1. Getting to know
LONWORKS® Communication Module
1.1 What is LONWORKS® Communication
Module ?
The Local Operating Network (LONWORKS® Communication
Module) communications module is an interface for
connecting IDEC SmartRelay onto a LON network.
The IDEC SmartRelay communications module has been
implemented as a Slave module for the IDEC SmartRelay
control module.
The module supports communication between the IDEC
SmartRelay Master and external LON devices via a LON.
The LONWORKS® Communication Module is a bus station on
the LON and allows the IDEC SmartRelay to communicate
with other LON devices.
What are the capabilities of the LONWORKS®
Communication Module ?
The LONWORKS® Communication Module presents the
current states of the LON stations to the IDEC SmartRelay,
which is thus able to use its logical functions and timers to
join them together. In the process, the LON signals can also
be combined with the signals of the local IDEC SmartRelay
inputs and outputs. The LONWORKS® Communication
Module then transmits every change of the output signal via
the LON.
The combination of IDEC SmartRelay and LONWORKS®
Communication Module gives the user a decentralized
controller functionality for the LON with the capability of
setting or changing parameters or operations quickly, simply
and without a programming device.

2. Mounting and wiring the LONWORKS®
Communication Module
2.1 General guidelines
The following guidelines should be observed when mounting
wiring your LONWORKS® Communication Module:
- When wiring the LONWORKS® Communication Module,
make certain that you follow all of the applicable and
legally binding standards. Observe all of the relevant
national and regional regulations when installing and
operating the device. Check with the local authorities
regarding the standards and regulations that must be
observed in your special case.
- Make certain that the device is de-energized.
- Use only approved bus cables.
- Make certain that the specified cable lengths are used and
that the correct terminating resistors are installed properly.
- The LONWORKS® Communication Module must always
be installed as the last module on the right of the IDEC
SmartRelay, since you may not install other expansion
modules onto the LONWORKS® Communication Module.

LONWORKS® Communication Module User’s Manual 2-2
Please notice:
- The LONWORKS® Communication Module must have its
own power supply (24 V AC/DC).
NOTE
This module may only be mounted and wired by qualified
personnel, who know and observe the generally applicable
guidelines and applicable regulations and standards.
Observe the assembly and disassembly instructions in the
IDEC SmartRelay manual.
WARNING
The expansion module may only inserted or removed when
the power is off.

LONWORKS® Communication Module User’s Manual 2-3
2.2 Wiring the LONWORKS® Communication
Module
To wire the LONWORKS® Communication Module, use a
screwdriver with 3 mm wide blade.
- You do not need to use wire end ferrules when clamping
the wires.
NOTE
After the installation, the terminals must be covered. To
protect personnel against unintentional contact with the
portions of the LONWORKS® Communication Module that
are conducting electricity, the appropriate national and local
standards must be observed.
The LONWORKS® Communication Module is a double-
insulated switching device.
A protective grounding conductor is not necessary.

LONWORKS® Communication Module User’s Manual 2-4
2.2.1 Connecting the power supply
The LONWORKS® Communication Module has been
designed to serve as a Slave module for the IDEC
SmartRelay controller. It must be connected to a 24 V AC/DC
supply voltage.
Please observe the relevant instructions that are found in the
product information that was included with your equipment as
well as the technical data regarding the permissible voltage
tolerances, main frequency and current consumption.

2.2.2 Connecting the LON
This connection is made using the two screw terminals A-B.
You can start the programming by pressing the “Service ¯”
button.
NOTE
Don't apply force when pressing the “Service ¯” button.
When contact has been made, the LED will light up in
orange.

3. Putting the LONWORKS® Communication
Module into operation
A LONMARK certified application was loaded into the LON
module at the factory.
3.1 Step-by-step
1. Interrupt the voltage to the IDEC SmartRelay.
(The IDEC SmartRelay and its modules do not have
power switches.)
2. Mount the LONWORKS® Communication Module
3. Connect the power supply to the LONWORKS®
Communication Module.
4. Connect the LON bus lines to the LONWORKS®
Communication Module.
5. Remove the label with the Neuron-ID from the
LONWORKS® Communication Module and stick it on the
network plan at the LONWORKS® Communication
Module's installed location. (The Neuron-ID is also given
as a bar code on the label.)
6. Apply power to the IDEC SmartRelay and LONWORKS®
Communication Module.
7. If multiple LONWORKS® Communication Modules have
been installed, repeat Steps 1 to 6 for each LONWORKS®
Communication Module.
8. To log a LONWORKS® Communication Module in on a
LON network, you can either press the “Service” button
or enter the Neuron-ID directly in the LON using the
Installation Tool or by reading the label with a bar code
scanner.
9. The LONWORKS® Communication Module is then
registered in the LON database and ready for operation.
10. For further details regarding the LON installation, please
read the corresponding documentation.
