Term/abbreviation Significance
Pneumatic interface The pneumatic interface (port pattern) is the interface between the CPX
modules and the pneumatics modules ( V alve terminal); the
pneumatic interface serves to connect the valve terminal pneumatics to
the CPX terminal; it creates the mechanical connection between the
electric and pneumatic side and ensures transmission of the electric
signals; the pneumatic interface counts functionally as on the “electric”
side of the CPX terminal
Pneumatic modules Collective term for the pneumatic modules which can be integrated into
aCPXterminal( Valve terminal); pneumatic modules form the
“pneumatic” side of the CPX terminal
POF Polymeric Optical Fibre (also called Plastic Optical Fibre)

PROFINET IO IRT Profinet IO in the version with isochronous real-time protocol
(typ. cycle time: < 1 ms; typ. application: drive control)
PROFINET IO RT Profinet IO in the version with real-time protocol
(typ. cycle time: 10 ms; typ. application: production control)
PROFIsafe PROFIsafe makes possible shared transmission of operating
components of a reliable control and process control on the same
network; for more extensive information www.profinet.com
STI I/O diagnostic interface (System Table Interface)
Valve terminal Electromagnetic valves with shared power supply, air supply and
control; the valves and pneumatic components on the right side of the
pneumatic interface together form the valve terminal pneumatics
