Glossary
The terms, definitions and abbreviations, used in this Operating Instruction are explained in brief:
- ASCII-character
American Standard Code of Information Interchange.
A standardized code
that assigns a certain character (letter, figure, control character) unambigu-
ously to each binary number. The 256 characters, which can be presented on
a monitor screen or a printer, are defined in the CCITT Code table NR. 5.
For example, the question mark ? corresponds to the hexadecimal value 3F.
- Hex character
hex = hexadecimal; Representation of numbers on the basis 16. Instead of
using binary 0 and 1 (Basis2) , four binary bits are combined and represent-
ed by one character 0 to 9 and A to F ( 10 to 15 ).
- ID
unambiguous number for identification of a transponder.
- Ident code
= ID
- ISO-FDX-transponder transponder characterized by ISO-Standard 11784/11785 , using the "full
duplex" method
- ISO-HDX-transponder transponder characterized by ISO-Standard 11784/11785 , using the "half
duplex" method
- PC
Personal Computer
- Transponder
mobile data storage unit used for identification of animals or items. These
storage units operate without a separate power supply (battery); they are
energized from the reading device by magnetic coupling.
- Transponder code
= ID
