ID number – Component ID and tour ID numbers are used primarily in the
permission tabs to identify one component or sequence from another
in row and column style. Since logical and local numbers are not
necessarily unique or consecutive, and the permission grids must be
displayed as consecutive, unique numbers, MPU955A Admin
Console automatically generates this number in consecutive order.
Upon adding components or tours, the system will automatically
assign the next available number.
Internet Protocol (IP) address – A unique 32-bit identifier for a specific
computer or other device (such as a printer) on a TCP/IP network. IP
addresses are in dotted decimal form, with each of the four address
fields assigned a value from 0 to 255. Example: 128.127.050.224
keyboard – When not referring to the keyboard part of a PC, a keyboard in
the context of an NSS could be another name for a controller. See
system controller.
keyboard controller – Usually a controller. See controller.
local monitor number – One of a set of numbers assigned to the monitors
within an area, which map onto the system's internal monitor
numbering plan. An operator selects a monitor by local number.
location – A name assigned to an area by an NSS administrator to help users
locate components in the system.
logical camera number – A decimal number, within the range 1 to 99999,
assigned by an NSS administrator to enable users to select one or
more camera views. For example, while logical camera numbers
885001, 885002, 885003, 885004, 885005, etc. could be assigned the
main public space at 885 Park Avenue, 34001, 34002, 34003, 34004,
etc. could be for another area, such as airline boarding gate 34.
logical number – A number assigned to a component from the point of view
of the system. See also ID number.
logical output number – A decimal number within the range 1 to 99999,
which uniquely identifies an alarm output to the system. A user will
use this number when selecting an output. The system administrator
assigns logical output numbers.
main CPU – The central processing unit of an NSS (Network Security
System) operating in the "active" mode, providing centralized
control of the entire system. It may be backed up by a redundant
CPU operating in standby mode, and capable of taking over at any
instant upon instruction from the management switch.
management switch – A device that monitors the system's main processing
node (main CPU). Upon detecting a failure, the management switch
directs the redundant CPU to take control of the system.
MCPU – See main CPU.
