lonworks-LinkFilter

This component is for troubleshooting. Its default Link Filter view provides debug-level messages related to Lonworks links.

To use this component you drag or copy it from the lonworks palette to a Lon network node in the Nav tree.

Figure 41. LinkFilter properties

To access this view, right-click LonNetwork and click Views > AX Property Sheet, then expand Link Filter.

Property	Value	Description
Enable Subnet Node	`true` or `false` (default)	Turns the subnet node on and off. `true` applies the filter to all but the device identified by its `Subnet Node`.
Subnet Node	s/n syntax	Identifies the node to exclude, where s defines the subnet, and n defines the node. For example, Subnet Node = 1/5
Enable Device	`true` or `false` (default)	Turns the device on and off. `true` applies the filter to all but the device named in the `Device Name` property.
Device Name	string	Identifies the host’s LONn port used in a Lon network. For example, Device Name = Mnlrr2. For a LonTunnel copied from the palette, this defaults to LON1. Defice names must match the name string in the LonNetwork Lon Comm Config container.
Enable Selector	`true` or `false` (default)	Turns use of the selector on and off. `true` applies the filter to all but the device(s) specified by the `Selector` property.
Selector	number between 0 and 16383]	Identifies a selection to exclude. The Lon Link Manager uses decimal notation for selector numbers, but a Lon device’s Nv Manager lists selectors for nvs using hexadecimal numbers. For example: Selector = 16.
Max Entries	number (defaults to 1,000)	Defines the number of records to display in the Link Filter View. When collection reaches this number it stops.
To Standard Out	`true` or `false` (default)	Enables and disables the printing of Boolean properties to the station. `true` prints the results of Boolean properties to the station.
Include Completion Events	`true` or `false` (default)	Enables and disables the inclusion of completion events. `true` identifies link events, which require notification upon completion.

Action

A Clear Table action removes collected records. This enables continued collection if the buffer previously reached the Max Entries limit. You can drag or copy multiple LinkFilter components to the Lon network node.
