Terminology
This table defines the terms that are used in this publication.
Acronym | Full Term | Definition |
|---|---|---|
BP | Backplane Power | Power that is generated from module power by the adapter and expansion power, and
supplied to the I/O system through the backplane. |
CIP™ | Common Industrial Protocol | An industrial communication protocol that is used by Logix 5000® based automation
systems on EtherNet/IP™, ControlNet®, and DeviceNet® communication networks. |
CIP Sync™ | Common Industrial Protocol Synchronization | CIP Sync provides the increased control coordination needed for control
applications where absolute time synchronization is vital to achieve real-time
synchronization between distributed intelligent devices and systems. |
COP | Copy File | COP is a command in PLC programming. This command copies the files from one
memory location to another within the system. |
CPS | Synchronous Copy File | CPS is a command in PLC programming. This command copies the files from one
memory location to another within the system synchronously, which means the
operation completes fully before the PLC continues with the next task. |
LA | Local Actuator - Power | Local Actuator Power supplied through the RTB. |
MB | Mounting Base | A device that provides data and power connections from the backplane to the
installed module. |
MP | Module Power | Power that is supplied to the adapter and expansion power. |
ODVA | Open DeviceNet Vendor Association | A nonprofit association of vendors that are established for the promotion of CIP
networks. |
PL | Performance Level | ISO 13849-1 safety rating |
RPI | Requested Packet Interval | Time interval (usually in milliseconds) that users are requesting their data be
exchanged at |
RTB | Removable Terminal Block | A component that is used for wiring field devices to. |
SA | Sensor Actuator - Power | Sensor Actuator Power (24V DC nominal) for the field devices. |
SELV | Safety Extra Low Voltage | An electrical system where the voltage level is considered safe under normal or
fault conditions, as defined in the EN and IEC standards. |
SIL | Safety Integrity Level | A relative level of risk reduction that is provided by a safety function, or to
specify a target level of risk reduction. |
SRT | Safety Reaction Time | The input safety reaction time is the time from when the signal changes on an
input terminal to when safety data is sent to the safety controller. The output safety reaction time is the time from when safety data is received
from the safety controller to when the output terminal changes state. |
VCL | Voltage Clamp Low | The low threshold for limiting the voltage level. |
XT | Extreme Environment | Modules with XT at the end of their catalog numbers have design considerations
and conformal coating that add a degree of protection for harsh, corrosive gas
environments. |
