12. L ON W ORKS Network Design L ON W ORKS Technology Review

13. Kinds of Control Algorithms Master/Slave  a single controller making all the control decisions  Single point of failure  Difficult to expand  Costly to install – more wiring needed to connect sensors and actuators  Proprietary programming  Proprietary solutions

14. Kinds of Control Algorithms Peer-to-Peer  Distributed control intelligence  No single point of failure  Easy to expand and add more devices  Less costly wiring installation  No home I/O wiring runs

15. Open and Independent Robust, reliable, proven device networking protocol on a chip Manufacturers of smart devices can get to market quickly End users no longer locked into single supplier Integrators can choose best of breed devices LonTalk is media independent LonWorks tools operate on multiple platforms Multi-industry standards group ensure interoperability

16. Look for the L ON M ARK Label 300+ members from 17+ countries ensuring plug-and- play operation Non-profit industry association  Includes manufactures, integrators, application developers, and end-users Establishes technical guidelines  Industry specific task groups Promotes the L ON M ARK standard and certifies product conformance Provides a resource of device information Governed by board of directors made up of industry members  Includes sponsor members and elected representatives  All members have a vote

17. Networking Technology Allows integration of device information across network of any size including the internet Requires the assignment of a logical identity for each device called the Domain/subnet/node address  Assigned by the network management tool Allows message packets to be isolated or forwarded by intelligent LonWorks routers

18. L ON W ORKS Network Elements Channel Network Tool Channel  Media to which devices are connected Device  Actuator, sensor, controller, or combination  LonMark Certified Network Tool  Installation tool  Human machine interface (HMI) Device

19. LonTalk Protocol Globally recognized standard ANSI/EIA 709.1 Designed for control applications – not data applications Includes all 7 layers of the ISO standard model for network communication Implemented on the neuron chip or equal processor Is media independent Is an open and published standard available to anyone Physical Connection Media Access Addressing & Routing Message Service Network Management Network Variables Neuron C Program Physical Media 7 Application 6 Presentation 5 Session 4 Transport 3 Network 2 Data Link 1 Physical

20. Network Variables The dynamic data sent or received by network devices Signal-type independent – temperature, pressure, volume, flow, etc. SNVT’s are standard network variable types as defined by the LonMark organization  Known and documented structure, size, range, etc. UNVT’s are manufacturer defined  Tools may require resource files to document data format

21. Configuration Properties Define device behavior such as setpoint, high limits, throttle, etc. SCPT’s are standard configuration property types as defined by the LonMark association  Known and documented structure, format, range, etc. UCPT’s are manufacturer defined  Tools may require resource files to present values in a meaningful way.

22. LNS  is LonWorks Network Services Network management platform Foundation for open & interoperable networks Provides a core set of management tools and connectivity options Client/Server architectures Supports configuration tools from multiple vendors Provides access to any point of network information from any point on the planet

23. LonWorks is about Distributed Control Intelligence Many small devices – sensors, actuators, controllers  Each containing a microprocessor that implements the LonTalk protocol Each device subdivides control functionality into objects called functional blocks  Could be I/O, controller, or system wide functions Each device sends/receives small message packets that contain control data Can create large, powerful, and flexible networks across LAN’s and WAN’s

24. LonWorks Network Program The network image is a collection of configured devices and their associated connections (aka network variable bindings) A network management tool is required to configure device behavior and to define the network variable connections  When the tool is finished it can go away! LonWorks uses an event driven control process

25. Demonstration: A Simple L ON W ORKS Network Create a simple L ON W ORKS network Review basic L ON W ORKS terminology

26. LonWorks Architectures

27. Simple Device Network Devices communicate with each other directly No network tool required after commissioning the devices Tool is required to perform network maintenance such as adds/moves/changes or device replacement Portable Network Management Tool

28. Local Client Applications LNS database resides on same PC as the network tool LNS communicates to devices via network interface hardware and/or software  Twisted Pair, Powerline, IP LNS Application and LNS Server PC LNS Application and LNS Server PC Internet

29. Remote Client Applications Remote client is an application that runs other than on an LNS Server PC  LNS Database is accessed over the network media or over IP It can be attached to any L ON W ORKS channel, including a L ON W ORKS /IP channel Requires the LNS Server application running at the PC where the LNS database resides  The LNS Server application supports up to 100 clients and 255 LNS databases opened simultaneously LNS Server PC Internet LNS Remote Client Application LNS Remote Client Application

30. Web Based Monitoring and Control Clients Any PC that can support a standard web browser interface  Internet Explorer, Netscape, Etc. Network data served up as HTML web pages from LonWorks webserver device  ILON100, iLon1000, Plexus, etc… Can perform monitoring and control of network variables but cannot perform network management functions Internet Netscape or Internet Explorer running at remote client

31. Internet/Intranet IP Backbone Internet to LonWorks routers (i.LONs) can be used to create one network by connecting remote locations over L ON W ORKS /IP channels LNS Server is not required for day-to-day operation up to 40 i.LON routers per L ON W ORKS /IP channel Time server may be required to synchronize message delivery across wide area networks Internet Devices in London i.LONs Intranet 1 (IP) Intranet 2 (IP) i.LONs Time Server (SNTP) Devices in Los Angeles Devices in Lisbon Devices in Hong Kong

32. LonWorks Topologies

33. Bus Topology A physical routing of the communication channel that includes a distinct beginning and end Must be doubly terminated at beginning and end Device to device wiring or short stubs Easiest to troubleshoot Difficult to expand when you need to add more devices

34. Free Topologies A flexible wiring structure of the communication channel that includes a ring, star, loop, or combination Can have long stubs to devices and tools, tap in anywhere on the channel Difficult to troubleshoot Easy to expand Easy to exceed media limits Requires one terminator installed anywhere on the channel segment T T

35. Backbone Topology Connects routers to a common backbone channel Typically installed in a bus topology and includes mostly routers, network tools, and systemwide control devices Can be high speed twisted pair – XF1250 Can be high speed IP channel Reserves bandwidth for network tools
