Relevant Datasheets & Manuals
Description | File | Source | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | ClientAPI.zip: documentation of and client libraries for the remoting interface of the system. The documentation is system-agnostic, describing the data-format and some of the general data structures you will encounter. The client libraries are for Python, JavaScript, C++ and C# users, each with a small bare-bones example of reading values. | Email from Tilo Steinmetz at Meno | |
| 2 | API-Docs.zip: documentation of many of the classes exposed through the API. Frankly, this documentation is still pretty erratic: some parts are not documented at all while other parts still contain internals in the user-documentation. But once you have established connection to the system, this is still the best source available for details of the objects tree you see through the API | Email from Tilo Steinmetz at Meno | |
| 3 | menlosystemcore_with_plugins-1.7.0-installer.exe, coreui-2.5.0-installer.exe and systemlogic.zip: releases of the PC-version of the main application and the GUI component, to allow you to install on any of your (Windows-)PCs and get them to pretend to be an LFC. Useful for testing before the actual system gets shipped. Please note: we expect to have one more bugfix release of the software and to do lots of editing of the systemlogic (which is a high-level, scriptable configuration of the system). The bugfix release is needed because the GUI still crashes sometimes during startup and the systemlogic as attached still needs some work: a few elements GUI pages are not working and the automation is still missing | Email from Tilo Steinmetz at Meno | |
