Chapter 7 Object Details
7.1 Overview
The interface card supports two objects--a node object and Variable Speed Motor Drive object (VSD object).
This chapter provides detailed information on these objects.
7.2 Node Object
7.2.1 Node object overview
The node object processes the system events in LONWORKS network communication for the interface
card. (Usually any intervention of users or integrators is not required.)
Figure 7-1 illustrates the relationship between a node object and network variables (NVs).
