Venus and Loge protocol
Venus functions as a gateway between a local 485 network and a remote master which is connected via a TNC and radio.
Addresses
All devices including Venus have a system address. When a received TNC packet is not for Venus, the packet is forwarded onto the local 485 network. Responses from the 485 network are forwarded back out the TNC to the calling party.
