Glossary of Terms

API

Application Program Interface

Backplane

Refers to the electrical interface, or bus, to which modules connect when inserted

into the rack. The module communicates with the control processor(s) through

the processor backplane.

BIOS

Basic Input Output System. The BIOS firmware initializes the module at power

up, performs self-diagnostics, and provides a DOS-compatible interface to the

console and Flashes the ROM disk.

Byte

8-bit value

CIP

Control and Information Protocol. This is the messaging protocol used for

communications over the ControlLogix backplane. Refer to the ControlNet

Specification for information.

Connection

A logical binding between two objects. A connection allows more efficient use of

bandwidth, because the message path is not included after the connection is

established.

Consumer

A destination for data.

Controller

The PLC or other controlling processor that communicates with the module

directly over the backplane or via a network or remote I/O adapter.

DLL

Dynamic Linked Library
