112 Glossary
A
Alternate path
The path specified by LTEP when the “alternate path” bit is set.
C
Channel
An RF or PLC frequency.
CQA
Channel Quality Assessment – algorithm that maintains statistics for all RF
channels to support FAA.
D
Downstream [RF] channel
The channel which a device normal listens to on RF waiting for a
downstream message.
Downstream message
A message (for example, request) going from the Segment Controller to a
target device.
F
FAA
Frequency Agility Algorithm – algorithm that chooses the best RF receive
channel to ensure good RF communications.
L
LTEP – LonTalk Enhanced Proxy
The repeating scheme used by the Segment Controller over PLC.
N
Normal path
The path specified by LTEP when the “alternate path” bit is not set.
P
Path
A means for getting from point A to point B which could include a specific
carrier frequency, specific modulation scheme or whatever. This name is
historical and not very accurate (since path would more typically be a route
as opposed to mode of conveyance).
