Report
Self-Documentation

Includes the self-documentation data for all exported devices and their network
variables. This option is unavailable if the IzoT Commissioning Tool computer
is not attached to the physical network. This option can add significant
processing time to the export if there are many network variables within the
export scope.

Report Device
Specific CP Values

Includes the values of all device-specific configuration properties.
Device-specific CPs are CPs that may be changed by the device itself or by
another device that is not based on OpenLNS. IzoT Commissioning Tool reads
device-specific values from the devices in the network—this option is
unavailable if the IzoT Commissioning Tool computer is not connected to the
physical network. This option can add significant processing time to the export
if there are many device-specific CPs within the export scope.

Report Device
Address Table
Counts

Includes the address table counts of all exported devices. This option is
unavailable if you are using IzoT Commissioning Tool on a remote client. This
option can add significant processing time to the export if there are many
devices within the export scope

Exclude XSLT
Stylesheet

Includes the XSLT style sheet. See IzoT Commissioning Tool Network Report
later in this chapter.

Include Channels

Selects which channels are reported in the XML file. Choose All, None, or
Referenced. Referenced means that only channels referenced by devices
within the selected network scope will be reported.

Include Device
Templates

Selects which device templates are reported in the XML file. Choose All,
None, or Referenced. Referenced means that only device templates referenced
by devices within the selected network scope will be reported.

Include Connection
Descriptions

Selects which connection descriptions are reported in the XML file. Choose
All, None, or Referenced. Referenced means that only connection descriptions
referenced by connections within the selected network scope will be reported.

Comments

Specifies optional comments that you can use to document the export file. The
comments are inserted as a set of comment tags containing the comments in the
XML file.

File Name

Specifies the name of the XML file. The default name is
C:\Users\Public\Documents\LonWorks\OpenLnsCt\XML\network\Export[
_version ].xml.

3. Click OK. The IzoT Commissioning Tool XML Export Status window displaying the report

status opens, and IzoT Commissioning Tool generates the XML file. You can click Cancel to
stop the XML export. When “Export complete” opens, click OK to close the window.

4. You can open the exported L

network XML file in an XML editor and begin viewing,

creating, deleting, or modifying items; view the exported XML file as an IzoT Commissioning
Tool network report; or view or edit the IzoT Commissioning Tool XML file with another
application. If you make changes to the XML file, save the file. You can then import the updated
XML file back into the network as described in Importing an IzoT Commissioning Tool XML File
