What is LONWORKS® Technology?
-LON (Local Operating Network) is a decentralised control network for
building automation, in industry, in transport, in telecommunications and
in many other areas.
-The communication of intelligent sensors, actuators and operator units
of a LON® network is the result of a protocol already implemented in
the Neuron®-Chip, this is the LonTalk® protocol.
3
Philosophy of LONWORKS® Networks
LONWORKS networks display an event controlled system with
decentralised intelligence.
Contrary to conventional DDC technology all information is not
immediately available since the network inputs are only updated
after an event change of the sender.
LONWORKS nodes are not normally able to sample (or poll) the
connected nodes to check if they have information.
LONWORKS nodes communicate via network variables which are
logically connected together.

Structure of a Network Variable
For communication via network variables it is essential that only
network variables of the same type are connected together.
Every network variable consists of a Name and a Type, but the
Name is purely a description.

Network Variables
Generally there are two different types of network variables:
SNVT = Standard Network Variable Type
UNVT = User-defined Network Variable Type
11
Network Variables
Generally a LON node has an input network variable and an
output network variable (nvi.. and nvo..).
Input network variables are used to accept information from
other LON partners.
Input network variables can also be defined by the manufacturer
as configuration variables. These are used at the same time to
store the settings in a non-volatile memory.
Output variables are also used to forward information to another
partner on the LON network.
Output network variables must be set in the program, they
cannot be manually controlled.
12
Options for Message Services
Unacknowledged
Unacknowledged sending of messages on the network.
Unacknowledged Repeated
Unacknowldeged sending of messages on a network with a
repeat function, to make the transfer more secure.
Acknowledged
Acknowledged sending of messages on the network, in which
the sender waits for confirmation from the receiver, which says
that the receiver has received the message. If there is no
confirmation then the message is repeated.
13
Options for Message Services
Request Response
This is also a confirmed service but with which the receiver
queries information from a node
This service is usually only used with gateways which query the
LON nodes. (PXR in polling operation, OPC, ....)
14
Node Addresses
Neuron ID
Each LON node has a unique identifier (Neuron ID). This
identifier is usually only used on installation of a LON node. In
this way each node gets a unique logical address in the
network.
Domain / Subnet / Node Addresses
Each LON network has its own domain. In this domain the
nodes are distributed in different subnets, depending on the
number of nodes and the structure of the network. In each
subnet all nodes have their own unique node number.
Domain
Domain ID
Subnet 1
Node 1
Subnet 255
Node 127
Node 1
Subnet ID
Node 127
Node ID
15
Types of Addresses
LON communication mainly uses the following methods of
addressing:
Subnet / Node Adressing
normally used when a node speaks directly to another node.
Group Adressing
normally used when a node speaks simultaneously to more
than one node.
Broadcast Adressing
used when a node speaks simultaneously to more than one
node but because of the restrictions in the LON chip, it is
not possible to use group addressing.
16
Heartbeat
LON nodes send their information on the network partially cyclical with a so-called
heartbeat.
LON nodes expect a heartbeat on their input variables. If this cyclical heartbeat is not
received then many nodes use their own saftey value instead of the value on the network
variable.
Example DESIGO RX:
If the Occupied message is not received for a long time then the node changes
automatically into the Occupied status.
General cyclical sending to all variables can however also be critical, since, for example,
configuration variables such as setpoints are saved in the flash memory. Perpetual
cyclical writing would destroy the flash memory!
17
Transceiver
Devices in LON networks have different transceivers, some of
this are:
FTT-10A
Transmitter for LON node with its own voltage supply.
LPT-10
Transmitter for LON node which obtains its voltage supply
from the LON bus.
Use of both types of transceivers is allowed.
18
Number of LON Nodes in the Network
The following format can be used to work out the maximum
number of nodes allowed per network segment:
(Number of FTT*2) + (Number of LPT) ≤ 128
Background for the limitation is not the addressing requirement
but the load on the bus.
If the number of permissible nodes in the segment is exceeded
then extra infrastructure components are needed.
19
Link Power
LON nodes without their own voltage supply
receive their voltage from a LINK Power voltage
supply.
These devices supply the LON bus with 42V d.c.
voltage and always contain a built-in bus
terminator.
20
Repeater
Repeater (physical repeater)
Simply forwards all packets between two channels
Has no memory
Only one repeater is allowed per channel
2-way and 3-way repeaters
Option to include terminators
Physical repeaters repeat everything – even disturbances !!!
21
Repeater
Repeater (logical Repeater)
Receives the whole message in memory
forwards all the packets if configured as a bridge, but only if the domain
IDs are in agreement
transparent
Limitations:
Time delay for transmission of data
100 messages per second (reduced bandwidth) in comparison to
FTT10A with 320 Messages per second
22
Router
Router
Interface between different media.
learning Router
Monitors the data traffic and „learns“ the topology on the level of the domains /
subnets. Packets are then forwarded selectively between channels.
Attention!: If a network is modified then a learning router must be reset.
configured Router
Here the internal routing table is defined using a network management tool.
Limitations:
Time delay for transmission of data
100 messages per second (reduced bandwidth) in
comparison to FTT10A with 320 Messages per second
23
LON Proxy Node
L-Proxy
Interface between separate LON networks
Connection to different domains
Guaranteed limitation for system integrators
Several LON devices in one box
Separate commissioning for each manufacturer possible
Simple mapping of the required network variables using external
configuration files
Dynamic network interface
Extra properties such as active polling,
or extension of the Neuron-Chip
limitations using addressing
24
Network Interface
It is necessary to install a network card in the PC to be able to
access the network with the commissioning tool
A built-in LON card is usually used in desktop PCs
PCLTA (Echelon)
25
Network Interface
For Laptops there is an array of other network cards:
PCC10 (Echelon)
PCMCIA Card
Attention : this card does not function with all Laptops!
XLON-USB (DH Electronics)
USB Interface
NIC-USB (Loytec)
USB Interface with the possibility running of 8
simultaneous applications multiplexed on one
interface. An LPA Analyser can also be registered
on this hardware.
26
LON Node Summary
A LON node can typically have up to 62 network variables.
A network node has only a maximum of 15 address table
entries. This puts a limit on addressing and in the group
memberships.
Node for our applications have a Transceiver FTT-10A or
LPT10. Other transceivers are not compatible.
27
Interoperability
LONMARK Interoperability Organisation campaigns for interoperability
between the different applications
Interoperability guidelines for development of LON
applications are published by the LONMARK Interoperability
Organisation
LONMARK objects and functional profiles for different applications
are compiled by LONMARK
LONMARK certifies LON nodes with the LONMARK Logo
28
Interoperability
The basis for interoperability is the strict use of SNVTs
SNVTs are also fixed by LONMARK and published in a
SNVT Master List
In the Master List the network variables, range of values,
resolution, etc are defined.
SNVT Master List is a living document!
Attention: Newer versions are backwards compatible, but not the
other way round. So, it may happen that, for example, a new
variable is added or the value range from existing variables is
extended.

Interoperability
The exclusive application of SNVTs however does not guarantee
interoperability
Only the network variables are defined in the Master List,
not their applications – this means that different
manufacturers could, for example, interpret individual values
differently.
In the past this often happened with applications concerning
blinds. This demands caution when working on existing
projects.

Configuration Properties
Implementation of configuration properties:
using configuration network variables (nc#)
using direct memory access SCPTs (only with Neuron-Chip-Hosts!)
using SCPTs which use LonTalk file transfer protocol
Configuration properties versus network variables (nc#):
applying configuration properties the (limited) number of network variables which can be declared on a node is
not restricted!
configuration properties can be any length and can contain any size of array (limited by the available memory)
an individual SCPT can be used by several objects (Engineering!)

Network Management Tools
There are ‚binding tools‘ available to install and set up a LON network.
Amongst others there are:
RXT10 (SBT)
LonMaker (Echelon)
NL220 (Newron System)
40
Network Management Tools
There is a licence fee for all open tools whcih is demanded by Echelon on
installation. This is normally carried out using a dongle or using a licence
linked to the computer.
Using the RXT10 tools the licence fee is not imposed since this is solved
by Echelon and SBT in another way.
