Glossary
ASCII
American Standard Code for Information Interchange. For the ASCII
protocol, the instrument receives and transmits messages in ASCII, with all
command strings to the instrument terminated by a carriage return. Replies
from the instrument are terminated with a line-feed and a carriage-return.
IAPWS
International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam
IAPWS-IF97
IAPWS Industrial Formulation for the Thermodynamic Properties of Water
and Steam. IAPWS-IF97 replaces the previous industrial standard IFC-67.
IrDA
The Infra-red Developers Association is a group of computer and software
manufactures who have agreed on a format for communication among
infrared devices.
Modbus RTU
The Modbus protocol is a message structure for communications between
controllers and devices regardless of the type of network. In RTU (remote
terminal unit) mode, each 8-bit byte in a message contains two 4-bit
hexadecimal characters. This mode has greater character density than
ASCII and allows better data throughput than ASCII for the same baud rate.
Normalised
Input
A normalised input ranges from 0 to 1.000. For 4-20mA input, the signal is
set to 0 at 4mA and the signal is set to 1.000 at 20mA.
Passive Output
Signal
Requires an external power supply.
