The Procedures
Page 1 of 2
Rules and procedures are complementary to the protocol definition.The role and benefits of procedures are:
- Realize full plug & play self-configuration
- Create a de-facto interoperability
- Hide the complexity and the abstraction
- Automate the processes wherever possible
- Offer validated routines for typical tasks
- Call everything by names not numbers
- User feedback - Warning messaging system (missing peripherals, battery low, overheating, etc.)
- Display sharing
- Unified storage system
- Remote editing (establishing links, modifying named parameters and triggering actions)
- Data querying (local use/display of remote information)
Procedures as turnkey code
Usually, implementing procedures is part of the application coder job; this is not the case with CopperLan where these are available ready to use.Procedures are implemented as code routines:
- The network handling resides in the VNM.
- In every application (software or embedded), the CopperLan procedure code resides in the CHAI.
