Section 11. Glossary
Term: ESS
Environmental Sensor Station
Term: excitation
Application of a precise voltage, usually to a resistive bridge circuit.
Term: execution interval
See scan interval
(p. 513).
Term: execution time
Time required to execute an instruction or group of instructions. If the
execution time of a program exceeds the Scan() Interval, the program is
executed less frequently than programmed and the Status table SkippedScan
(p. 472) field will increment.
Term: expression

Field
Final-storage data tables are made up of records and fields. Each row in a
table represents a record and each column represents a field. The number of
fields in a record is determined by the number and configuration of output
processing instructions that are included as part of the DataTable()
declaration.
Term: FFT
Fast Fourier Transform. A technique for analyzing frequency-spectrum
data.
Term: File Control
File Control is a feature of LoggerNet, PC400 and RTDAQ
datalogger
support software
(p. 86). It provides a view of the CR800 file system
and a menu of file management commands:
Delete facilitates deletion of a specified file
Send facilitates transfer of a file (typically a CRBasic program file) from
PC memory to CR800 memory.
