6.2.7 Using Neuron ID to Address Devices (Client Drivers only)
It is possible to poll remote LonWorks devices using their Neuron ID's instead of the traditional Network Manager method. The Neuron ID is the 12 Digit Hex identifier of

Note that Neuron ID addressing is considered explicit addressing so the station address, domain ID and subnet ID must be set as described in Section 6.1.4
