The dimension of the gap of a head measured from one pole face to the other. In longitudinal recording, the gap length can be defined as the dimension of the gap in the direction of tape travel.
Industry:Software
The loss in output attributable to the finite gap length of the reproduce head. The loss increases as the wavelength decreases.
Industry:Software
The phenomenon of the gaps in a multitrack head not being in a straight line.
Industry:Software
This is due to head wear and is the bridging or shorting out of the record or reproduce gap as the result of flowing of the pole face material in the direction of tape motion.
Industry:Software
The dimension of the gap measured in the direction parallel to the head surface and pole faces. The gap width of the record head governs the track width. The gap widths of reproduce heads are sometimes made appreciably less than those of the record heads to minimize tracking errors.
Industry:Software
Gateways provide functional bridges between networks by receiving protocol transactions on a layer-by-layer basis from one protocol (SNA) and transforming them into comparable functions for the other protocol (OSI). In short, the gateway provides a connection with protocol translation between networks that use different protocols. Interestingly enough, gateways, unlike the bridge, do not require that the networks have consistent addressing schemes and packet frame sizes. Most proprietary gateways (such as IBM SNA gateways) provide protocol converter functions up through layer six of the OSI, while OSI gateways perform protocol translations up through OSI layer seven. See OSI Model.
Industry:Software
The metric unit of magnetic flux density equal to one Maxwell per square centimeter.
Industry:Software
A standard interface for control of electronic equipment. A connector on the back of the switcher frame or editor which allows remote control of the Auto Trans, DSK Mix, Fade to Black, or Panel Memory Function or Sequence on the switcher. Usually a contact closure (i.e., switch) which provides short to ground.
Industry:Software
A form of translator which allows the switcher to talk to other devices, i.e., ADO, and to be given instructions serially by devices such as Editors.
Industry:Software
The number of duplication steps between an original recording and a given copy. A second generation duplicate is a copy of the original master and a third generation duplicate is a copy of a copy of the original master, etc.
