i .LON 1000 Internet Server User’s Guide 7-9
Red Communication with the device has failed. Usually, this occurs when no
response is received from a device to which a request was made.
Yellow Normal, but the Time Check failed for this device.
Red/White Device is disabled.
Important: Leave the Configuration Server running. It must be
running when you configure L
ON
W
ORKS
/IP devices using a
L
ON
W
ORKS
network management tool.
The steps above create a "virtual wire" out of any group of IP addresses. The members of
this group can now share information seamlessly, and appear as a standard L
ON
W
ORKS
channel to the L
ON
W
ORKS
network. In the following section we describe how to use the
LonMaker™ Integration Tool to bind two nodes together across this new “virtual” wire. If
you’re experienced with connecting L
ON
W
ORKS
devices together, you’ll notice that the
procedure below is exactly the same as if we were using standard L
ON
W
ORKS
routers.
Designing a LonMaker Network Containing L
ON
W
ORKS
/IP
Channels
The i. LON 1000’s router application allows you to connect a L
ON
W
ORKS
channel to a
L
ON
W
ORKS
/IP channel for transporting L
ON
W
ORKS
data packets over IP. Once the
L
ON
W
ORKS
/IP channel is established (as described in the previous section), you should define
the i. LON 1000 devices using a network installation tool such as the LonMaker Integration
Tool (version 2.0 or higher). This will allow information to pass from the L
ON
W
ORKS
/IP
channel to the L
ON
W
ORKS
channel on the other side of the i .LON 1000 router.
Figure 7-10 shows an example of a L
ON
W
ORKS
network which contains a L
ON
W
ORKS
/IP
channel. Note that if you are running LonMaker version 3.0 or higher, your LonMaker PC
can be a part of the L
ON
W
ORKS
/IP channel as well (i.e. it could be connected to the IP
channel rather than the FTT-10 channel).
