upload

Data is transferred from the controller to a programming or storage
device.

UVPROM

An Ultra-Violet light erasable Programmable Read Only Memory
module used to back-up, store, or transfer SLC 500 programs. The SLC
5/01 and SLC 5/02 processor can only read from a UVPROM. An
external PROM programmer is used to program (write to) the device.

voltage category

The nominal voltage used to describe the module.

watchdog timer

A timer that monitors a cyclical process and is cleared at the
conclusion of each cycle. If the watchdog runs past its programmed
time period, it causes a fault.

watts per point

The maximum heat dissipation that can occur in each field wiring
point when energized.

write

To send data to another device. For example, the processor writes
data to another device with a message write instruction.
