1 General Information Regarding the LON Bus
The LON (local operating network) is a multi-network compatible communication system for distributed
applications.
Central control tasks are broken down into subtasks which are then executed in a decentralized
fashion. The subtasks are executed at so-called nodes without placing any load on the bus system.
Functional units are assigned to the nodes, for example those required for ascertaining measured
quantities.
The system can be centrally controlled, operated and configured via the LON interface by means of an
LNS plug-in for a Windows application.
The LON is used primarily in building automation applications.
2 Overview
Series U228x-W1 and U238x-W1 energy meters consist of 5 objects:

3 Wiring
The most commonly used transmission medium for industrial and building management applications is
twisted pair copper cable, which is used together with the electrically isolated FTT-10A transceiver.
Both of the conductors can be connected to either pole, and installation is thus reverse polarity
protected.
Maximum transmission distances are influenced by the electrical characteristics of the cable and the
network topology. Utilized cables should comply with the stipulated specifications in order to prevent
interference during communication. Due to the possibility of reflections, only one cable type may be
used in any given bus segment.
3.1 Network Topologies
Where bus topologies are used, the individual devices are connected in parallel one after the other. A
bus terminating resistor must be used at each end. Only one bus terminator is required with free
topologies, but transmission distances are limited in this case.
The energy meters are not equipped with internal bus terminating resistors (see section 3.6 on page 3).

3.2 Recommendation
The following recommendation is based upon experience gained by Gossen Metrawatt GmbH during
installation and start-up of LON systems. The environment within which the cable is laid has a decisive
influence on correct cable selection, and must therefore be taken into consideration during the
planning stage. All generally applicable directives for laying control and telecommunications cables
must be adhered to during installation.
3.3 Use of Repeaters
If repeaters are used the bus signal can be refreshed, thus increasing maximum possible transmission
distance. Due to response characteristics, only one passive repeater may be included in any given bus
segment. The transition to other physical transmission media, and/or targeted forwarding of data
packets to individual bus segments, is accomplished by means of routers.

Specified values apply to total cable length and are only valid for the FTT-10A transceiver.
3.5 Cable Type
Inexpensive wiring is possible for applications in environments with minimal interference using the
following cable type: JY (ST) Y 2 ea. 2 x 0.8 mm with twisted wire pairs. The above specified
dimension of 0.8 mm refers to the diameter of the wire, which results in a wire cross-section of
0.5 square mm.
In most cases no shielding is required. It may be possible to eliminate communications problems
occurring in environments with excessive interference by connecting the shield at one end. If cables
are used which contain several wire pairs, it may be advantageous if the individual pairs are shielded.
Special LON bus cable can be used for highly demanding requirements.

3.6 Bus Termination
An adjustable bus terminator is frequently included in master stations which must be set in accordance
with the utilized topology. Additional bus terminators are required for bus topologies, and where
repeaters are used. These can be purchased as auxiliary LON component U1664 in top-hat rail mount
housing. Each unit includes a one-ended and a two-ended bus terminator.
4 Network Interface
4.1 Network Variables
Measured quantities and energy meter status information available within the network are defined as
standard network variable types (SNVT).
The software tools can be furnished with all information necessary for integration by accessing the
website of Gossen Metrawatt GmbH at www.gossenmetrawatt.com.

Network variables 116 … 148 are transmitted via LON when the cutoff date event occurs
(nviEnergyFrzTs == nvoActTime).
For cutoff date logging at regular intervals ...
nviEnergyFrzTs.year or
nviEnergyFrzTs.month or
nviEnergyFrzTs.day
... is set to 0 (placeholder or wildcard method)
All of the cutoff date function’s NVs are saved to non-volatile memory so that mains power
interruptions do not result in data loss.

4.3 Cutoff Date Function
By means of network variable "nviEnergyFrzTs" (index 115) it is possible to preselect the date and
time for the "freezing" of the meter reading, i.e. the momentary energy value status is copied in a
separate data area for subsequent read-out (cutoff date energies).
The point in time of recording the cutoff date energies can be found in network variable
"nvoEnergyFrzTs" (index 116). The energy values for tariffs 1-8 are supplied by network variables with
index 117 to 148.
The following agreements have been reached for setting the cutoff date:
- Point in time in the future: Cutoff date energies are updated at this point in time.
- Date in the past: no updating of the cutoff date energies.
- Present date, time in the past: current device time and cutoff date energies are imported in
memory.
- "0" as specification for the day, month or year serves as a placeholder: the cutoff date energies
are updated at each respective date.
- Everything set to "0" (placeholder) in date and time: cutoff date with device clock, every day at
midnight, first import immediately.
The network variable nvoEnergyFlowHrs indicates the number of operating hours. Operating hours are
only counted when start-up current has been exceeded. Only full hours are saved to memory.

Installing the Meter
The meter can be installed to a LON network by manually entering the neuron ID, or by triggering the
service pin message.
Status of the LON Node (Node State) and “Δ Lon” Message
The status of the LON node is indicated by means of a symbol to the right of the neuron ID.
Symbol
Status
c LON chip is configured (configured online)
n LON chip has no application (no application)
u LON chip is not configured (unconfigured online)
o LON chip is offline (offline)
Bus Symbol
The BUS symbol appears when the LON node in the meter transmits a data packet. The more
data packets are transmitted, the longer the symbol is displayed.
Wink Command for Identifying the LON Node
When a wink command is received, the neuron ID is displayed briefly.
