HOW TO ADJUST SENSOR DWELL TIME TO AVOID CHATTER Every device has an inherent dwell time for data collection, but the effects of dwell time can vary, depending on the type of data stream traffic that the application is producing and how the data is being transmitted.

SHIELDED AND GROUNDED INDUSTRIAL ETHERNET Grounding of the shield is necessary, so shielded eight-position-eight-contact (8P8C) connectors are needed for termination of shielded twisted pair (STP).
