Lon RS485
Follow standard topology guidelines for Lon RS485, with
particular respect to maximum cable length, when to use a
repeater and ensuring suitable resistors are in place.
Cable type
Cables twisted in pairs must be used, and they may be provided
with a screen. Some types of communication require a cable with
a screen to be used.
Examples:
For Lon RS485, MODBUS, RS485 Third party - General ‘EIA 485’ recommendation:
- Belden 9841, 24 AWG, 1 pair with screen
- Belden 3107A, 22 AWG, 2 pairs with screen
- Smartwire 043006AL, 22 AWG, 1 pair with screen
- Alpha wire 6453, 22 AWG, 1 pair with screen
- Carol C4841A, 24 AWG, 1 pair with screen
- Dätwyler Uninet 3002 4P 4 pairs with screen(CAT5 cable)
For Lon TP78 communication - Level 4 cable general
recommendation:
- Belden 7703NH, 22 AWG, 1 pair with screen
- Belden 7704NH, 22 AWG, 2 pair with screen
- Smartwire 106500, 22 AWG, 1 pair with screen
Wires with larger cross-section than AWG 22 is not recommended.

MODBUS field bus
Address switch
(used when configuring
multiple SM units
When using the Lon RS485 network, ensure the Term. Switch
on the AK-SM is in the ‘ON’ position (enable internal resistor).
Any repeaters must also have 120 Ohm resistor in place.
Finally, ensure that the last controller on the network run also
has its end of line on line resistor enabled.
Cable length
A cable length must not exceed 1200 m (4000 foot). A repeater
(Part # 084B2241 ) must be used for longer lengths.
Lon RS485 Topology
The cable connection must be connected from controller to
controller, and no branches are allowed on the cable. If the
cable length exceeds 1200 m a repeater must be inserted. If the
data communication cable runs through an electrically noisy
environment which impairs the data signal, one or more repeaters
must be added to stabilise the signal.
When configuring Lon devices on the control bus, the
highest device address that can be can be used is 127 (max.
120 controller in total)
Remember to use 120 Ohm terminators on the last filed bus
controller device. Note also to enable (ON) the Term. Switch,
located above each network connection point on the AK-SM 800,
this will enable the built in terminator(s) for each network point
on the AK-SM 800.
Conductors
The two wires are looped from device to device. There are no
polarisation requirements. (On some controllers, the clamps are
designated A and B. On others there is no designation. Otherwise
the connections are identical.) If a screen is used, it must be
connected to the system device and any repeaters. A screen must
always be looped from device to device.
The screen must not be connected to anything else. (The screen is
earthed inside the screen and must not be earthed in any other
way.)

This example shows the AK-SM 800 series RS485 version used in
the middle of a network run. In this example ensure that both
ends of the controller run are fitted with 120 Ohm terminators.
Over the past several years Danfoss has offered a version of the
AK-SC 255 and AK-SC 355 which has a LonWorks® option of TP78.
As a physical layer of the LonWorks® protocol these older systems
offered x5 network connection points. Due to the global phase
out of the TP78 option by the OEM, Danfoss has made available a
special order version of the AK-SM 880 (080Z4009), which will
come pre-installed with a LonWorks® TP78 options card. This
‘special’ version of the AK-SM 880 is designed to support
customers who wish to migrate from existing AK-SC 255 and
AK-SC 355 TP78 systems. Please note that this version of the
AK-SM 880 is not intended or available in Europe’ , and offers x4
TP 78 connection points.
The cable must be with screen. The cable is connected from
controller to controller, and no branches are allowed on the cable.
If the cable length exceeds 1200 m a repeater must be inserted. If
the data communication cable runs through an electrically noisy
environment which impairs the data signal, one or more repeaters
must be added to stabilise the signal.
‘The System Manager can be inserted in middle of network,
ensure System Manager termination is OFF. Refer to Danfoss
document ‘RC8AC802 Data Communication’.
When configuring MODBUS devices on the control bus, the
highest device address that can be used is 199 (max. 120

A new feature in 08.045 is initiated when installing and powering
up your AK-SM 800 series for the first time, a wizard style guide
will appear on the local screen. The idea of this initial settings
wizard is to allow the Commissioning user to configure the basic
parameters required for setup. Note that once a AK-SM 800 series
database field has been set, the initial settings wizard will no
longer be displayed, the work-flow is only designed to run once
on new systems.
The following screens will be presented in the initial settings
wizard;

AK-SM 800 Host Network Configuration
The following section describes how to configure your AK-SM 800
to facilitate a host network. The AK-SM 800 host network can
support up to a max of 10 interconnected AK-SM800 units. The
practice of interconnecting on a host network allows for support
of larger applications or to separate discrete control applications
onto dedicated AK-SM 800 units. For example HVAC and
Refrigeration control could be done via dedicated AK-SM 800
units. The host network requires an IP Ethernet connection to
each AK-SM 800 unit. Once configured all AK-SM 800 units can be
viewed in a consolidated format via a web browser of via the
StoreView Desktop. Note that the consolidation view is only
available via the browser or StoreView desktop, not local screens.
Master device configuration
Make sure you have suitable fixed IP or DHCP addresses for each
of your AK-SM 800 units you wish to deploy on the host network.
Also ensure all Ethernet cables are connected.
Make sure the rotary address switch (located behind keypad) is
set to 0. Zero defines your AK-SM 800 as the master node on the
host network.
Navigate to the Configuration/Comm screen and check your unit
has a valid Master IP address. Set the ‘Host Network’ question to
Enabled. Enter the number of System Manager units you intend
to have on the host network.
After all changes are complete reset the master AK-SM 800 unit
Make sure the rotary address switch (located behind keypad) is
set to the appropriate number. For example, setting the switch to
1, will define the unit as a slave device address 1. All units in the
host network must have unique host network addresses (address
0 is always master).
Once you have set the rotary address switch, reset the unit and
allow the AK-SM 800 to boot up. Navigate to the Configuration/
Comm screen and check your unit shows the Master IP address.
Set the ‘Host Network’ question to Enabled. Enter the number of
System Manager units you intend to have on the host network
(matching what you have already set in the master unit)
Make sure the slave unit has a valid IP address.
To validate the host network has been correctly configured and
all System Managers can see each other refer to the Master unit
‘info’ screen. Here you should see all AK-SM 800 on the host
network
This section describes the steps in making an initial connection to
the (screen-less) AK-SM 810 product. Once initial connectivity has
been established, the system can be configured using standard
workflows, as all menus, features and functions are identical to
the AK-SM 820.
1. Set the rotary address switch to position 9 and power up unit.
By setting address 9 the SM810 will be set to a fixed IP address
of 192 .168.1.161
2. Connect to the AK-SM810 via a suitable Ethernet cable to your
PC, which should be running either RMT or StoreView Desktop
3. Using the address 192.168.1.161 connect to the AK-SM 810, log
in using either factory set User Name and Password (Supervisor
\ 12345) or what has previously been defined
4. After system configuration has been completed, it is
recommended to apply a known fixed IP address in the
Configuration > Comm screen. By adding a fixed IP address it
will ensure subsequent connections can repeatedly be
performed without issue.
5. Power Off the AK-SM 810
6. Set rotary switch to 0 (is used as Master), else set to desired
slave address
7. Power unit up and validate connection by using static IP
address used in the Comm screen
8. Make sure that the web port is not changed to port 1041.
Doing so will render the unit unaccessible!
Port 1041 is reserved for AK-ST 500 service tunnelling and does

Numeric keypad
Note: The AK-SM 800 supports standard USB keyboards. This may
offer a more convenient method of text input whilst in the
commissioning phase. Use the USB socket (located behind the
front panel lid).
Steps below to display your preferred language in the local
screen;
1. Press the Configuration button, and if required enter the
factory default user name and password (Supervisor, 12345)
2. It is strongly recommended to always change the default
password. Failing to do so poses a sever security risk also on
protected networks
3. Using the arrow keys, navigate to the ‘System’ menu.
4. Using the down arrow, navigate to the Language line and
select your required language
5. Select your language for ‘Display’. The unit will then request
a reset.
The Remote Management Tool (RMT) is a PC software application
tool that is designed to support the AK-SM, both in
commissioning and service. The RMT is a powerful tool that
allows full offline programming and simulation of AK-SM
databases, providing the opportunity to save considerable on site
commissioning times. In addition, the RMT tool has various
remote management features, facilitating complete system
management. Creating custom images for the AK-SM web
browser is also another function of the RMT tool. The following
features can be seen in the RMT;
• Offline web Programming
Launch offline web simulator(s) to allow full offline AK-SM
database programming, with controller simulation you can
fully pre-program your application and save the resulting
database to USB for on site install.
• Program simulation
From within the web browser session simulate board and point
variables to test calculations and system behaviour
• Custom Graphics
Use your own Jpeg or bitmp file to create custom images,
mapped with any configured system datapoint
• File Transfer
FTP is not available from firmware v08.080 and later.
Remotely connect, load and access system files (html web &
EDF device files) Retrieve datapoints
• Address Book
Save your most commonly connected site details to allow for
one click connection
• Tools

The RMT tool is available from your Danfoss sales office with
associated supporting documentation.
Your AK-SM 800 offers both Online and Offline configuration
methods. Understanding the concept of these difference
methods will help in determining the use of the Upload or
Download feature.
Upload = Retrieve field bus controller device settings and sync
with AK-SM 800 database
Download= Send controller device settings held in the SM800 to
the field bus controller
Online Configuration:
Online configuration is where the site application has live control
devices (i.e. Danfoss AK-CC 550) connected to a field bus and the
SM800 will be used to configure the settings and configuration of
these control devices. Since the AK-SM 800 has the ability to offer
online and offline programming it is important to sync the AK-SM
800 database BEFORE attempting any online configuration or
setpoint changes. The UPLOAD function is used to ‘retrieve’ the
control device settings and update the SM800 database. Once
the upload is performed and completed any subsequent device
setpoint changes done via the SM800 will get immediately sent to
the field device (no need to perform upload/download)
Upload Example: A contractor arrives on site and connects the
control devices to the field bus. The contractor performs a
network scan to ensure all nodes on the network are present.
After the network scan the contractor performs an upload
function, which will sync the AK-SM 800 database with the
settings that exist in the field bus control devices. The upload will
take the settings from the control devices and sync to the SM800
database. Once the upload is complete the contractor can
continue to configure via the AK-SM 800 and change settings in
the control devices.
Offline Configuration: With the use of the RMT tool, a
comprehensive AK-SM 800 offline configuration can be
accomplished without even being connected to any control
device or AK-SM 800. For many customers and users this
represents a considerable time saving in the configuration phase
(assuming the site definition is known).
By selecting the appropriate AK-SM 800 simulator in the RMT tool
you can simulate (in an offline state) a AK-SM 800 installation,
complete with control device selections (known as EDF
selections). The EDF device selections come pre-set with factory
parameter settings. Once your application has been defined and
any EDF setting changes made, the simulator (including all EDF’s)
can be saved in a AK-SM 800 database format. This saved AK-SM
800 database file can then be later loaded to a live AK-SM 800 on
site and all the control device settings (contained in the EDF files)
can be ‘pushed down’ to the relevant connected live control
devices to configure them. [Note that for some Danfoss controls
the Main Switch is required to be in the off mode before settings
can be written].
To ensure the original ‘offline’ AK-SM 800 database (which holds
all the control EDF device settings) is in sync with the live control
devices the ‘DOWNLOAD’ function is required. It is critical that
the AK-SM 800 is in sync with the live control devices since the
parameters in the SM800 database could be different to the
parameters residing in the live control device(s). Use the
Download function when you have performed an offline
configuration of your application.
Download Example: A contractor opens the RMT tool and decides
to fully configure the AK-SM 800 which will be used in a
supermarket in the following week. He knows how many and
what type of devices will be on site and decides to deploy the
RMT tool to offline program the AK-SM 800 database. After
selecting the device type(s), via the EDF selections the contractor
decides to configure some key parameters per the customer
application. Finally the AK-SM 800 database is saved to USB and
the following week the contractor arrives on site. The AK-SM 800
on site is connected to all the control devices via the filed bus and
a network scan is performed to check field communications is
valid. The contractor loads the AK-SM 800 database and performs
a DOWNLOAD function to ensure that the settings made offline
now get sent to the devices on the field bus.
The Upload and Download function can be found under
Configuration>Network Nodes.
Note: Due to field bus speeds, quantity of data sets and devices
the Upload or Download function can take several minutes. On
sites with a large number of devices Danfoss recommends
selecting 30 to 40 devices at a time and repeating the procedure.
The purpose of the Device Management feature is to control the
amount of active device files at any given time (max 1000), thus
saving system RAM and improving system performance.
The updated file management screen are effective with AK-SM
800 software version 8.021.
By default the most common controller types are set to ‘Enabled’.
Groups which are not enabled (Disabled) are not actively loaded
into system RAM. To enable any controller group simply double
click the group and from the action menu select ‘Enabled’.
As device files are Enabled / Disabled the file counter will reflect
the total number of active device files. The term ‘Files’ in this case,
is actually the total number of device selections available. For
example, a controller such as an AK-CC 550 has 10 different
applications. Therefore each application is a ‘selection’. Then the
number of selections is multiplied over several software versions
that may be available for that device.
The maximum number of active selections per front end will
now be 1000
This means that once the controller selection reaches 1000, you
will need to disable groups of those devices not being used, in
order to keep this number at, or below 1000. A message will be
presented to alert if the capacity has been reached.
Using the network scan or Refrigeration layout/scan wizard will
automatically enable any group is detected on a scan (even if the
device file was previously set to ‘disabled’).
EDF’s not packaged within the ‘MAI’ file for the AK-SM 800 will be
available via the Danfoss Support web site http://www.ak-sm800.
danfoss.com. When installing the latest AK-SM 800 firmware
package, recently released / new EDF device files may not be
included.
The ‘Interim ED3’ collection of files are the ones which were not
included in the MAI (master application install), and can also
include either new files or updates of existing files after the
software release date.
In this situation, there are two recommended methods to update
your AK-SM 800 system.
Note: Only version 08.07x and above supports device files that
have an extension of .ed4
Option 1 – Local screen - USB flash drive
a) Download latest EDF zip file from the AK-SM 800 support site
b) Review the enclosed ‘ReadMe’ document to see what’s
included in this file collection
c) Copy the relevant file into the root directory of a USB flash drive.
Note, only 1 file can be loaded at a time
d) Log in as Supervisor at the AK-SM 800
e) Insert USB flash drive and follow menu prompt to install the
required ‘ED3/4’ and Device.ls3 files (only one at a time). Note
that the Ephrases.tbl file is not currently set up to be loaded via
USB. – see the RMT section below.
Make sure to always disable all device groups that are not in use.
When performing a re-scan, device groups are activated
automatically if any devices within the groups are detected.
Exceeding the max number of active devices may result in
unexpected list behavior.
The ConfigurationComm screen allows important routing and
IP configuration to be set. With correct settings you will be able
to remotely connect to your AK-SM 800 series controller. Note
that after making any changes in this screen a system re-set is
required to save settings.
Use DNS (Yes/No)
Domain Name System- select to YES to enable this feature and
take advantage of your networks naming service. When
answering YES (and with DHCP set to NO), the preferred host
name line appears together with Domain Server IP address. There
are two lines for the domain server IP or DNS name. Note that if
DHCP is set to yes, the domain server IP address lines are not
visible.
Use DHCP (Yes/No)
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a standard
network protocol that dynamically distributes network
configuration parameters, such as IP addresses. If you connect
the AK-SM 800 controller to a valid DHCP server the controller will
obtain an address automatically. The management (renewal,
binding and lease) of the IP address is fully automatic. It is
strongly recommended that DNS is used in conjunction with
DHCP so to keep track of dynamic addressing.
Use IP address as backup if DHCP fails (Yes/No)
If a non-reliable DHCP service is suspected, you can insert a fixed
IP address that will be used in the event of a DHCP failure. Under
normal network conditions this feature would not normally be
required.
Master IP address
Your AK-SM 800 series controller is a so called ‘master’ when the
rotary address switch (located behind keyboard cover) is set to 0.
This automatically assigns the unit as a master and is used when
operating with multiple AK-SM 800 units (host network)
Preferred Hostname
If DNS is set to YES then a preferred hostname line appears.
Selecting YES to the preferred hostname will enable Master node
name line (see below). If DNS is set to No, the site name and unit
name (site name-unit name) will be used by default.
Note: Site Name and Unit name should be configured under the
ConfigurationSystem screen.
Master node name
Enter a name here, used to identify the AK-SM 800 controller on

Host Network (Enabled / Disabled)
If your AK-SM 800 will be part of an interconnected host network
of AK-SM 800 units, select ‘Enabled’ to this question. If there is
only 1 AK-SM 800 controller then leave set as Disabled.
SM800 on network (1-10) – enter how many units will be

Node to be used as (Master / Slave) – Select ‘Slave’ for all
units with rotary address switch set to 1 or above
No of external Internet (1-3)
If your AK-SM 800 series controller will be made accessible from
an external location (outside of LAN/Internet), then this feature
needs to be enabled with at least 1 external internet ID. Once at
least 1 external internet line is added the type (see below) can be
entered. The use of the external internet configuration is to
ensure remote web browsers or Store View Desktop can access
your AK-SM 800 from outside of the local area network.
Type (IP/ Name) – This is a new feature added in software
version V08_027 and higher. Select IP for static addressing
or Name if using DHCP
Internet IP / Name address – Enter IP or Name (based on
above selection)
Web server port (user configurable)
Used to allow HTTP traffic / support browser access to your AK-SM
800 controller. Danfoss strongly recommends changing the
factory default to something other than port 80 if used outside of
LAN network or exposing to the Internet. For example, change
web server port to 5080.
From firmware G08.080 FTP access is removed and not available
for security reasons.

General IT security / Recommendations
The AK-SM 800 series device is an embedded controller designed
to be installed behind an appropriate router and firewall. The
AK-SM 800 itself does not offer routing or firewall options,
additional security steps must be taken to secure appropriate
levels of security dependent on the application needs.
Danfoss recommends changing the default user name and
password, used to log into the AK-SM 800 series controller.
Danfoss recommends changing the default web server port if
used outside of secure LAN network.
Ensure the AK-SM 800 is behind a well configured firewall(i.e. port
forwarding rules, FTP access (FTP is disabled from firmware
version G08.080.054), HTTP access). A well configured router/
firewall will help in;
Firewall between our controllers and the Internet
The ability to designate the ports/protocols allowed to our
controllers
The ability to limit and monitor in-store IP connections to our
controllers.
The AK-SM 800 controller supports auto negotiated 10/100
Ethernet speeds.
The AK-SM 800 controller supports auto negotiated full / half
duplex Ethernet communications.
From firmware G08.080 FTP access is removed and not available
for security reasons.
Once your AK-SM has been configured, general navigation and
daily use is done via the Dashboard screen. The Dashboard
screen acts as the central system home page, where further
system details can be reached. The Dashboard and subsequent
device screens have been developed to provide an easy to use
navigation environment for the user, where typical status and
setting can be found.
Connecting to your AK-SM
Using a standard web browser or your StoreView Desktop
application, enter your AK-SM IP address
The factory default User name &
password:
User Name: Supervisor
Password: 12345
Once the correct user name and password has been entered the
Dashboard screen will load. The Dashboard screen will only
reflect what your application configuration has been set to. For
example, if your application does not have any HVAC configured
the Dashboard will not show the HVAC panel. Dashboard panels
are automatically generated depending on the configuration, no
user action is required to build the panels.
