Glossary Application An application is a program which builds directly on the MS-DOS / Windows operating system. Applications on your PG or PC, for example, are STEP 7, STEP 7-Micro/WIN. ATAPI CD–ROM Drive AT-Bus Attachment Packet Interface (connected to AT bus) CD-ROM drive Automation device (AG) The programmable logical controllers (PLC) of the SIMATIC S5 systems consist of a central controller, one or more CPUs, and various other modules (e.g. I/O modules).
Glossary BEEP code If the BIOS detects a boot error, it outputs an audible warning based on the current test result Boot diskette A diskette that contains a boot sector and an initial loader for the operating system. This can be used to load the operating system from the disk. Booting Start or restart of the computer. Within the boot sequence, the operating system is transferred from the system data carrier to RAM. Cache High-speed access buffer for interim storage (buffering) of requested data.
Glossary Controller Integrated hardware and software controllers that control the functions of certain internal or peripheral devices (for example, the keyboard controller). Device configuration The configuration of a programming device contains information on hardware and device options, such as memory configuration, drive types, monitor, network address, etc.
Glossary Ethernet Local network (bus structure) for text and data communication with a transfer rate of 10 Mbps. Formatting Basic partitioning of memory space on a magnetic data carrier into track and segments. Formatting deletes all data on a data carrier. All data carriers must be formatted prior to their first use. Gender changer Using the gender changer (25-pin / 25-pin), the COM1/V24/AG port of the SIMATIC PC family can be converted to the usual 25-pin male connector.
Glossary IT networks Networks for Information technology LAN Local Area Network is a local network that consists of a group of computers and other devices that are distributed across a relatively restricted range and are linked with communication cables. The devices connected to a LAN are called nodes. The purpose of networks is the mutual use of files, printers or other resources. Legacy USB support Support of USB devices (e.g. mouse, keyboard) on the USB ports without driver.
Glossary Motherboard The motherboard is the core of the computer. Here, data are processed and stored, and interfaces and device I/Os are controlled and managed. Operating system Summarizing term describing all functions for program execution, allocation of system resources to the various user programs, and for controlling and monitoring consistency of the operating mode in cooperation with the hardware (e.g. Windows Embedded). Packet writing The CD-RW is used as a diskette medium.
Glossary Pixel PixElement (picture point). The pixel represents the smallest element that can be reproduced on-screen or on a printer. PROFIBUS / MPI Process Field Bus (standard bus system for process applications) RAM The RAM is the total a read/write memory in a PG/PC. Recovery CD Contains the tools for setting up the hard disks and the Windows operating system. Remove module bracket The module bracket is used to fasten modules and ensure safe contact and transport.
Glossary Serial interface Data is transmitted one bit at a time via a serial port. They are used in all applications requiring minimum wiring and data transfer across greater distances. Session at once In session at once, the CD can be written to both with an audio session and a data session. The two sessions are written to at once (as in disc at once). SETUP (BIOS Setup) A program in which information about the device configuration (that is, the configuration of the hardware on the PC/PG) is defined.
Glossary Windows Microsoft Windows is a multitasking graphical user interface. Windows provides a standard graphical interface based on drop-down menus, windowed regions on the screen, and allows operation with a pointer device such as a mouse. WLAN Wireless LAN or wireless LAN is a local network that transmits data via radio waves, infrared light or another wireless technology. Wireless LAN is mainly used in connection with mobile computers in the office or in factory environments.
