TERM1
A terminator board for the Pamux bus. The final Pamux brain board on the bus must be
terminated with a TERM1 or TERM2 terminator board.
TERM2
A terminator board for the Pamux bus, identical to the TERM1 in size and function. The only
difference between the boards is that the TERM2 offers lower line impedance than the TERM1.
This may prove useful when using a cable that differs from recommended specifications.
thermocouple
A temperature sensor that includes a junction of two different metals. Temperature can be
derived from the voltage produced at the contact point of the metals.
UCA4
A general-purpose adapter card used to connect any TTL device to the Pamux bus. Its purpose is
to allow a user to build a custom interface to a Pamux system.
watchdog
A process that monitors a system for activity and registers an error if a set interval has elapsed.
