3. Double click the LonBridge140 xxx Setup.exe file that you downloaded (the
xxx in the file name represents the current build number for the
LonBridge Server). The Echelon LonBridge Server 1.4 main installer
window opens.
4. Follow the installation dialogs to install the LonBridge Server onto your
computer.
By default the LonBridge Server is installed in the C:\Program
Files\Echelon\LonBridge Server directory.
In addition to the LonBridge Server, the installation program also installs:
• OpenLDV 3.4 Driver – A Windows driver that provides L ON W ORKS tools
and applications with a unified Windows software interface for sending
and receiving LonTalk ® messages through Echelon's family of network
interfaces.
• LonBridge Control Utility – An application that you can use to configure,
start, and stop the LonBridge Server. This utility is not required to
operate the LonBridge Server, but is useful for setting it up. See
The
LonBridge Control Utility on page 10 for more information about this
utility.
• LonHome Display Example – An example user interface application that
uses the LonBridge Server.
• The Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 – The required operating
environment for the LonBridge Control utility. The .NET Framework is
not installed if your PC already has version 3.5 SP1 or later installed.
You can embed the Windows installer for LonBridge Server into your own
product’s installation program, using a silent installation of the LonBridge
Server. Silent installation does not install the OpenLDV driver, the LonHome
Display Example application, the .NET Framework, or the LonBridge
documentation. To perform silent installation, use the /S command-line switch:
LonBridgeSetup.exe /S
The LonBridge Server is installed as a Windows Service. You can set the startup
type for the Service by running the LonBridge Control utility, by modifying the
config.xml file, or from the Windows Services window. See Chapter 2,
Configuring the LonBridge Server , on page 9 for more information about
configuring the LonBridge Server.
