2 Cancel the FLUSH state in the SLTA-10 Adapter. LNS applications automatically
handle this, and it is done automatically by the SLTA-10 MIP mode DOS network
driver after an open command or uplink niRESET if the / Z flag is not specified.
The FLUSH state can be manually canceled by sending the niFLUSH_CANCEL
message. The FLUSH state can also be disabled by a configuration switch on the
SLTA-10 Adapter as described earlier in this chapter.
3 Install the network interface in one or two domains using the Update Domain
network management message. This may be done by a network management
tool across the network, or may be done directly by the host application by
sending the Update Domain message as a local network management command.
4 Change the state of the network interface to configured. This may be done by a
network management tool across the network, or may be done directly by the
host application by sending the Set Node Mode network management message.
Installing an SLTA-10 Adapter on a Network
An SLTA-10 Adapter attached to a network appears as a standard LONWORKS node
to other nodes on the network. The SLTA-10 Adapter node is logically installed on a
network with a network management tool. Installation scenarios are described in the
LONWORKS Installation Oueruiew engineering bulletin (number 005-0006-01).
Unique installation requirements of host applications are described in Chapter 3 of
the LONWORKS Host Application Programmer’s Guide.
Installing with LNS, the LonMaker for Windows Integration Tool, or the
LNS DDE Server
With an LNS-based application, the SLTA-10 Adapter is initialized automatically as
part of the system open. Prior to the system open, the application selects the desired
network interface. See the Chapter 3 Initializing and Terminating LCA Applications
in the LCA Object and Data Server Programmer’s Guide for code fragments.
Installing with the LonBuilder Tool
An SLTA-10 Adapter node can be installed on a development network using the
LonBuilder Network Manager.
Chapter 6 of the LonBuilder User’s Guide describes
how to define and install nodes in a development network using the LonBuilder
Network Manager. A prerequisite to creating application node target hardware and
node specifications is to define the channels that will be included in the network as
defined under Defining Channels in Chapter 10 of the LonBuilder User’s Guide.
Select the standard transceiver type compatible with the transceiver on your
SLTA-10 Adapter node.
When creating a hardware properties definition for a custom node to represent the
SLTA-10 Adapter node, set the input clock rate to 10MHz. Then create a hardware
definition for the custom node specifying these hardware properties. The SLTA-10
Adapter will not accept an incorrect clock rate or hardware properties.
This may
occur, for example, if you specify de f au1 t-hw-props instead of the correct one.
