association. You can update the list by

downloading the latest program ID data from

www.lonmark.org/spid

. Select Custom if you are

using a transceiver that is not compatible with
any of channel types in the list. To enter a
channel type value that has not yet been added to
the standard list, select Number[Decimal]> and enter a decimal value
from 0 to 255 in the box to the right of the
Channel Type box (the calculator converts the
value to hex for the program ID).

Model Number

The specific product model. Assign a unique
model number for the specified manufacturer,
device class, usage, and channel type. You may
use the same hardware for multiple model
numbers depending on the program that is loaded
into the hardware. The model number within the
program ID does not have to conform to your
published model number. This value can be
automatically updated by setting Automatic
Program ID Management
in the Program ID
window of the device template wizard (described
earlier in this chapter). Enter a model number
within the range specified in the device template
wizard.

Has Changeable Interface

Set this checkbox to indicate that the device has a
changeable device interface. Set this checkbox if
the device has any network variables with
changeable types, or if the device supports
dynamic network variables.

Dynamic network variables are network variables
that are added at installation time by a network
tool. You can only implement dynamic network
variables on host-based devices, so you cannot use
them in any Neuron Chip or Smart Transceiver-
hosted devices that you develop with the
NodeBuilder tool.

Network variables with changeable types are
network variables whose type can be modified at
installation time by a network tool. You can
implement changeable type network variables on
