Rockwell Automation, Inc. provides industrial automation power, control, and information solutions.
The rate at which bits or words are transferred from one internal element to another.
Industry:Automation
1) I/O connected to a processor across a serial link. With a serial link, remote I/O can be located long distances from the processor. 2) Contrasted with local I/O
Industry:Automation
1) Pertaining to the order of bytes within a word, such that the most-significant byte has the lowest address (big end first). 2) Contrasted with little-endian
Industry:Automation
A relative movement between interacting mechanical parts, resulting from looseness.
Industry:Automation
1) A bar-code scanner/decoder combination that must be activated or attended by an operator. 2) Contrasted with unattended system
Industry:Automation
A measurement of the time phase difference between the voltage and current in an ac circuit. It is represented by the cosine of the angle of this phase difference. Power factor is the ratio of real power (in watts) to apparent power (in volt-amperes).
Industry:Automation
An interface device for serial/parallel conversion, buffering, and adding check bits.
Industry:Automation
The rate at which data is transmitted across a link (in bit/s).
Industry:Automation
1) In a programmable controller system, a module (interchangeable plug-in item within a larger assembly) that interfaces directly through I/O circuits to the sensors and actuators of the machine/process. 2) Contrasted with I/O block.
