LNS Powered By Echelon Logo
Echelon's LNS network operating system is software that enables the connection of network tools, enterprise applications, people and systems with everyday LonWorks devices. LNS is built to support and comply with multiple industry standards such as ANSI/EIA 709.1 and LonMark® as well as numerous Internet standards. The use of LNS as an integrating platform for these standards enables software applications to interoperate whether on a Microsoft® Windows® platform—regardless of programming language—or Java™ technology platform. The LNS POWERED BY ECHELON Logo allows customers and end-users to identify the products that have been optimized for the next generation of LonWorks management, monitoring and control solutions.
The Opportunity
While Echelon is delivering the platform for building and deploying LNS enabled software solutions, partners are essential to providing the industry-specific and application-specific software that will interact with the LonWorks devices and the people and enterprises who own those devices.
Echelon is introducing the LNS POWERED BY ECHELON Logo to help Echelon’s partners, customers and independent developers identify their software as built on the industry leading LNS platform, as well as interoperable with other industry leading software solutions built on LNS.
