6.1. Node Parameters
e management of these parameters is usually performed by a management tool such as
Echelon's LonMaker®. If you are using a management tool, it is recommended that these
parameters not be changed manually. However, the Interface Menu does allow users to change the
interface parameters manually, if desired. Not all node parameters are editable from this interface
and consequently a node may not be fully configured such as group membership. is capability
is provided for debugging or other special circumstances where a network management tool is
not available and minimal functionality is needed.
e term NearSide refers to the component network interface (709.1 or LON, FT-10 or RS-485
transceiver). e term FarSide refers to the 852 IP interface. When 852 bridging router mode is
enabled, however, NearSide and FarSide both refer to distinct 852 IP channels connected to the
same IP interface (Ethernet or WiFi).
Interface : To select which interface is to be edited, choose the interface from the popup menu and
then click the Submit Changes button.
