Quick Installation Notes

These notes should be used in conjunction with the LonFibre router data sheet and the

latest Echelon’s Router and Repeater User’s Guide 078-0018-01A

Power Connection and Supply

Warning - Power inputs are polarity insensitive.

Typical Power input: 24VDC @150mA, power on indicator green LED.

{Operating voltage: ± 10-50 VDC or 12-30 VAC}

Lon Copper Port Installation

These should be connected in accordance with the appropriate requirements as set
down by Echelon for the specific LonTransceiver type.

Fibre Port Installation

Fibre ports must always be connected so that a left port is connected to a right port of
the next node in the ring. Segments must obey the same rules; i.e. even if only two
nodes are connected, the left port of one must connect to the right port of the next.
All connections must be made with multimode or singlemode Fibre optic cable.
Minimum use of patch panel connections is recommended, as each patch introduces
optical loss.

Fibre Port LED indicators

1 ‘Solid green’ LED means the fibre port is receiving link signals from far node and

the fibre network is operating redundantly.

2 ‘Solid yellow’ LED means the fibre port is receiving link signals from far node

and the fibre network is operating as a ‘segment’ or ‘multidrop’.

3 ‘Fast Blinking yellow’ LED means link loss i.e. no link pulses received from far

end node.

4 ‘Slow Blinking yellow’ LED means port failure i.e. packets received on this fibre

port are corrupted, CRC packet errors or no packets received while port is
linked.

Other Status LED Information

Router LED indicators

1 “FIB” green LED means the service Fibre side of the router is active.
2 “TPX” green LED means the service Copper side of the router is active.
3 “PKT” green LED means a LON packet has passed thru the router.

Push Button Functions

1 “RSV” is the Echelon RTR-10 LON Router service button.
2 “FSV” is the Fibre Transceiver Neuron service button.

Mechanical Relay

The on-board mechanical relay provides node status of fibre ports by activating when

the fibre port link is lost or fibre port failure. The on-board mechanical relay provides

SPDT operation supporting the following voltages: 240VAC@5Amps,

120VAC@10/5Amps, 28VDC@10/5Amps
