Micro-outage (or micro-interruption) - Total loss in the supply of power for 10 ms.
Closed-Circuit Voltage (CCV) - The potential or voltage of a battery when it is discharging or charging.
RS422A (Recommended standard RS422A) - Standard RS232C is sufficient for transmissions in a normal environment. For transmissions in a disturbed environment or over long distances, standard RS422A offers a differential operation option, with a balanced voltage, ensuring far superior performance. What is more, it can be used for multipoint links, with generally up to ten connection points (one sender and up to ten receivers).
RS485 (Recommended standard RS485) - This standard is similar to RS422A except that the number of possible links is greater and up to 32 senders may be interconnected to as many receivers. This system is particularly designed for local-area networks.
Power Surge - Voltage above 110% of rated RMS voltage for one or more cycles.
Voltage Depression - An abnormal drop in voltage below expected values during the discharge of a battery.
Short-Circuit Current (SCC) - The initial value of the current obtained from a battery in a circuit of negligible resistance.
