Each SNVT_state network variable can be used to communicate either an integer
value in the range of 0-65535 or up to 16 Boolean values as a binary coded number.
The type conversion function BOOL2INT is useful for packing and INT2BOOL for
unpacking the binary coded variables. Each bit indicates the state of the Boolean
value with, for example, the following interpretations:
The communication inputs and outputs are seen in the relay configuration tool as
global variables:
where x is a number from 1 to 32. Similar names are used in the LON Network Tool.
The basic operation principle is that every time the output value is changed by the
configuration, the new value is propagated automatically over the LON network
to all communication inputs that are bound to the output. The network variable
connection can be from a single source to one or many sinks. An output can also
be unbound, i.e. it is not transmitted to LON network at all. Also an input can be
unbound, i.e. no updates will be accepted to this input.
Communication inputs acts as holding registers, they preserve the last received
