Channel
A transmission medium in a network is called Channel. The network is
structured by
Router
or
Repeater
in different physical network segments –
Channels.
With consideration of the physical limits for the underlying medium, any de-
sired number of nodes can belong to one channel.
Client
Service requesting device within a Client-Server-system. With the aid of the
service request, the Client access on objects (data) of the
Server
is possible.
The Server provides the Service..

Configuration
A configuration is the determination of the outer form (Hardware configura-
tion) and the content function (Software configuration) of a node.
Configuration variables
Variables for external configuration. The binding of the configuration vari-
ables with the so-called Configuration Properties (CPs) abide them perma-
nent.
CPs (Configuration Properties)
For the function of a network node, configuration properties are formed
from the varying configuration data. CPs are variables comparably with nvis
for the external controller configuration via LON network. As opposed to
the nvis the settings via CPs are stored in the LNS database and in the
EEPROM of the Neuron-Chip. Thus they are still available after Reset.
