This document refers to and describes the LNS Plug-in API that all plug-ins use. Because plug-ins
work together with directors, a director is needed in order to fully test and debug the plug-ins that you
write. While any director can be used for this purpose, this guide describes the use of the LonMaker
tool as the director. See the LonMaker User’s Guide for more detailed information on the use of the
LonMaker tool.
