Glossary
Term
Meaning
algorithm
a computational procedure
cycling power
turning the detector off and then powering it up again

digital signal processing
end-to-end test
the complete system, from detection through suppression, is tested
FireBusII
communications protocol used for transmitting data from a detector to
a Windows-based computer
FirePic
retrievable pre-fire data storage protocol, used for analysis and pos-
tulation of the cause of a fire
frequency domain
signal analysis based on frequency instead of time
IR
infrared; the wavelengths of light from approximately 700 nanometers
to 1 millimeter
Modbus
a serial communication protocol
nanometer
unit of measure equal to one one-billionth (10
-9
) of a meter; desig-
nated
nm
NC
normally closed (electrical short circuit, by default)
NO
normally open (electrical open circuit, by default)
non-volatile flash
memory
data stored on a chip that is not lost when the detector’s power is
cycled.

unit of measure equal to one one-millionth (10
-6
) of a meter and 1000
nanometers; designated

near-instantaneous analysis and response by a device, usually mea-
sured in milliseconds or microseconds
self-test
a test of all of a system’s components, performed automatically on
start-up and periodically during normal operation
time domain
signal analysis based on time
through-the-window
remote testing
testing a detector with a test lamp
UV
ultraviolet; the wavelengths of light from approximately 10 nanome-
ters to 400 nanometers.
wideband
a broad range of wavelengths within the infrared spectrum
