Product−specific terms and abbreviations
The following product−specific abbreviations are used in this
description:
Term/abbreviation Meaning
Aperture Opening through which light passes through the lens onto the image
sensor surface. The larger the opening or the aperture is, the more light
will reach the sensor. When the aperture opens, the depth of focus will be
reduced. The depth of focus increases the further the aperture is closed
(larger f−stop). Smaller aperture openings make longer exposure times
necessary. Shorter exposure times require larger aperture openings.
Auto MDI−X Recognizes the configuration of the other station and adapts the trans
mitter and receiver cables of a network connection automatically.
CheckKon Software package for configuration and commissioning
CheckOpti Software package for creating test programs
CMOS sensor Opto−electronic sensor which converts light signals into electric signals.

CP connection Socket or plug on the CP modules which allows the modules to be
interconnected using the CP cable.
CP node CP field bus node with/without field bus connection, to which the I/O
modules are connected.
CP master Collective term for modules with one or more CP connections to which
one CP string each can be connected. CP masters are the CPX−CP inter
face, CP field bus node, CPV Direct or CP interfaces.
CP modules Collective term for the various modules that can be integrated in a
CPsystem.
CP string Entirety of the CP modules and CP cables connected together to a
