Network Interfaces,
NIC
The NIC’s are the world’s fastest and most universal network interfaces for
L
onWorks
®
(EIA-709) and Ethernet (EIA-852) channels. Based on the revolu-
tionary ORION and L-Chip technology, they offer the highest packet update
rates and lowest response times on the market.
All NICs are fully compatible with legacy products, e.g. LonMaker
®
, NL220,
ALEX, LNS 3.x applications, OPC servers, NodeUtil32, NLUtil, and with high
performance ORION applications.
The multiplexed network interface (MNI) support allows, for the first time
ever, multiple MIP applications to be started in parallel to an LPA or LSD
Tool, or LonMaker
®
, or NL220 on a single network interface.
All NICs are fully compatible with legacy products, e.g. LonMaker
®
, NL220,
ALEX, LNS 3.x applications, OPC servers, NodeUtil32, NLUtil, and with high
performance ORION applications such as TAC Vista 4.4 and higher.
The NIC709-IP acts as a high performance remote network interface over
the Intranet or the Internet. Secure communication between the NIC709-
IP and the PC is supported by using MD5 authentication. Remote protocol
analysis is supported by using the LPA-IP-SW software.
The NIC-852 supports MIP/LDV applications to access the IP-852 (Ethernet)
channel without changing the application program.
FUNCTIONAL FEATURES
Network Interface for EIA-709
and EIA-852 (IP-852) network
channels.
Best performance, highest
packet throughput.
Use the LPA, LSD Tool,
your ORION applications,
MIP applications, and LNS
applications on a single
network interface at the same
time.
Compatible with LNS
applications in high
performance VNI mode e.g.
LonMaker
®
, NL220
®
, ALEX.
Compatible with MIP
applications (LDV interface)
e.g. NodeUtil32, NLUtil , etc.
Compatible with high
performance ORION
applications (ORION API).
Software selectable transceivers
on NIC709-USB and NIC709-
PCI: FT-10/LPT-10, RS-485,
and TP-1250/2500.
Runs on Windows 98/
ME/2000/XP
®
(NIC709-USB,
NIC709-PCI, NIC709-IP and
NIC-852).
