Profile Markup Language (PML)

• Profile Definition Markup Language

• Profile framework to support– Device Profiles

– Subsystem Profiles

• Abstracts the interface to enterprise applications

• Provides a resource file technology update– Backwards compatible utilities

– Extends LonMark XML resource file

• Provide object model extensions/new properties required to support BACnet, KNX, Dali, etc… elements

LONMARK® Profiles

Integrating IP and LonWorks® Networks using ATS





The IP Convergence

• The convergence is coming….– It is hard to predict when, but ultimately everything that communicates will have an IP address and use IP protocols to exchange data

• New link technologies support IP natively, e.g. 6LoWPAN, IEEE 1901– Incorporation of these links into systems will provide new capabilities and features

• The non‐IP installed base will persist during the convergence– Interoperating with the non‐IP world will be required for many years


IP Transports Data

• Higher level protocols add semantics and can provide interoperability– LONMARK Profiles will provide interoperability to IP based systems and provide interoperability with existing LONMARK nodes when the IzoT™ Protocol is used

• The IzoT protocol adds the services missing from IP– Multicast, secure multicast, confirmed multicast and others

• The IzoT protocol supports link specific IP header compression, maximizing the efficiency of lower speed links





Benefits

• The flexibility of link technology with IP

• The interoperability of LONMARK Profiles

• The ability to support LONMARK Specifications or IP specifications with a single SKU

– Even BACnet/IP can be supported on this same SKU


VDI Profile

• German Engineering Standards Group

• Creating LonMark versions of profiles for all their profile standars

• Working with LonMark to create system level profiles for data element connections
