.LON 1000 Internet Serve Starter Kit

Your LonMaker drawing now displays the functional block, but it has no
network variables, and is not connected to anything. You must now add the
network variables for the functional block. A powerful feature of using the
LonMaker tools and

.LON 1000 together is the ability to define the network

variables dynamically. In this way, you can optimize the use of network
variables on the

.LON 1000 and select the exact network variable type for

each of your connections.

c) Drag an Input Network Variable shape from the LonMaker Basic stencil

and place it on the

.LON 1000 functional block. The LonMaker tool will

prompt you to select which network variable you want to place on the
functional block; however, since no network variables have been defined, the
selection list will be empty.
