Glossary

 

 

EMC

electromagnetic compatibility. Devices that meet EMC requirements can operate

 

within a system’s expected electromagnetic limits without error.

EMI

electromagnetic interference. EMI can cause an interruption, malfunction, or

 

disturbance in the performance of electronic equipment. It occurs when a source

 

electronically transmits a signal that interferes with other equipment.

EOS

end of segment. When more than one segment of I/O modules is used in an island,

 

an STB XBE 1000 EOS module is installed in the last position in every segment that

 

has an extension following it. The EOS module extends island bus communications

 

to the next segment.

Ethernet

A LAN cabling and signaling specification used to connect devices within a defined

 

area, e.g., a building. Ethernet uses a bus or a star topology to connect different

 

nodes on a network.0

Ethernet II

A frame format in which the header specifies the packet type, Ethernet II is the

 

default frame format for STB NIP 2212 communications.

 

 

F

fallback state

A safe state to which an Advantys STB I/O module can return in the event that its

 

communication connection fails.

fallback value

The value that a device assumes during fallback. Typically, the fallback value is

 

either configurable or the last stored value for the device.

FED_P

Fipio extended device profile. On a Fipio network, the standard device profile type

 

for agents whose data length is more than eight words and equal to or less than

 

thirty-two words.

Fipio

Fieldbus Interface Protocol (FIP). An open fieldbus standard and protocol that

 

conforms to the FIP/World FIP standard. Fipio is designed to provide low-level

 

configuration, parameterization, data exchange, and diagnostic services.

Flash memory

Flash memory is nonvolatile memory that can be overwritten. It is stored on a special

 

EEPROM that can be erased and reprogrammed.

FRD_P

Fipio reduced device profile. On a Fipio network, the standard device profile type for

 

agents whose data length is two words or less.
