iii Preface The i.LON® SmartServer is a low-cost, high-performance controller, network manager, router, remote network interface, and Web server that you can use to connect LONWORKS®, Modbus, and M-Bus devices to corporate IP networks or the Internet.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instruction manual, may cause interference with radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help. • Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. IC Compliance Statement – Class B This Class B digital apparatus meets the requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations of ICES-003. VCCI Compliance Statement – Class B ITE This is a Class B product based on the standard of the Voluntary Control Council for Interference (VCCI) for information technology equipment. If this equipment is used near a radio or television receiver in a domestic environment, it may cause radio interference. Install and use the equipment according to the instruction manual.

v Welcome The SmartServer is a low-cost, high-performance controller, network manager, router, remote network interface, and Web server that you can use to connect LONWORKS , Modbus, and M-Bus devices to corporate IP networks or the Internet. You can connect the SmartServer to a LONWORKS TP/FT-10 channel using the LonTalk connections on the hardware and a high-voltage 100/240V AC mains connection. You can connect the SmartServer to a PL-20 LONWORKS channel through the high-voltage 100/240V AC mains connection. You can also connect a special PL-20 model of the SmartServer that has an external coupling circuit to a single-phase or three-phase external coupler. The SmartServer hardware includes a RS-232 port for connecting external GSM modems, M-Bus and Modbus devices, and other device types, and a RS-485 port for connecting Modbus devices and other device types. In addition, the SmartServer has two digital inputs, two digital outputs, and two pulse meter inputs for connecting electric, gas, and water meters. Once you have wired all the connections for the SmartServer, you can connect the SmartServer to TCP/IP networks using its RJ-45 10/100 BaseT Ethernet port. You can also connect models of the SmartServer that have built-in 56K V.90 analog modems to TCP/IP networks using their RJ-11 telephone line ports and a dial-out connection. Optionally, you can connect the RS-232 console port on the SmartServer to a computer running a terminal emulation program such as Windows HyperTerminal. This enables you to configure the SmartServer using its console application. Note that you should configure the SmartServer with its built-in Web pages whenever possible. Purpose This document describes how to assemble, mount, and wire the SmartServer hardware. It also describes the service buttons and LEDs on the SmartServer hardware. Audience This guide is intended for Echelon’s customers, OEMs, system designers, and integrators with an understanding of control networks. Models There are 13 models of the SmartServer available for use on TP/FT-10 free topology and PL-20 power line channels. This includes the following: • Eight high-voltage TP/FT-10 models that include none to all of the following options: IP-852 routing, programmability, and modem. • Four PL-20 models that include none to all of the following options: IP-852 routing and programmability. • One PL-20 model that includes an external coupling circuit. The external coupling circuit enables the PL-20 model to communicate over virtually any AC or DC power mains.
