A coil is a single bit in the memory that can be accessed using Modbus:<br />
read or write access with FC 1, 5, 15. Depending on the used Modbus<br />
function code a single coil or several coils lying in succession can be<br />
accessed.<br />
A file containing configuration information about a device being a part of a<br />
network that can be read out by masters for system configuration. Device<br />
Description Files use various formats which depend on the communication<br />
system. Often these formats are based on XML such as EDS_files or<br />
GSDML_files. Contains configuration information<br />
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol<br />
This is a protocol simplifying the configuration of IP networks by<br />
automatically assigning IP addresses.<br />
A “Discrete Input” (as defined in the Modbus terminology) is a single bit in<br />
the memory which can be accessed using Modbus (read with FC 2).<br />

A communication system for industrial <strong>Ethernet</strong> designed and developed by<br />
Beckhoff Automation GmbH.<br />
A networking technology used both for office and industrial communication<br />
via electrical or optical connections. It has been developed and specified by<br />
the Intel, DEC and XEROX. It provides data transmission with collision<br />
control and allows various protocols. As <strong>Ethernet</strong> is not necessarily capable<br />
for real-time application, various real-time extensions have been<br />
developed.<br />
A communication system for industrial <strong>Ethernet</strong> designed and developed by<br />
Rockwell. It partly uses the CIP (Common Industrial Protocol).<br />
A communication system for industrial <strong>Ethernet</strong> designed and developed by<br />
B&R. It partly uses CANopen technologies.<br />
