User Guide | AK-System Manager, AK-SM 800 Series
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.)

Mid network connection
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.

First time startup
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;
LANGUAGE (this selection will also set the system units of measurement)
DATE/TIME PREFERENCES USERS/PASSWORDS COMM
After completion of the settings wizard the AK-SM 800 Series will request a reset, where settings will saved. Commissioning activities can now continue using Web wizards and control screens
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

User Guide | AK-System Manager, AK-SM 800 Series
Slave device configuration
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

Connecting to AK-SM 810
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
not provide access to the web interface.

System Upload / Download
When to use Upload / Download function.
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.

Device Management (Configuration/System/Device Management)
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.

IP Configuration and suggested security settings
The ConfigurationComm 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 ConfigurationSystem screen.
Master node name
Enter a name here, used to identify the AK-SM 800 controller on the router.
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 on host network
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.
IP Port Use Notes
80 web browser This port is user configurable but factory set to 80
20 & 21 RMT tool (from version 4.15 HTTP transfer is supported) This port is user configurable only in firmware prior to G08.080
25 E-mail E-mail output
3001 XML Used for XML communications
1041 Service tool (ST500 ver. 3.29d and higher) used for tunneling through SM800 series to AK2 controller

User Guide | AK-System Manager, AK-SM 800 Series
FTP Server port (user configurable)
The AK-SM 800 series controller uses ‘Active’ FTP. Used to transfer database and EDF files. Danfoss strongly recommends changing
the factory default to something other than port 21
FTP Data port (user configurable)
The port used to support file transfer
Network timing support (NTP)
Use this function (if supported by your network) to sync the AK-SM 800 real time clock over the network, known as NTP. Requires NTP sever address and Time Zone offset to be programed.
Note: Time Zone offset can be configured under the ConfigurationTime screen
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.
