What is the difference between the absolute and relative measurement in DS3 light grids?

DataSensor Sensors FAQs Infra Photoelectric Area Color Laser...
The absolute measurement provides a voltage signal proportional to the last optic interrupted and can be useful, for example, with objects presenting holes or openings. The relative measurement provides a signal proportional to the number of optics interrupted, and so the object width. See similar questions...

What is the difference between the relative and absolute detection in DS3 light grids?

DataSensor Sensors FAQs Infra Photoelectric Area Color Laser...
In the first mode the object can be detected in any position inside the measurement field. In the second mode, in one pre-established position. These modes can thus solve many different applications, ranging from presence and orientation control, object identification as well as guide control. See similar questions...

What is relative vs absolute links?

Frequent Questions About SEO | How To Get Ranked In Search E...
Relative: Relative links usually look something like index.html or /folder/page.html. The way the page knows where to go is all relative to the page the link is placed on. A link to index.html for example, will only work if the file is found in the current folder. Absolute: Absolute links usually look something like http://www.example.com/page.html. This is a full url and the linked to page will be found regardless of where that link is located on the site. See similar questions...

Paths/URL's are incorrect, I want absolute/relative URLs?

TinyMCE:FAQ - Moxiecode Documentation Wiki
These are the different configuration scenarios for URLs within TinyMCE. There is also an example page illustrating these different options: This will convert all URLs within the same domain to relative URLs. The URLs will be relative from the document_base_url. relative_urls : true, document_base_url : "http://www.site.com/path1/" This will convert all relative URLs to absolute URLs. The URLs will be absolute based on the document_base_url. See similar questions...

Should I specify absolute or relative path for my thumbnails?

Zoom Search Engine - FAQ - Customizing appearance of images ...
For example, if you web site is organized such that its thumbnails are always in a directory called "thumb" relative to where the image files are, then you should use relative path "thumb". If your thumbnail images all start with a "th_", you should check "Look for thumbnails with the same filename but with "th_" before the name. See similar questions...

What is the difference between absolute and nominal ratings?

Filter Council
Nominal rating usually means the filter can capture a given percentage of particles of a stated size (e.g. 50% @ 10 micron). Absolute rating is the smallest typical particle size retained by a filter media at 98+% efficiency. This is also referred to as the Beta=75 or 98.67% efficiency rating. For additional information about nominal and absolute micron ratings: (Reference FMC TSB-89-5R2 under revisions) See similar questions...

Should I use relative links or absolute links?

Absolute links. It is recommended by Google as it is possible for crawlers to miss some relative links. See similar questions...

Why is my paths incorrect, I want absolute/relative URLs?

TinyMCE:Faq - Moxiecode Documentation Wiki
This will convert all URLs within the same domain to relative URLs. The URLs will be relative from the document_base_url. relative_urls : true, document_base_url : "http://www.site.com/path1/" This will convert all relative URLs to absolute URLs. The URLs will be absolute based on the document_base_url. relative_urls : false, remove_script_host : true, document_base_url : "http://www.site.com/path1/" This will convert all relative URLs to absolute URLs.

Are the temperature values reported by the software relative to this absolute?

FAQ for Solver Software: ANSWER, PORFLOW, TIDAL and RADM -- ...
Yes. Temperature values are always reported relative to this value. The temperature (say, for computing density by gas law) is computed as the reported temperature plus this absolute value. See similar questions...

What are the pros and cons of using absolute versus relative coordinates?

OpenGL FAQ / 9 Transformations
Some OpenGL applications may need to render the same object in multiple locations in a single scene. OpenGL lets you do this two ways: Use “absolute coordinates". Maintain multiple copies of each object, each with its own unique set of vertices. You don't need to change the ModelView matrix to render the object at the desired location. Use “relative coordinates". See similar questions...

Is it faster to use absolute coordinates or to use relative coordinates?

OpenGL FAQ / 22 Performance
By using absolute (or “world”) coordinates, your application doesn't have to change the ModelView matrix as often. By using relative (or “object”) coordinates, you can cut down on data storage of redundant primitives or geometry. A good analogy is an architectural software package that models a hotel. The hotel model has hundreds of thousands of rooms, most of which are identical. See similar questions...

What is the difference in zero order kinetics and first order reactions relative to enzyme kinetics?

Highlights and FAQ's
In first order kinetics, the enzyme is in excess and the substrate concentration is the limiting factor. Enzymes are generally not assayed in this manner due to limited accuracy. In zero order kinetics, the "rate" of the reaction is directly proportional to the enzyme concentration and independent of the substrate concentration. The substrate is provided in excess. The Michaelis-Menten equation describes this relationship and will be studied in more detail in Clinical Chemistry. See similar questions...

What is the difference between the absolute and common availability?

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) [Servers-Monitoring.net]
Absolute availability is a mathematically exact number - there's the number of dropouts (during a time period) and the number of monitored times. If they're mutually divided we get the value of the availability during the whole time period. Common availability comes out of the absolute availability but takes some things into consideration - gives them various importances: When has the data changed: dropouts (and all data) are less important the older they are. See similar questions...

Why is this so absolute?

SIGGRAPH 2007 | For Presenters | Courses | Frequently Asked ...
Firstly, the answer is fairness and equal opportunity for consideration. This respects the contribution process for all submissions. Secondly, the Courses deadlines were designed to maximize submission development and quality for all contributors, including those contributing to other SlGGRAPH 2007 programs. Submission deadlines are set as late as possible, but they must also support quality in review, production, and delivery at SIGGRAPH 2007. See similar questions...

What is Co-Location?

Forum FAQ - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums
Co-location is when you either purchase a server or install your own equipment in the host's data center. The datacenter will manage the server environment, security and internet connection, but leave the maintainence of the server up to you. When co-locating, you should ensure that the server has the appropriate software licenses and means of remote administration; often the most a host will do for you (without additional cost) is to reboot the server.

How do I restore to a different location the contents of a tarfile created with absolute pathnames?

SunManagers Frequently Asked Questions
Tarfiles should not normally be created with absolute pathnames, only with relative pathnames. Do not type "tar c /path/name" to create a tar archive, type "(cd /path; tar c name)" instead. Note: if you do "(cd /path/name; tar c .)", you will indeed avoid absolute pathnames, but beware that the tarfile created may silently overwrite the permissions of the current directory when unpacked. That's OK if you unpack it via: "mkdir name; cd name; tar xf /my/tarfile. See similar questions...
