The following chapter describes the available connections on
your AK-SM 850.
Please note that not all connection points are currently
active, please refer to the drawing below for more details
Connections
Your AK-SM supports both Modbus and Lon RS485 local bus
connections. For further detailed description of network
connections please refer to document ‘

Lon RS485
Follow standard topology guidelines for Lon RS485, with
particular respect to maximum cable length, when to use a
repeater and ensuring suitable resistors are in place.

Cable type
Cables twisted in pairs must be used, and they may be provided
with a screen. Some types of communication require a cable with
a screen to be used. The conductor’s cross section must be at
least 0.60 mm. Examples of cable types:
Belden 7701NH, single-thread 1 x 2 x 0.65 mm, without screen
Belden 7702NH, single-thread 2 x 2 x 0.65 mm, without screen
Belden 7703NH, single-thread 1 x 2 x 0.65 mm, with screen
Belden 7704NH, single-thread 2 x 2 x 0.65 mm, with screen
LAPP UNITRONIC Li2YCY (TP), multi-thread 2 x 2 x 0.65 mm, with
screen
Dätwyler Uninet 3002 4P, single-thread 4 x 2 x 0.6 mm, with
screen
When using the Lon RS485 network, ensure the
Term. Switch on the AK-SM is in the ‘ON’ position
(enable internal resistor). Any repeaters must
also have 120 Ohm resistor in place. Finally, en-
sure that the last controller on the network run
also has its end of line on line resistor enabled.
