Stack Applications
To test the example application, you can use the OpenLNS Commissioning Tool
or another OpenLNS installation tool to install the device or router.
Running the SimpleLtDevice Example
The console application takes one argument: niName (the network interface
name). If you run the console application without entering any parameters, the
application prints the following message and then exits:
SimpleLtDevice <niName>
<niName> is the name of the native LonTalk network interface
Running the SimpleIp852Device Example
The command takes two arguments: ipAddress (the IPV4 address in decimal
dotted format) and port (the port used by the device). If you run the console
application without entering any parameters, the application prints the following
message and then exits:
SimpleIp852Device <ipAddress> <ipPort>
<ipAddress> is the IPv4 dotted-decimal address to use
for the IP852 interface
<port> is a decimal port number to use for the
IP852 interface
Running the Ip852Router Example
The command takes three arguments: niName (the network interface name),
ipAddress (the IPV4 address in decimal dotted format), and port (the port used
by the device). If you run the console application without entering any
parameters, the application prints the following message and then exits:
Ip852Router <niName> <ipAddress> <ipPort>
<niName> is the name of the native LonWorks network
Interface
<ipAddress> is the IPv4 dotted-decimal address to use for
the IP-852 interface
<port> is a decimal port number to use for the IP-852
interface
SimpleLtDevice and SimpleIp852Device Example
Application Details
The SimpleLtDevice example is a simple voltage amplifier application that
simulates a voltage actuator with a built-in gain of 2. This device receives an
input voltage value, multiplies the value by 2, and updates the simulated output
feedback value. For a real voltage actuator device, the input value would be used
to set a voltage level. After the device updated the voltage level, the application
would read the actual level and use that value to set the feedback value.
