6-4 Programming
Considerations
• Select a TP/FT-10 channel in the protocol analyzer Network Mgmt.Target
HW definition;
• Mount an FTM-10 Modular Transceiver on a LonBuilder SMX Adapter;
• Mount the LonBuilder SMX Adapter on the control processor P3 protocol
analyzer transceiver expansion connector. For level 3 control processors,
JP1 must be in the "A" position;
• Use the LonBuilder software to install the protocol analyzer.
Refer to the custom node section of Chapter 7 of the LonBuilder User's Guide to best
understand the migration of the application from emulators to actual FTT-10A-
based custom nodes.
Warning: In custom designs using Flash memory, the programmed device must
be explicitly secured by the PROM programmer once the image is programmed.
See Software Data Protection (SDP) information provided by the manufacturer of
the PROM programmer.
Warning: All Neuron 3120 Chips must be programmed with the generated .NEI
image before the device is soldered in a PCB assembly.
