Preface This document is an overall description about saving and restoring parameters in the 32-bit DriveWindow (version 2) for NT. This document is valid for version 2.0 Beta 7 and newer only. 1.1. Purpose Saving and restoring parameters in DriveWindow 2 is needed to make commissioning,maintenance, and debugging of drives and drive systems fast and easy. 1.2. Product DriveWindow 2 for NT is a 32-bit Windows program running under Windows NT 4.0 SP3 (ornewer) operating system in a x86 PC. 1.3. Definitions, Terminology and Abbreviations Application Program An application program (sometimes shortened to application) is anyprogram designed to perform a specific function directly for the useror, in some cases, for another application program.Application ProgramInterfaceAn application program interface (API - and sometimes spelledapplication programming interface) is the specific method prescribedby a computer operating system or by an application program by whicha programmer writing an application program can make requests ofthe operating system or another application.Backup The activity of copying files or databases so that they will be preservedin case of equipment failure or other catastrophe.Browse To view available items by looking through lists of folders, files, useraccounts, groups, domains, computers, etc.Click To press and release a mouse button quickly.Client An object that requests services from another object.COM An open architecture for cross-platform development of client/serverapplications based on object-oriented technology as agreed upon byDigital Equipment Corporation and Microsoft Corporation. TheComponent Object Model defines an interface (similar to an abstractbase class), IUnknown, from which all COM-compatible classes arederived.Computer A device that accepts information (in the form of digital data) andmanipulates it for some result based on a program or sequence ofinstructions on how data is to be processed.Default In computer technology, a default is a predesigned value or settingthat is used by a computer program when a value or setting is notspecified by the program user.  ABB Industry Oy   Drive Products & Systems   DRIVE WINDOW 2Technical Description   3AFE 00130808.DOC   Dept.   Project AC DRIVES   Status Date 26.Jan 2006   Author ERJANTI JYRKI   Status  APPROVED/ERJANTI JYRKI Revision   E   Page 4 / 18   Device In the context of computer technology, a device is a unit of hardware,outside or inside the case or housing for the essential computer(processor, memory, and data paths) that is capable of providing inputto the essential computer or of receiving output or of both.Downloading The transmission of a file from one computer system to another,usually smaller computer systemDrive Equipment that converts electric to mechanical power.Graphical User Interface A GUI is a graphical (rather than purely textual) user interface to acomputer.Hardware Hardware is the physical aspect of computers, telecommunications,and other information technology devices. The term arose as a way todistinguish the box and the electronic circuitry and components of acomputer from the program you put in it to make it do things.Link 1) Using hypertext, a link is a selectable connection from one word,picture, or information object to another.2) In telecommunications, a link is a physical (and, in some usages, alogical) connection between two points.Module In computers, in general, a separate unit of software or hardware.Network A series of points or nodes interconnected by communication paths.Networks can interconnect with other networks and containsubnetworks.Object A programming structure encapsulating both data and functionalitythat are defined and allocated as a single unit and for which the onlypublic access is through the programming structure's interfaces.OLE A way to transfer and share information between applications.OPC OLE for Process Control. An emerging software technology standard(http://www.opcfoundation.org/) that connects Windows-based processcontrol systems to hardware devices on the plant floor. Thistechnology provides a common interface to different hardware devices,allowing process control applications to communicate with broad set ofdevices.Operating System An operating system (sometimes abbreviated as OS ) is the programthat, after being initially loaded into the computer by a boot program,manages all the other programs in a computer. The other programsare called applications or application programs. The applicationprograms make use of the operating system by making requests forservices through a defined application program interface (API). Inaddition, users can interact directly with the operating system througha user interface such as a command language or a graphical userinterface (GUI).
