Glossary
Earth/Ground
A conducting path between an electric circuit or equipment and ground for
safety or EMC reduction.
Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) Files
EDS files are simple text files that are used by network configuration tools
such as the RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software to describe products so that
you can easily commission them on a network. EDS files describe a product
device type, revision, and configurable parameters, and can be uploaded from
the module using RSLinx software.
frequency
The repetition rate of a periodic event, usually expressed in cycles per second
(Hz) or revolutions per minute (rpm), or multiples of a rotational speed
(orders).
Help window
A window that contains help topics that describe the operation of a program.
These topics may include:
• An explanation of a command.
• A description of the controls in a dialog box or property page.
• Instructions for a task.
• Definition of a term.
high pass filter
A filter that excludes all frequencies below a defined frequency. It allows, or
passes, frequencies above the defined frequency. It is useful for removing low
frequency signal components that would dominate the signal.
low pass filter
A low pass filter excludes frequencies above a defined frequency. It allows, or
passes, frequencies below the defined frequency. It is useful as an anti-aliasing
filter.
noise
Any component of a transducer output signal that does not represent the
variable intended to be measured.
