Lon Xml Tool

The Lon Xml Tool is available from the Tools menu. The Lon Xml Create view helps you make your own Lon Xml (.lnml) file for a device, using the source .xif file and (if necessary) other resource files, as available from the device’s manufacturer. The tool’s dialog (Figure 361) provides the necessary input fields.
