2. The Commission Device Wizard opens. Where you start in the wizard depends on whether you
are commissioning an application device or router, and whether OpenLNS CT is attached to the
network and OnNet or OffNet.
• If OpenLNS CT is unattached to the network or attached but OffNet, the wizard will skip the
Device Application Image and Initial State windows and begin with the Device Identification
window.
• If OpenLNS CT is attached to the network and OnNet, and you are commissioning at least
one application device, the wizard will begin with Device Application Image window. If you
are only commissioning routers, the wizard will begin with the Initial State window.
Loading a Device Application Image
You can load an application image into an application device that supports application loading (some
application devices have a fixed application image that cannot be changed). For application devices
that support application loading, the device manufacturer may load the application into the application
device when it is manufactured, or they may give you the option to either load the initial application, a
different application, or an upgraded application.
When you load an application image into an application device, you can also load a new Neuron
firmware image into the device. OpenLNS CT supports devices that have application images based on
different Neuron firmware images.
