You need 1 adapter for each i-Vu® Link/Open Link that is connected to a LonWorks network segment. Make sure you order the model that matches your network topology. See the Echelon website (http://www.echelon.com) for your local Echelon sales contact.

You can damage the SLTA-10 if it does not have its own isolated power supply.

1 Create a control program in Snap

TIP

To format a LonWorks address

LonWorks Integration Tool

NOTE

1 Create a control program in Snap

When you create a control program for each type of LonWorks device, use the following Network I/O microblocks:

• One ANI, ANI2, BNI, or BNI2 to read each element of interest in an nvo SNVT

• One ANO, ANO2, BNO, or BNO2 to write to each element of interest in an nvi SNVT

The SNVT definitions in Appendix A (page 14) may help you determine whether you need an analog or binary

microblock.

All Lonworks addresses should be assigned to "lonworks://" only when setting up address strings in EquipmentBuilder. The

An example of a LonWorks address:

lonworks://0/1/2/3ff5/108/0/0/0

Details:

lonworks://domain_index/subnet/node/nv_Number(Selector in HEX)/SNVT Type/NV Element/ Property/group

is used to define these addresses.

• group is always 0 (zero)

• Property = 1 for ANI/BNI

• Property = 0 for ANO/BNO

Carrier does not support a Domain Length of 0 (zero)
