1.5 Glossary of Terms and Abbreviations
This Glossary provides definition for terms used in the Micro-PWC Installation and Setup Guide. Where
alternate usage is defined in the Glossary, the first listed term is considered the preferred usage.
Active Window. The active window is the window with keyboard focus, which receives all keyboard input,
regardless of pointer location. What is typed appears in the active window. If there is no active window,
what is typed is lost. There can be only one active window at a time on a Micro-PWC system monitor.
Area. A functional partition of the Process. Each Micro-DCI network can be assigned to an Area. Micro-
PWC system functions can then be assigned by Area.
Atom. A single data element in the global database. Atoms can exist in various forms, including (but not
limited to) a single bit (e.g., Auto/Manual), a floating point number, a tagname or a multi-character legend;
there is no pre-defined limit to the size of an atom. See also Module.
Banner. A header page which precedes a printout, which contains identifying information. This is espe-
cially useful when the user initiating the printout is not in the immediate vicinity of the printer.
Button. A graphical object in a window that has a three dimensional appearance and acts as a pushbut-
ton. When the user selects or "presses" the button (mouse cursor is placed on button and mouse button is
pressed), its three dimensional appearance inverts, giving the illusion that the button has been pressed.
When the user releases the button, the button appearance returns to normal.
Cancel Button. A pushbutton in some windows which closes the window without implementing any
changes.
Cascading Menu. A submenu which provides selections that amplify the parent selection on a pull-down
or pop-up menu.
