being administered from the same PC the “_config.ini” file will be a copy of the
configuration file from the last Transceiver administered.
IV. Data Acquisition
a.
LONWORKS Protocol
•
The LonWorks protocol, also known as LonTalk protocol and the ANSI/EIA 709.1
Control Networking Standard, is developed and maintained by Echelon Corporation.
•
The protocol provides a set of communication services that allow the application program
in a device to send and receive information from other devices over the network over the
network without needing to know the topology of the network or the names, address or
functions of the other devices.

MOD9200LON LonWorks Transceiver Parameters
•
The MOD9200LON Transceiver is an application specific FTT-10 (Free Topology
Twisted-Pair) network device communicating at 78 KBPS. It receives data from up to
fifty (50) wireless sensors and updates its data registers on a real time basis.
•
Different functional profiles is available for different applications. Please refer to
Appendix A for specific models.
•
The NVO (Output Network Variable) names will correspond to the MOD9200 Input
Register 0 through 199, Digital Output Register 100 to 149 and Analog Output Register
100 to 149. The NVI (Input Network Variable) names will correspond to the Output
Register 0 to 49 and Analog Output Register 0 to 49.
•
The data registers of the MOD9200 can be assigned non-consecutively based on the
network variable maps in
Appendix A
. User can assign specific data registers needed
and skip to the next applicable data register using the Trs Programmer software setup
tool.
