Oct. 18, 2005: New LonMark Interoperability Guidelines Released
SAN JOSE, Calif. - LonMark International has announced the release of Version 3.4 of the LonMark Interoperability Guidelines, designed to make it easier to install open, interoperable devices. The guidelines include support for self-installed devices and networks, further extending the reach of LonMark certification into consumer products, industrial automation, and other machine-to-machine (M2M) applications. Further enhancements have been made to improve device installation with network tools, making it easier for installers and integrators to create networks of open devices and systems, says the organization.
The LonMark Interoperability Guidelines provide manufacturers with details on how to design open, interoperable products based on the LonWorks® networking platform. Nearly 700 products have been tested and certified as compliant to the LonMark Interoperability Guidelines.
