LONMARK types, either per table or by a self-defined algorithm
11
Event Scheduler
Control data points based on time-of-day, day, and dateUse built-in Web pages to define and update schedules
12
Alarming—Alarm Generation
Create alarms for up to 40 different alarm conditionsTrigger alarms based on:
– Inputs from LONWORKS devices– Inputs from Modbus devices– Inputs from M-Bus devices– Inputs from built-in hardware inputs– Calculated data points
Specify hysteresis guard banding to suppress repeated alarms

Web Services—SOAP/XML
Open data exchange between the i.LON 100 and Web services compatible applications including Panoramix®
Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)– An envelope for exchanging information
between computing devicesExtensible Mark-up Language (XML)
– Message format used to describe the message contents, how to process data types, how to respond back.
– XML data formats are self-descriptive– XML data can be handled by all Web
services enabled applications without the need for special formatting routines

Web Connections
Connects data points in different domains, system, and networks, including:
– Any data point, including LONWORKS, Modbus, M-Bus, or local device data points
– Any IP connection—Ethernet or PPP– Other i.LON 100 servers– Enterprise applications
Uses Web services as the adhesiveConverts data point types
SNVT_temp_p#US → SNVT_temp_fSNVT_lev_disc → SNVT_switch
Web connections can be created with an easy-to-use Web page
– Or by an Web application
