LonMarkObject (Functional Block)
A functional block represents a collection of network variables and configuration properties
on a device that perform a related function. For example, a digital input device with four
switches could contain one function block for each switch. In OpenLNS, functional blocks are
represented by LonMarkObject objects.
Functional profiles defining standard LonMarkObjects (SFPTs) are published by the
LonMark Interoperability Association. Custom LonMarkObjects can be defined with
user-defined functional profile templates (UFPTs).
The following table summarizes the LonMarkObject object.
Description A set of network variables and configuration properties on a
device that perform a related function.
Added to API Prior to LNS Release 3.0.
