See sections Security — Overview
(p. 92) and Signatures (p. 472).
Term. single-ended
A serial communication protocol. One-direction data only. Serial
communications between a serial sensor and the CR1000 may be simplex.
Reading list: simplex
(p. 528), duplex (p. 248), half-duplex (p. 517), and full-duplex
(p. 516).
Term. single-ended
Denotes a sensor or measurement terminal wherein the analog-voltage signal
is carried on a single lead and measured with respect to ground (0 V).
Term. skipped scans
Occur when the CRBasic program is too long for the scan interval. Skipped
scans can cause errors in pulse measurements.
Term. slow sequence
A usually slower secondary scan in the CRBasic program. The main scan has
priority over a slow sequence.
Term. SMTP
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. A TCP/IP application protocol.
Term. SNP
