Send Service Pin
Message This option is only available for the SmartServer’s 16 internal devices
(SmartServer App device, SmartServer virtual device, IP-852 router, RNI,
local network interface, LonTalk device, and 10 custom app devices). Sends
a service pin message from the internal device. You can use this command
to commission an internal device on the SmartServer, such as a custom app
device, using an OpenLNS application such as OpenLNS CT.
This command is useful because if you press the service pin on the
SmartServer hardware when commissioning an internal device, it sends
service pin messages from all 16 of the internal devices defined on the
SmartServer.
Replace Opens the Replace LON Device dialog in which you manually enter the
Neuron ID of a replacement device that has the same program ID of the
selected device. See Manually Replacing Devices in Chapter 5 for more
information.
Commission Downloads network and application configuration data into the device.
Decommission Temporarily uninstalls the device. Decommissioning devices is useful when
optimizing, troubleshooting, or repairing a network. All the configuration
data of a decommissioned device, including configuration properties and
bindings, are preserved.
Release Neuron ID Erases the Neuron ID defined for the device in the SmartServer or OpenLNS
network database and decommissions the device. You can release the
Neuron IDs of devices on a development SmartServer to create a template of
that development SmartServer and deploy it on one or more target
SmartServers, and automatically install the devices in the template.
Set Online Places the device in the online state. The behavior in the online state
depends on the device. A Neuron-hosted device, for example, will run its
application.
