Event:
A trigger indicating that a data value is out of range, a device has
changed state or a waveform has been generated. The PXG600E supports
native device events, user-defined events and waveforms.
Gateway Address:
Gateways that connect two IP-based networks, like TCP/IP
with IPX/SPX, have two IP addresses, one on each network. An address like
192.168.1.xxx is a Local Area Network address, and is the address to which
traffic is sent from the LAN. The other IP address is the Wide Area Network
address; this is the address to which traffic is sent coming from the WAN.
When this is the Internet, that address is usually assigned by an ISP.
HTML:
HTML, short for HyperText Markup Language, is the predominant
markup language for the creation of web pages. It provides a means to
describe the structure of text-based information in a document — by
denoting certain text as headings, paragraphs, lists, and so on — and to
supplement that text with interactive forms, embedded images, and other
objects.
HTTP:
Hypertext Transfer Protocol is a method used to transfer or convey
information on the World Wide Web. Its original purpose was to provide a
way to publish and retrieve HTML pages.
Ia, Ib, Ic:
Phase currents for phases a, b and c respectively
INCOM:
Eaton proprietary communication protocol (Industrial
Communication Network)
INCOM Device:
Device that supports INCOM protocol
IP:
The Internet Protocol (IP) is a data-oriented protocol used for
communicating data across a packet-switched internetwork.
IP Address:
An IP Address (Internet Protocol Address) is a unique address
that certain electronic devices use in order to identify and communicate with
each other on a computer network utilizing the Internet Protocol standard
(IP) — in simpler terms, a computer address. Any participating network
device — including routers, computers, time-servers, printers, Internet fax
machines, and some telephones — can have their own unique address.
