Glossary
Dynamic mode
In dynamic mode, the data carrier moves past the read/write device at a traversing rate
which depends on the configuration. Various checking mechanisms ensure error-free data
transfer even under extreme environmental conditions. A serial connection (up to 1000 m) is
used to connect the read/write device directly to an interface module, PC, or any other
system.
Electromagnetic compatibility
Electromagnetic compatibility is the ability of an electrical or electronic device to operate
satisfactorily in an electromagnetic environment without affecting or interfering with the
environment over and above certain limits.
EMC Directive
Guidelines for electromagnetic compatibility This guideline relates to any electrical or
electronic equipment, plant or system containing electric or electronic components.
Equipotential bonding
Potential differences between different parts of a plant can arise due to the different design
of the plant components and different voltage levels. It is necessary to compensate for these
differences by equipotential bonding: this is done by combining the equipotential bonding
conductors of power components and non-power components on a centralized equalizing
conductor.
ESD Directive
Directive for handling ESDs.
