2   LONWORKS N2E Bus Technical Bulletin
              Introduction

              The LONWORKS® N2 Bus is a peer-to-peer network that allows DX-9120
Application   or DX-9121 controllers (Version 3) to communicate with each other and
Details       to send event-initiated data to the Network Control Module (NCM350 in
              North America or NCM361 in Europe). The LONWORKS N2E Bus is
              different and separate from the Metasys® N2 Bus.
              There are also two types of N2E Bus: one has devices with the TP78
              transceiver and the other has devices with the FTT10 transceiver. The
              two types cannot be connected.
              The following Metasys controllers can reside on the LONWORKS TP78
              N2E Bus:
              •   DX-9120 controller that features a Neuron 3150 chip and a
                  TP78 transceiver
              •   NCM350/361 equipped with a LONWORKS interface card
                  (NU-NET201-0) and a TP78 transceiver
              The following Metasys controllers can reside on the LONWORKS FTT10
              N2E Bus:
              •   DX-9121 controller with a Neuron 3150 chip and an FTT10a
                  transceiver
              •   NCM350/361 equipped with a LONWORKS interface card.
                  (NU-NET202-0) with a FTT10a transceiver
              Figure 1 shows an example of a network in which the NCM350/361 uses
              the LONWORKS N2E Bus.

                      As with the Metasys N2 Bus, devices over the LONWORKS N2E Bus are
                      wired in a daisy-chained fashion, with multiple devices connected in a
                      series. (However, you can use a short stub length to connect the
                      LONWORKS N2E card. Refer to Connecting Bus to NCM350/361 in this
                      document for details.) The LONWORKS N2E Bus uses solid or stranded
                      twisted pair wire. You cannot connect coaxial or fiber optic cables directly
                      to these devices.

                      The LONWORKS network is a local operating network that was developed
About                 by Echelon® Corporation. The network is built around the Neuron chip, a
LONWORKS              microprocessor that combines three Central Processing Units (CPUs) into
Technology            one chip. The Neuron chip is an integral component of the DX-9120 and
                      DX-9121 controller.
                      Various physical layout media options are available. The LONWORKS N2E
                      Bus uses twisted pair cable and either the TP78 transceiver or the FTT10
                      transceiver. The DX-9120 controller has a TP78 transceiver, and the
                      DX-9121 uses an FTT10 transceiver.
                      The LONWORKS network uses the LonTalk™ protocol, a software
                      language for field device communication. This protocol uses the Open
                      Systems Interconnect (OSI) reference model and features all seven
                      communication layers for interoperability among control devices. For
                      more information on LONWORKS technology, contact the Echelon
                      Corporation.
                      The LONWORKS N2E Bus, NU-NET201-0 and NU-NET202-0
                      LONWORKS N2E card, and DX-9121 and DX-9120 controller have
                      LONMARK® interoperability certification.

                      Metasys system implementation of LONWORKS network is:
Metasys
Implementation        •   peer-to-peer communication, which enables control intelligence to
                          reside at the controller level
                      •   high speed network (78 K baud)
                      •   DX-9120-8454 or DX-9121-8454 controller (Version 3), which
                          contains the Neuron chip
                      •   twisted pair cable as the only media choice (two wire, shielded or
                          unshielded)
                      •   support of a LONWORKS Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) card
                          (NU-NET201-0 or NU-NET202-0) installed into the NCM350/361.
                          (The NCM101/102/401 or NCM200 cannot use this component.)

4   LONWORKS N2E Bus Technical Bulletin
            •   support of multiple DX-9120 or DX-9121 controllers per
                NCM350/361 (See DX-9100 Extended Digital Controller Technical
                Bulletin [LIT-6364020] for details.)
            •   support of two end-of-line terminators (NU-EOL201-0 or
                NU-EOL202-0)

            The LONWORKS N2E Bus requires Metasys Release 7.01 or later.
            DX-9120 and DX-9121 devices are defined as N2E Bus devices through
            Metasys Person-Machine Interface (PMI) or Data Definition Language
            (DDL). The device type that identifies the DX-9120 and DX-9121 is
            called “DX91ECH.” The LONWORKS N2E is identified by the system as
            N2E (N2 Echelon LONWORKS).
            The Metasys software does not distinguish between the DX-9120 (TP78)
            and DX-9121 (FTT10) devices, and both are configured in the same way.
            DX-9120 and DX-9121 controllers cannot reside on the same N2E Bus.
            The LONWORKS N2E Bus is wired to the N2 Bus terminal block of each
            DX-9120 or DX-9121 controller. If you want supervisory communication
            for downloads, monitoring, and event reporting at the
            Metasys Operator Workstation (OWS), the NCM350/361 is a required
            component. Port 2 on the NCM350/361 is defined as N2E, and a
            LONWORKS ISA card is installed into ISA Slot 2 of the NCM350/361. In
            this arrangement, the NCM350/361 is a supervisory controller but does
            not take part in the exchange of data between the controllers or
            communicate on a peer-to-peer basis.

            The LONWORKS N2E Bus is a peer-to-peer network operating at 78 K bits
Theory of   per second (78,000 baud).The network enables DX-912x controllers to
Operation   send and receive data among themselves without a supervisory system.
            This communication is made possible by the controller’s Neuron network
            processor, which communicates with the other Neuron network
            processors. Both analog and digital data may be transmitted from
            one controller to another, and any one piece of data--one analog value or
            block of 16 digital values--may be sent from one controller to up to
            16 other controllers.

Communication         The LONWORKS N2E Bus carries all communication between the
Types                 NCM350/361 and the DX-912x controllers and among the controllers
                      themselves. The types of data that go across the bus include:
                      •   commands from the NCM350/361 to the DX-912x
                      •   automatic reporting of alarms and changes-of-logic states from the
                          DX-912x to the NCM350/361
                      •   responses from the DX-912x to the NCM350/361, including
                          identification and requested data values
                      •   complete databases for the DX-912x controllers
                      •   time synchronization message from the NCM350/361
                      •   analog and binary point data shared among DX-912x controllers

Poll Priorities       Poll priority levels establish how often the NCM350/361 polls a DX-912x
                      controller to determine whether the device is online or offline. The
                      LONWORKS N2E has four priority levels: 0, 1, 2, and 3, where 0 is the
                      highest. For example, a Priority 2 device is polled more often than a
                      Priority 3 device.
                      You set the priority level when defining the DX-912x. We recommend
                      that you keep the priority levels for all DX-912x controllers at 3, the
                      system default. You may, however, assign higher priorities to a limited
                      number of DX-912xs if your application requires faster online/offline
                      notification for those DX-912x controllers. Realize that the poll priority
                      has a reverse effect on response times. In other words, as you assign more
                      devices to Priority 0, bus traffic increases and Change-of-State (COS)
                      reporting performance decreases.

                      The components of the LONWORKS N2E Bus are the NCM350/361,
Components            LONWORKS N2E card for NCM350/361, DX-912x controllers, end-of-line
                      terminators, ferrite clamp kit, and twisted pair wire.
                      Note: The LONWORKS N2E Bus does not support the use of repeaters,
                      surge protectors, or fiber optic modems.

NCM350/361            The NCM350/361 (NU-NCM350/361-8) is an optional component but
                      required if you need to download, monitor, or report COSs to a
                      supervisory system. Each NCM350/361 can support one
                      LONWORKS N2E Bus.

LONWORKS   If you use the NCM350/361 on the bus, a LONWORKS ISA card
N2 Card    (NU-NET201-0 or NU-NET202-0) is required. Install this card into Slot 2
           (right-hand slot) of the NCM350/361. You may notice a colored button on
           the top of the card. If you press this service button, the Neuron chip sends
           out a message over the network with its unique ID code. This has no use
           with a Metasys system. If you press the button, it does not affect the
           network or any Metasys component.

End-of-Line         You must install End-of-Line (EOL) terminators (NU-EOL201-0 or
Terminator          NU-EOL202-0) at each end of the bus to balance the
                    LONWORKS communications signal. You must attach a small length of
                    2-wire cable to each terminator for connection to a controller. The unit has
                    screw terminals. The top terminal set is used; the other set is not. You can
                    mount the terminator on DIN rails or next to the controller with
                    double-sided tape or Velcro fasteners.

Ferrite Clamp Kit   A ferrite clamp kit is included with the LONWORKS N2E card. This kit
                    contains components that you need to install on the LONWORKS N2E Bus
                    wires that connect to the NU-NET201-0 and NU-NET202-0 card. The kit
                    contains two large clamps, two small beads, and two tie wraps. You need
                    to install the kit to meet United States Federal Communications
                    Commission (FCC) and European CE Mark emission requirements.

Cable                 A balanced 120 ohm twisted pair cable is required. Use 22 AWG solid or
                      stranded wire. As an option, you can use shielded cable. Refer to Table 4
                      for a list of recommended wire.

                      The LONWORKS N2E Bus provides exceptional performance over an
Design                equivalent N2 Bus configuration for alarm reporting and intercontroller
Considerations        communication if you take full advantage of the peer-to-peer
                      communication capability of the DX-912x. However, if the bus is heavily
                      polled by a Network Control Module (NCM), the bus can become
                      overloaded, resulting in decreased bus performance. You may notice this
                      performance problem when displaying system summaries and graphics.
                      The LONWORKS Bus is ideal for many devices where a COS is rarely
                      reported. The LONWORKS Bus can become a bottleneck if COSs are sent
                      at a rate of more than one per second for an extended time. Use the

                      document to help you configure N2E Bus installations. The worksheet
                      allows you to calculate the message rate generated by a particular NCM
                      configuration.
                      The N2E Bus must be engineered differently from the N2 Bus in order to
                      match the performance of an N2 Bus. Follow these guidelines to ensure
                      adequate response time.

             •   Avoid using Binary Data (BD) and Analog Data (AD) objects mapped
                 to Control System (CS) Object attributes. Instead, map critical points
                 to Logic Result Status (LRS) or unused Analog Outputs (AOs), which
                 can be direct mapped to Binary Input (BI) and Analog Output Setpoint
                 (AOS) objects.
             •   Map all XT/XTM expansion points to Metasys objects directly.
             •   Avoid using Metasys Trend and Point History features.
             •   Do not put alarm warnings on Analog Input (AI) objects.
             •   Split systems so there are only 15 to 20 analog values in each.
             •   Use DX program module capabilities rather than Graphic
                 Programming Language (GPL) for analog calculations or data sharing.
             •   Avoid polling (see the LONWORKS N2E Bus Poll Estimation Worksheet
                 in this document).
             •   Use peer-to-peer network variables to move data from one DX to
                 another.
             •   Map only binary items that do not contain bits with rapid COS. Avoid
                 this situation by either:
                  -   transferring a slow DI1 to an LRS logic variable in the
                      Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) module and then mapping
                      the LRS to a BI object in the NCM
                  -   or
                  -   moving rapid COS type bits (a pulse counter input, for example)
                      to an XT/XP module

                           Note:     The additional cost of an XP module or extra
                           configuration may well reduce overall costs by improving
                           system performance.

Cable Type   The LONWORKS N2E Bus requires a balanced 120 ohm twisted pair cable
             with two wires. You can also use shielded cable.

                                                LONWORKS N2E Bus Technical Bulletin   11
Number of             The address range of DX-912x controllers is 1 to 255, and up to
Devices               30 DX-912xs can be physically connected to one NCM over the
                      LONWORKS N2E Bus. For acceptable performance on installations with
                      high communication traffic, the number of controllers is normally fewer
                      than 10 per N2E Bus. You can connect multiple NCMs through the
                      N1 LAN (Local Area Network) with each NCM having its own
                      LONWORKS N2E Bus, which means that a system can have several
                      LONWORKS N2E Buses.
                      For additional details, refer to DX-9100 Extended Digital Controller
                      Technical Bulletin (LIT-6364020).

Bus Length            A maximum of 1200 meters (4000 feet) of daisy-chained cable is allowed
                      from the NCM350/361 to the farthest DX controller, including any stub
                      lengths. We do not support repeaters to extend the distance of the bus
                      length.

Metasys N2 Bus        The NCM350/361 supports one Metasys N2 Bus in addition to the
Support               LONWORKS N2E Bus (Figure 1). The Metasys N2 Bus supports all
                      existing Metasys Application Specific Controllers and System 91
                      controllers except the LONWORKS DX-9120 and DX-9121.
                      When defining the NCM in the Global file in DDL, configure the
                      LONWORKS N2E Bus as Port 2 (physically Port 6 of the NCM350/361)
                      and the Metasys N2 Bus as Port 1. When defining DCDR devices in the
                      NCM File in DDL, the Metasys N2 Bus is Trunk 1 and the
                      LONWORKS N2E Bus is Trunk 2.
                      We do not recommend use of the N2 Bus and the N2E Bus on one NCM
                      except for very small installations where performance is not critical or the
                      communication load is light (for example, small extensions to existing
                      installations that provide acceptable performance). If in doubt, install
                      separate NCMs for N2 Bus and N2E Bus devices.
                      For any communication required between a device on a Metasys N2 Bus
                      and a device on a LONWORKS Bus, use the standard peer communication
                      provide by the N1 LAN and the NCMs.
                      IMPORTANT:           The Design Considerations section of the Dual N2 Bus
                      Application Note (LIT-6363145) is not applicable to the Metasys N2 Bus of an
                      NCM that also has a LONWORKS N2E Bus.

12   LONWORKS N2E Bus Technical Bulletin
                If you want to use peer-to-peer communication for an existing network,
Upgrading       the LONWORKS N2E Bus can replace a single Metasys N2 Bus
Metasys         installation. However, these rules must be applied:
N2 Bus to
LONWORKS N2E    •   If the cable of an existing Metasys N2 Bus is the correct type, you can
Bus                 reconfigure the N2 Bus as a LONWORKS N2E Bus. However, only the
                    NCM350/361 and DX-9120 or DX-9121controllers can reside on the
                    LONWORKS N2E. Any Metasys controllers other than DX-912xs that
                    currently reside on the bus, such as the DX-9100 and Variable Air
                    Volume (VAV) controllers, must be removed. Also, because the
                    LONWORKS N2E does not use the REF wire, tape back the REF wire
                    at each device that is being replaced with a DX-912x.
                •   The LONWORKS N2E Bus is designed to take advantage of the
                    peer-to-peer communication capabilities of the DX-9120 or DX-9121.
                    Make sure that communication with the NCM and Operator
                    Workstation is provided only for monitoring and internetwork
                    functions and does not involve continuous data transfer between
                    controllers and the NCM.
                •   To reduce communication between DX-912x controllers and the
                    NCM, use the Metasys AI and BI object mapping capabilities of the
                    DX-912x, and avoid the use of BD and AD objects for alarm
                    monitoring via CS objects.
                In summary, an N2 Bus configuration with complete dependence on the
                master-subordinate communication between the NCM and the DX-9100
                controllers does not provide equal performance when transferred directly
                to the LONWORKS N2E Bus with the DX-912x. However, a LONWORKS
                N2E Bus, when correctly configured, provides superior performance over
                an equivalent N2 Bus configuration for alarm reporting and intercontroller
                communications.

                When extending a small installation of DX-9120 controllers, you may
Upgrading       want to replace the DX-9120 controllers with DX-9121 controllers. The
LONWORKS N2E    FTT10 transceiver used in the DX-9121 is now preferred within the
Bus from TP78   building controls industry for the LONWORKS field bus. The DX-9120 was
to FTT10        discontinued except as a repair part in March 2001.
                The overall performance of the DX controller on the N2E Bus is the same
                with TP78 or FTT10 transceivers. (FTT10 transceivers offer the advantage
                of a free topology network structure and a line power option in
                non-proprietary, open LONWORKS networks.)

                      To upgrade an N2E Bus from TP78 to FTT10, change the following
                      components:
                      •   DX controllers
                      •   mounting bases
                      •   LONWORKS N2E card in the NCM 350/361
                      •   end-of-line terminators
                      Refer to the Ordering Instructions section of this document for the
                      component ordering codes. When upgrading, you do not have to change
                      the following:
                      •   field wiring, sensors and actuators
                      •   Metasys software and database configuration
                      •   DX controller configuration in the GX Software Configuration Tool

                      It is possible to calculate how long it takes for a network point on the
Calculating           DX-912x to broadcast a change in state or value to all other DX-912xs.
Timing                Doing so helps you determine how many points to share across
Between               controllers. To make this calculation, use the following equation:
Peer-to-Peer
Devices               (Number of Peer-to-Peer Modules * 0.5 sec) +
                      (Number of Destination Connections of the Changed
                      Module * 0.1 sec) + 0.4 sec

Example               One Network Analog Output (NAO) point shared with five DX-912xs
                      Number of Peer-to-Peer Modules = 1 (NAO)
                      Number of Destination Connections = 5 (DX-912xs)
                      Transmit time for one network point change to be broadcast to all
                      controllers:
                      (1 module * 0.5 sec) + (5 connections * 0.1 sec) +
                      0.4 sec = 1.4 seconds
                      Note: This calculation assumes that all nodes are online and
                      communicating. If one or more nodes are offline, the transmission time
                      required is greater.

                      Installation Procedures

                      When installing LONWORKS N2E Bus wiring throughout a building, be
Preliminary           aware of the following:
Information
                      •   Follow all National Electrical Code (NEC) and local code restrictions.
                      •   Do not exceed the device maximums given in this document.
                      •   Do not run bus cables close to transformers or high frequency
                          generating equipment.
                      •   Run low voltage bus cables separately from line voltage and power
                          cables.
                      •   Do not connect any bus wire to the COM terminal on the
                          DX-9100-8990/6/7 or DX-9121-8996/7 terminal board. The
                          LONWORKS N2E Bus does not use these terminals.
                      •   If shielded cable is used, ground the shield at one location only
                          (normally at the NCM350/361).
                      •   Use solid or stranded 22 AWG (0.65 mm) diameter cable. Do not use
                          thinner gauge wire (24 AWG or greater), because it can break easily
                          and limits the total bus length to less than the specified maximum
                          length.

                      In order for the NCM350/361 to be connected to and communicate over
Installing            the LONWORKS N2E Bus, a LONWORKS ISA card is required. As part of
LONWORKS              installation, the card’s I/O address factory setting is verified and the card
N2 Card into          installed into the second ISA slot (right-hand slot) of the NCM350/361.

                      1. Turn power off at the NCM350/361.
                      2. Verify that the I/O Address on the card is set to the factory default of
                         0340h (Figure 8). The address is set with Switches S1, S2, and S3.

             4. Return power to the NCM350/361.

             The LONWORKS N2E Bus is connected to the NCM350/361 at its
Connecting   LONWORKS N2E card. A ferrite clamp kit is provided with the card. This
Bus to       kit contains two clamps, two beads, and two tie wraps that must be
NCM350/361   properly installed onto the N2 Bus wire to meet FCC and CE Mark
             emission requirements. Refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11.
             1. Cut a small piece of N2 Bus wire about 15 cm (6 inches). Use this
                wire as a stub length.
                        Note:       If a longer stub length is required, up to 3 meters
                        (10 feet) is allowed. Also, if the NCM350/361 you are
                        connecting is at the end-of-line, a stub length is not needed.
                        See Figure 11.
             2. Remove the N2E Bus screw plug terminal from the LONWORKS N2E
                card. It is labeled on the card as ST1.

                      3. Referring to Figure 10, install the ferrite clamps, beads, and tie wraps
                         to the stub length. Note that each wire is looped once around the small
                         beads before it is connected to the screw plug terminal. The tie wraps
                         keep the two large ferrite clamps from slipping off the wire. Cut off
                         the excess length of tie wrap.

                      4. Connect the stub length to the screw plug terminal, stripping back
                         enough wire to make the connection. There are no + or - terminals
                         because this network is not polarity sensitive.
                      5. Using standard wire screws or nuts, connect the free end of the stub
                         length to the N2E Bus wires that lead to the other controllers
                         (Figure 11).
                      Note: If the NCM is at the end of the bus segment, install an end-of-line
                      terminator to the screw plug terminal. (You need to install a small section
                      of N2E Bus wire to the terminator in order to connect it to the screw plug.)
                      You need a terminator only if the NCM is at the end of the bus.
                      6. Reconnect the ST1 screw plug terminal to the card.
