external devices to standardized PC ports
PC Personal computer (IPC - industrial personal computer)
PCI Peripheral components interconnect, standard of a PC-internal data
transmission process or physical plug-in unit connection (PCI slot)
progressive scan Here: Full-frame scan, principle of continuously scanning the sensor lines in
ascending order without distinguishing between even and odd sensor lines
(in contrast to the field scan)
region of interest see ROI
Register Place where device functions are found, e.g. in cameras, functionally and/or
logically associated device functions combined in a register set
Register set see Register
ROI Region of interest, that part of the full frame which is of interest to the user
RS-232 Line standard for transmitting and receiving data via a serial interface based
on the V.24 or V.28 standard
SOC System on chip, combination of large-scale integrated function units to form a
complete functional system , e.g. on an optical sensor, that comprises all
relevant function units, for a camera
SPS [German] ‘Speicherprogrammierbare Steuerung’, universal control unit used
in automation processes
subsampling Here: Method of scanning only every second sensor line or column, results in
halving the spatial resolution of an image
system on chip see SOC
Terminal Here: a program for the remote transmission of data (here: of camera
configuration commands) by ASCII-coded characters
Trigger unit Here: Functional unit that triggers camera-relevant functions (start of image
capturing, etc.), e.g. by feeding an external signal to the camera
UNIX Dominating operating system for work stations and mainframe computers
word Here: Data format comprising 2 bytes or 16 bits, value range: 2
