LNS DDE Server
Let any DDE- or any SuiteLink-compatible Windows application monitor and control Echelon networks—without programming!

Need to integrate a human machine interface (HMI) or supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) application with a LonWorks network? Check out the LNS DDE Server.
The LNS DDE Server acts as a driver for many popular HMI and SCADA applications such as Wonderware® InTouch®. Any Windows-based HMI or SCADA application that supports the ubiquitous dynamic data exchange (DDE) protocol works great with the LNS DDE Server. When paired with InTouch, the LNS DDE Server uses Wonderware SuiteLink—bypassing DDE altogether—making it an ultra-high-performance monitoring and control solution for LonWorks networks.
