become slightly demagnetized, resulting in a lower torque constant.
Industry:Automation
A marker of some type used in processing or interpreting information; a signal indicating the existence or status of a particular condition. Flags are used in such areas as communication, programming, and information processing. A flag can be a code, embedded in data, that identifies some condition, such as the beginning or end of a word or a message; or it can be one or more bits set internally by hardware or software to indicate an event of some type, such as an error or the result of a comparison of values.
Industry:Automation
1) In software terms, a register or group of registers used for temporary storage of data, to compensate for transmission rate differences between the transmitter and receiving device. 2) In hardware terms, an isolating circuit used to avoid the reaction of one circuit with another.
Industry:Automation
Logic in which the state of each output is controlled only by the states of inputs and the switching-transition delays encountered in the logic path. Compare sequential logic
