Glossary
Term Denitions
ActiveConguration Thecongurationthatthesystemiscurrentlyusing.
ADC Analog-to-digital converter
Calibration
The factory-supplied data used by Ethernet Axia sensor so it can report accurate
sensorreadings.Calibrationsapplytoaspecicloadingrange.
CGI
CommonGatewayInterface(CGI)isthemethodofusingwebURLstocommunicate
data and parameters back to a web device.
Complex Loading Any force or torque load that is not purely in one axis.
Conguration
User-denedsettingsthatincludewhichforceandtorqueunitsarereportedand
which calibration is to be used.
Control Panel
A feature on a personal computer operating system where the user can adjust
system settings.
Coordinate Frame See Point of Origin.
Data Rate How fast data can be output over the network.
DHCP
DynamicHostCongurationProtocol(DHCP)isanautomaticmethodforEthernet
equipment to obtain an IP address. The Ethernet Axia system can obtain its IP
address using DHCP on networks that support this protocol.
DINT Signeddoubleinteger(32bit)
ENABL Boolean that uses Enabled to represent 1 and Disabled to represent 0
Ethernet A family of computer networking technologies commonly used in local area networks.
Fieldbus
A generic term referring to any one of a number of industrial computer networking
standards. Examples include: Ethernet, CAN, Modbus, and PROFINET.
FT or F/T Force and Torque.
F
xy
The resultant force vector comprised of components F
x
and F
y
.
HEXn Hexadecimal number of nbits,prexedwith0x
HTTP GET Method
Astandardandcommonmethodthatausercanrequestdatafromaspecied
resource such as a sensor. HTTP works as a request-response protocol between
client(webbrowser)andserver(thesensor).
Hysteresis
A source of measurement error caused by the residual effects of
previously applied loads.
INT Signedinteger(16bit)
Interface Plate
A separate plate that attaches the sensor to another surface. Interface plates are
often used if the bolt pattern on the MAP or TAP doesn’t match the bolt pattern on the
robot arm or customer tooling. The interface plate has two bolt patterns on either side
of the plate. One side is for the MAP or TAP. The other side is for the robot arm or
customer tooling.
IP64
Ingress protection rating “64” designates protection against dust and splashing of
water. An IP64 rating does not guarantee protection when a user submerges a device
inwateroranytypeofuid.
IP Address
AnIPAddress(InternetProtocolAddress)isanelectronicaddressassignedtoan
Ethernet device so that it may send and receive Ethernet data. IP addresses may be
either manually selected by the user or automatically assigned by the DHCP protocol.
Java™
Java is a programming language often used for programs on web pages. The
Ethernet Axia demo is a Java application. Java is a registered trademark of Sun
Microsystems, Inc.
MAC
Media Access Controller is the hardware that implements the lowest sub-layer of the
data link layer.
MAC Address
MACAddresses(MediaAccessControlAddresses)aretheuniqueaddresses
given to every Ethernet device when it is manufactured, to be used as an electronic
Ethernet serial number.
