Rockwell Automation, Inc. provides industrial automation power, control, and information solutions.
The “gain” of an analogue input or output is the scale factor that provides the nominal conversion relationship. Typically, this is the slope of the line when analogue voltage or current is plotted versus the corresponding digital values. Gain error is the deviation of the scale factor or slope of the line from the ideal or nominal gain value. Gain error is expressed in percent of the input or output value.
Industry:Automation
1) A quantitative expression of the output of a device or system as a function of the input. 2) On a communication link, a signal of a condition such as the acknowledgment of a message being received.
Industry:Automation
A partition or separation used for the insulation or isolation of electric circuits or electric arcs (as defined in NEMA Standard Pub. No. ICS 2, 1988).
Industry:Automation
Fastening components built to stay in position after disassembly to enhance ease of re-assembly.
Industry:Automation
The vertical movement of data on a display screen caused by the dropping of one line of displayed data for each new line added at the opposite end.
Industry:Automation
A battery or set of batteries that will provide power to memory only when the main power source is off.
Industry:Automation
A simplified drawing showing components as boxes or other simple shapes, and possibly using a single line to represent several interconnections to show basic functions and relationships.
Industry:Automation
The 2’s complement of the 8-bit sum (modulo-256 arithmetic sum) of all data bytes in a transmission block. It provides a means of checking the accuracy of each message transmission.
Industry:Automation
1) A rung-output instruction that continuously controls the state of the output. Whenever the rung changes state (to true or not true), the output turns on or off. 2) Contrasted with a retentive output instruction that only controls the output state when the rung is true
