DNS
Abbreviation of Domain Name System.
A server that translates domain names to
IP addresses, or IP addresses to domain
names. A DNS is identified by an IP
address. Also called a “DNS server”.
Ethernet
A method of networking computers in a
Local Area Network (LAN). Developed by
Xerox Corporation, Ethernet has become a
very popular means of creating LANs.
Hard Disk
A high-volume, digitally encoded storage
device used in computers and other digital
devices. By combining a magnetic disk and
drive mechanism into an integrated unit,
hard disks are capable of very fast data
writing and reading and boast superb data
search capabilities.
ID
ID3 is information (such as the track name
or artist name) that is recorded in an MP3
file. The ID3 tag is used by this unit to
display track information for MP3 files.
Internet
A communication network linking
computers around the world. The Internet
supports many services, including email
and search engines.
Internet Service Provider
A company that offers connection service
to the Internet.
IP address
IP addresses usually comprise four groups
of up to three digits each, separated by a
period (such as 192.168.239.1). All devices
on a network must have an IP address.
ISO0
A standard of the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO)
that defines the file system of CD-ROM
media.
LAN
Abbreviation of Local Area Network.
LAN is a general name for networks set
up for communication among devices
including computers, printers, and fax
machines in relatively small areas such as
offices or buildings.
Linear PCM
Linear Pulse Code modulation, a digital,
non-compression audio coding system
used in this unit for recording at 16 bits
and a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz (same as
the standard for audio CDs).
MP
Abbreviation of MPEG-1 Audio Layer3.
It is a standard for audio file compression
determined by the MPEG (Motion Picture
Experts Group), an ISO (International
Organization for Standardization) working
group. It enables compression of audio files
to about 1/10 of the data size of a standard
compact disc. Since the MP3 encoding
algorithm is disclosed, there are various
encoders/decoders that are compliant
with this standard. The MP3 standard is
therefore widely used in the computer
field.
MSC
MSC refers to the USB Mass Storage Class
in this unit.
MSC is a data transfer protocol defined
by the USB Implementers Forum for the
transfer of data via the USB to external
devices. It is used in USB hard disks and
USB memories, etc.
