5A, WirelessHART, MiWi, etc. custom or standard wired protocols e. g. , Ethernet, HomePlug, etc. , and/or any other suitable communication protocol, including communication protocols not yet developed as of the filing date of this document. The memory 406 includes high speed random access memory, such as DRAM, SRAM, DDR RAM, or other random access solid state memory devices; and, optionally, includes non volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic disk storage devices, one or more optical disk storage devices, one or more flash memory devices, or one or more other non volatile solid state storage devices. The memory 406, or alternatively the non volatile memory within the memory 406, includes a non transitory computer readable storage medium. In some implementations, the memory 406, or the non transitory computer readable storage medium of the memory 406, stores the following programs, modules, and data structures, or a subset or superset thereof: operating logic 420 including procedures for handling various basic system services and for performing hardware dependent tasks;a device communication module 422 for connecting to and communicating with other network devices e. g. , network interface 160, such as a router that provides Internet connectivity, networked storage devices, network routing devices, server system 164, etc. connected to one or more networks 162 via one or more communication interfaces 404 wired or wireless;an input processing module 426 for detecting one or more user inputs or interactions from the one or more input devices 414 and interpreting the detected inputs or interactions;a user interface module 428 for providing and displaying a user interface in which settings, captured data, and/or other data for one or more devices e.
