Terminology Description
ACE Application Control Environment
Adapter A communication device which connects to the EtherNet/IP network to
serve data from a set of devices or modules underneath it. Adapter
typically supports I/O connectivity from Scanners via implicit
EtherNet/IP connections.
Assembly A set of data passed between a Originator and a Target after an implicit
I/O connection has been established on an EtherNet/IP network.
CDA Control Data Access
ControlEdge
Builder
A integrated configuration tool to design, configure, program and
maintain ControlEdge controllers.
CPM Control Processor Module
DTM Device Type Manager
EDS Electronic Data Sheet. A text file which specifies all the properties of an
EtherNet/IP device necessary for a Scanner module to communicate
with it. EDS files my be used in the first step of creating an I/O module
or device type for interfacing to an EtherNet/IP device.
EPM Expansion Processor Module
Expansion
I/O rack
I/O rack with EPM installed
Expansion
IOM
I/O Module (IOM) external to the CPM that expand the I/O capacity
FDAP Field Device Access Point
FDM Field Device Manager
FTE Fault Tolerant Ethernet
HMI Human Machine Interface
IOTA Input Output Termination Assembly
Left End
Plate
Left end plate is used only in multi-row 2020 I/O systems. It starts a new
row of IOMs and provides connections for 24Vdc supply to the row
along with I/O Network connections.
Local I/O
rack
I/O rack with CPM installed (non-redundant)
Mixed IOM Mixed input/output module, which supports DC current or voltage type
