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. The conductor’s cross section must be at
least 0.60 mm. Examples of cable types:
Belden 7701NH, single-thread 1 x 2 x 0.65 mm, without screen
Belden 7702NH, single-thread 2 x 2 x 0.65 mm, without screen
Belden 7703NH, single-thread 1 x 2 x 0.65 mm, with screen
Belden 7704NH, single-thread 2 x 2 x 0.65 mm, with screen
LAPP UNITRONIC Li2YCY (TP), multi-thread 2 x 2 x 0.65 mm, with
screen
Dätwyler Uninet 3002 4P, single-thread 4 x 2 x 0.6 mm, with
screen
Cable length
A cable length must not exceed 1200m (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 conguring Lon devices on the control bus, the
highest device address that can be can be used is 127 (max. 120
controller in total)
AK-SM
AK-SM
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.)
Modbus topology
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
One repeater must be added for every 32 controllers. 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 conguring Modbus devices on the control bus,
the highest device address that can be used is 127 (max. 120
controller in total)
AK-SM
The wires are looped from device to device.
A is connected to A
B is connected to B.
The screen must be connected to the system device, all controller
and any repeaters.
A screen must always be looped from device to device.
The screen must not be connected to anything else.
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 oine
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
th e RMT;
• Oine web Programming
Launch oine web simulator(s) to allow full oine 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 bitmap le to crate custom images,
mapped with any congured system data point
• F TP (File Transfer Protocol)
Remotely connect, load and access system les (html web &
EDF device les) Retrieve data points
• Address Book
Save your most commonly connected site details to allow
for one click connection
• Tools

• Language
Compatible in multi- languages
The RMT tool is available from your Danfoss sales oce with
associated supporting documentation.
As the AK-SM uses IP networking standards to create remote
access it may be necessary to congure any site routers to allow
incoming connections, either from a LAN or WAN view. The gure
below shows a simple IP connection with the AK-SM connected to
a standard network router with a typical factory IP address range.
From within the LAN any remote connections should ‘point’ to
the master IP address of the AK-SM, in this example
http://192.168.1.100. If however the remote connection is on a
WAN then the LAN router may need to be congured to allow this
inbound connection, with the addition of the web port added tot
he end of the http sting.
Please refer to the port allocation table below for remote IP
connections

WAN IP 172.28.6.108
For WAN access port
forwarding is required
1. The port number is required to be typed
into the URL address ONLY if the web port is
NOT congured as 80. For example, if the port
number is congured as 8080, then Computer
A needs to type in ht tp: //192.168.1.100:8 080,
while Computer B needs to type in
http://172.68.6.108:8080 to access the website
of the unit.
2. If the port number is dened as default
number 80, then it is not necessary to type in
“:80” in the URL address, this is because the
HTTP protocol uses 80 as default port. If the
router port forwarding is correctly congured,
it is not required in WAN access either.

Notes for FTP port forwarding in AK-SM units
In AK-SM units, FTP service is a convenient way to download/
upload les and updating database/code. Open FTP server
ports to the public internet is not considered as a safe network
practice. To avoid these issues, Danfoss strongly suggests FTP
functionality in LAN network only . This would reduce the risk
of open FTP ports and enhance network security. However, to
make the FTP work on WAN side, it must have configured FTP
server port opened and forwarded to the public internet.

Refrigeration layout Wizard (used to dene your refrigeration
layout, grouping case with packs, forming associations)
One of the main features of the refrigeration layout wizard allows
the user to make use of a network scan. The principle is that the
wizard is initially used to initiate a network scan, discover and list
what is found. This discovery is then used to easily dene the
Pack and Case controller relationships (suction groups). The
wizard allows for easy drag and drop association, the net result is
that once completed the refrigeration layout is built in the AK-SM.
The Refrigeration layout Wizard can be used during a live connection to your AK-SM or can be used when programming oine.
limitations: Whilst the wizard will layout the Pack and Case
relationships, further controller conguration may be required.
Refer to section
any remaining conguration areas required. Currently the wizard
is intended for Pack and Case devices, any controls not designated as such will have to be congured using traditional cong
methods (see Conguration section).
Open the Refrigeration layout wizard and follow the described
steps, each step has some description for the available actions.
The following wizard screens are available in sequential order;
add, copy, remove)
Circuits (Input Evaporator controller name, view address, model,
add, copy, remove)
Suction Group mapping (Drag and drop your evap controllers
under each pack)
Summary (view your groupings before nishing wizard and thus
processing your selections to the AK-SM)
After the relevant networks have been selected an scanned the
‘Discovery’ screen will show all detected devices. Once satised
with the correct content press the forward button to continue
the wizard.
The ‘Compressors’ screen allows for custom text input. If working
oine (programming a database not being connected to a
AK-SM) the Add, Copy and Remove buttons can be used.
Double click the ‘Name’ line to enter a custom description for the
device. Pressing return will automatically focus on the next
device name in the list.
If your scanned list has known devices that are standalone (not associated with a Pack) these must be
mapped under ‘No Compressor’. Manually add a new
compressor and double click the model line and select
‘No Compressor’. When the nal wizard screen is
presented any standalone controls can be mapped under
this ‘No Compressor’ group.
The ‘Circuits’ screen follows the same principle as the Compressors screen.
Use the Add button when creating oine nodes. Double
click the ‘model’ line to bring up a selection of nodes
