Lynxspring Expertise: Methodology for Driver Development
• Discovery • Development • Deployment
Lynxspring Driver Development
• Use it if the project justifies and the time line permits – – – – Costs is typically $20k-$40k Lynxspring needs access to target system protocol Lynxspring needs access to target system expertise Time line varies – typically 4-6 weeks elapsed time; maybe more…

Notes on integration
• Its Not Magic - Controlling equipment and system integration is not the same - Each control manufacturer has nuances • Have the right tools and skills - You need native tools and skills to maintain the existing system.
Many “open” protocol systems may require native programming tools • Some systems are easier than others
Done Properly Integrations Work
• Target your Market - Concentrate on the largest install base and best opportunities - Prepare to invest more labor on your first integration • Find your resources - Employ or contract people experienced with your competitors products - Lynxspring can help you find the proper resources • Service Master - Done right, product differentiation is limited, your Trane rules
Session 5 Takeaways
• • • • • JENEsys™ is an IP based product/system Integration projects are inherent in JENEsys™ design and architecture Drivers for integration come from 3 sources – Direct from Lynxspring – – From 3 From 3 rd rd parties for which Lynxspring is a distributor parties that Lynxspring references and for which Lynxspring will act as a liaison Lynxspring Professional Services will do driver development using the FlexSerialDriver API Be prepared for integration projects

Introduction to Niagara AX and ProBuilder
• Niagara AX Characteristics: –
Java-based:
uses Java VM as a common runtime environment across various o/s and hardware –
Heterogeneous system integration:
designed to be “protocol agnostic”; assumes no one standard; integrates cleanly to all networks and protocols –
Programming for non-programmers:
Java APIs combined with graphical programming and config tools –
Embedded Systems:
wide range of processors from small embedded devices to server class machines –
Distributed systems:
scalability in highly distributed systems with thousands of nodes and range of network topologies
