NeuronHUB Windows Program
Due to platform limitations of some protocols, an intermediate conversion program is required. The NeuronHUB program serves this purpose. Contact support to obtain the installation package.
Installation
Double-click to install. It is recommended not to install on the system drive to avoid permission issues when modifying configuration files. The program starts automatically by default.
Create a Node
Click the File menu and select the corresponding submenu item based on the device type to connect. Fill in the connection parameters on the interface and add the node.
Node Operations
In the Node Tables interface, right-click a node to access context menu options for starting/stopping nodes, updating parameters, or deleting nodes. OPCDA nodes also support exporting points to NEURON node table files.
Port Settings
The program listens on port 17889 by default. Change the port via File->Port.
