Concept
LonWorks
Overview
Applications
LonWorks is both an existing standard and
hardwaredevelopedbyEchelonCorporation.
Echelon'sstated goalisto establishacom-
modity solution to the presently daunting
problemsof designingandbuildingcontrol
networks.
TheresultisLonMarkInteroperabilitywhich
makesitpossiblefor independent network
devices to operate together over a
LonWorksnetwork.The LonMark program
was developed to address interoperability
issues. As a result, the LonMark
Interoperability Association Task Groups
(LonUsers Groups) were developed. The
taskgroupsdeterminethateachdeviceon

TheLonWorkscommunicationsstructureis
similarto that ofalocal areanetwork(LAN)
inthatmessagesarecontinuallyexchanged
between a number of processors. A
LonWorks system is a determined local
operatingnetwork(LON). LON technology
offers a means for integrating various
distributed systems that perform sensing,
monitoring, control, and other automated
functions. A LON allows these intelligent
devices to communicate with one another
throughanassortmentofcommunications
mediausingastandard protocol.
LONtechnologysupportsdistributed,peer-
to-peercommunications. Thatis,individual
network devices can communicate directly
with one another without need for a central
controlsystem.A LON is designed to move
sense and control messages which are
typically very short and which contain
commands and status information that
triggeractions. LON performanceisviewed
in terms of transactions completed per
secondand responsetime.Controlsystems
do not need vast amounts of data, but they
do demand that the messages they send
andreceiveareabsolutelycorrect.Thecritical
factor in LON technology is the assurance
ofcorrectsignaltransmissionandverification.
An important LonWorks benefit is the
network’s ability to communicate across
different types of transmission media.The
NEURON chip is the heart of the LonWorks
system. The NEURON chip's commu-
nication port allows for the use of
transceiversforother media (such ascoax
andfiberoptic)tomeetspecial needs.
LonWorkscontroldevicesarecallednodes.
Physically,eachnodeconsistsofaNEURON
chipanda transceiver.With proper design,
thenodes become buildingblocksthatcan
beapplied to controlavarietyof tasks,such
aslightingorventilating,integratingavariety
ofcommunicationsmedia.
The tasks which the nodes perform are
determined by how they have been
connected and configured. Because
hardware design, software design, and
network design may be independent in a
LonWorks-basedsystem,anode’sfunction
can be programmed to accommodate the
networks in which it will be used.
standards and models to be used by
particularapplicationsandcreateacommon
platform for presenting data. A standard
network variable type (SNVT) facilitates
interoperability by providing a well defined
interface for communication between
devices made by different manufacturers.

Node
Arrangements LonWorks nodes can be addressed either
individuallyor in groups.A groupcan contain
up to 64 nodes, and one LonWorks network
can support 255 groups. Furthermore, any
node can be part of 15 different groups. A
subnet, very similar to a group, can contain
127 nodes. A domain is the largest
arrangement of nodes with a single domain
able to handle 255 subnets. Thus a domain
canhandle32,385separate nodes. A single
nodemaybeconnectedto no more thantwo
domains.
The group structure has the advantage of
allowinganumber ofnodestobereached at
only one address.This method reduces the
recordkeepinginsideeachchiptoaminimum,
allowing faster operation. However, high
efficiencyindividualaddressing can bedone
at all levels of a LonWorks system. The
address table of a node contains entries for
the group type and size and tells the node
howmanyacknowledgmentsto expectwhen
itsendsa message. It also tells the NEURON
chipwhichdomaintouseandthenodegroup
member number, which identifies an
acknowledgment as coming from the node.
Theaddress alsocontainsatransmittimer,a
repeattimer,a retrycounter,areceivetimer,
and the group ID.
There are a number of trade-offs between
network efficiency, response time, security,
andreliability.Generally,LonWorksdefaultsto

The LonTalk protocol, built into the chips, is
the operating system that coordinates the
LonWorks system. It offers four basic types
ofmessageservice.
Themostreliableserviceis acknowledged (or

Collision
Detection
Network
Management Dependingonthelevelofagivenapplication,
aLonWorksnetworkmayor maynotrequire
the use of a network management node. A
network management node performs
managementfunctions,such as:
• Find unconfigured nodes and
downloadtheir networkaddresses.
• Stop, start, and reset node
applications.
• Accessnodecommunicationstatistics.
• Configurerouters and bridges.
• Downloadnewapplicationsprograms.
• Extract the topology of a running
network.
TheLonTalk protocolusesauniquecollision
avoidance algorithm which allows an
overloaded channel to carry near to its
maximum capacity, rather than reducing its
throughput due to excessive collisions
between messages. When using a
communications medium that supports
collision detection, such as twisted pair, the
LonTalk protocol can optionally cancel

is detected by the transceiver. This option
allowsthenode toimmediatelyretransmitany
packetthat hasbeen damagedbyacollision.
Without collision detection, the node would
wait the duration of the retry time to notice
thatnoacknowledgmentwasreceived.Atthat
timeit would retransmitthepacket,assuming

For unacknowledgedservice,anundetected

wherea message is sent toa node or group

Routers and
Bridges A router (or bridge) is a special node that
consistsoftwoconnectedNEURON chips,each
connected to a separate channel (see figure
below). Routers and bridges pass packets
backandforthbetweenthesechannels.There
are four types of routers. A repeater is the
simplest form of router, simply forwarding all
packets between the two channels. A bridge
simply forwards all packets which match its
domains between the two channels. Using a
bridge or repeater, a subnet can exist across
multiplechannels.A learningrouter monitors
the network traffic and learns the network
topology at the domain/subnet level. The
learning router then uses its knowledge to
selectively route packets between channels.
Like a learning router, a configured router
selectivelyroutes packetsbetween channels
byconsultinginternalroutingtables.Unlikea
learning router, the contents of the internal
routing tables are specified using network
managementcommands.
Initially,eachroutersetsitsinternalroutingtables
toindicatethatallsubnetscouldlieoneitherside

below, generatesamessageboundfornode2.

that subnet 2 lies below it. The router then
comparesthesourceanddestinationsubnetIDs
and, since they are different, the message is
passed on. Meanwhile, learning router 2 also
passes the messageon, makinganappropriate
notationinitsinternalroutingtablesregardingthe
locationofsubnet2.
Suppose now that node 2 generates an
acknowledgment. This acknowledgment is
pickedupbylearningrouter1,whichnownotes
the location of subnet 1. Learning router 1
examinesitsinternalroutingtables,and,noting
that subnet 2 lies below, passes the message
on.When the messageappearson subnet2,it

Wiring
Installation
VLT adjustable frequency drive
contains dangerous voltages
when connected to line power.
After disconnecting from line,
wait at least 14 minutes before
touching any electrical com-
ponents.
Only a competent electrician
should carry out electrical
installation.Improper installation
of motor or VLT can cause
equipment failure,serious injury
or death. Follow this manual,
National Electrical Code (USA)
and local safety codes.
WARNING
!
CAUTION
!
CAUTION
!
Electronic components of VLT
adjustable frequency drives are
sensitive to electrostatic dis-
charge (ESD). ESD can reduce
performance or destroy sensitive
electronic components. Follow
proper ESD procedures during
installation or servicing to
prevent damage.
It is responsibility of user or
installer of VLT adjustable
frequency drive toprovide proper
grounding and motor overload
and branch protection according
to National Electrical Code (USA)
and local codes.
DANGER
!
Wiring
The adjustable frequency drive generates a
carrier frequency with a pulse frequency
between 3 kHz and 14 kHz.This results in
radiated frequency noise from the motor
cables.It isvery importantthatthe LonWorks
cable be isolated as much as possible from
the drive output cabling to the motor. Use
shieldedwire ratherthantwisted-pair.Do not
run LonWorks cabling and motor cables in
parallel or in close proximity to one another.
Ensurethatthe driveis properly grounded.

Resource
files A LonMark interface file (.XIF extension)
provides the host processor with device
information. With this, it is possible to design a
LonWorks network without the adjustable
frequency drive being physically present.
The resource files (VLTLON.XIF and
DanfossVSD_03.*) can be downloaded from
the Internet site www.danfoss.com/drives.

The LonWorks option card contains a NEURON
chip with a unique address. After hardware
installation, initialize the LonWorks option card.
Addressingnodes on theLonWorksnetwork
is performed at installation time by an
installationtool ornetworkmanagementtool.
Addressingrequirestheretrievalof a node’s
NEURON ID.TheNEURON IDisa48bitnumber
that identifies every manufactured NEURON
chip.There are several methods by which the
network software will initialize the drive
automatically. The network can recognize the
drive without action beyond proper
installation. The card is then ready to be
programmed for network operation. TheVLT
LonWorks option supports three additional
methodsofaddressinganode:
1. Service Pin - There are two
momentary-contact service switches that
send the NEURON ID over the network. If the
network software prompts the action, press
either service pin (SW1 or SW3) to transmit
the NEURON ID over the network. The service
pin locations are shown in the illustration in
Terminator and Service Switch Locations in
this manual.
2. Query and Wink - The LonWorks option
card is shipped with a domain of “0” and
subnet of “1.” Upon receiving the wink
command, the on-board green status LED
flashes so that the installer can locate the
node.The chip sends out its Neuron ID over
the network in response to the query
command.
3. NEURON ID Label - The VLT LonWorks
option card has a NEURON ID label that
displays the NEURON ID as a 12 digit
hexadecimal number. The installer can
manually enter the NEURON ID during
installation.
The drive may also be added to the network
upon initialization.
