| nc, ncis |
Network Configurable Inputs are typically setpoints. An nci may be part of a Px graphic. |
| nvis |
Input Network Variables are defined for each device in the device’s Lon Xml file. |
| nvos |
Output Network Variables are defined for each device by the device’s Lon Xml file. |
| nv, nvs |
Network Variables refer, in general, to input and output pieces of information associated with each Lon device. The Lon Xml
file for the device defines these unique device properties.
