SmartServer

Step 1: Install the i.LON SmartServer software

1. Before installing, check www.echelon.com/ilon for the latest i.LON

SmartServer service pack and updates. See the installation instructions

included with the service pack or update for more information.

2. Insert the i.LON SmartServer DVD into your computer. If the installation

program fails to start, navigate to your DVD-ROM drive and run

setup.exe.

3. Install the SmartServer software. To do this, click

Install Products, click

Echelon i.LON SmartServer Software, and then follow the instructions

in the Setup Wizard.

Step 2: Connect the SmartServer hardware

1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect your SmartServer to an IP network that

can communicate with your computer.

2. If your computer is not on the 192.168.1 subnet, open a command prompt

and type the following command:

route add 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 %computername%

If you are running Windows Vista

™

on your computer, you need to open

the command prompt with administrator privileges. To do this, click Start,

type cmd in the search box, right-click cmd.exe, and then select Run as

Administrator

If you receive a “The parameter is incorrect” error after entering the route

command, replace

%computername%

with the IP address of your computer.

3. Open Internet Explorer 6 or later and enter the following URL:

192.168.1.222. Your SmartServer home page appears.

4. Click the Login button.

5. If a login dialog appears, enter ilon for both the User Name and the

Password and then click OK. The i.LON SmartServer – Welcome Web

page appears.

Step 3: Set the SmartServer IP address

1. Right-click SmartServer near

the top of the navigation pane

in the left side of the Web page,

point to Setup on the shortcut

menu, and then click

TCP/IP.

2. The

Setup – Local i.LON

SmartServer

Web page

appears.

3. Configure the IP and DNS

properties for your SmartServer.

Step 3: Continued

4. Optionally, you can configure

IPv6 properties for your

SmartServer by selecting the

Advanced check box.

5. Click Submit.

6. Reboot the SmartServer. To do

this, right-click

SmartServer in

the navigation pane, point to

Setup, and then click Reboot.

In the

Setup – Reboot dialog,

click

Reboot. The reboot takes

approximately 5 to 10 minutes.

Step 4: Select a network management service

You can manage a LONWORKS network using LNS

network management

services or using the SmartServer as a standalone network manager. When

using LNS network management services, you can configure the SmartServer

to automatically synchronize with an LNS Server (the

LNS Auto

network

management service), or to synchronize manually under your control (the

LNS Manual

network management service).

• When using the LNS Auto and LNS Manual network management

services, the SmartServer synchronizes with an LNS Server, and uses the

LNS Server to perform all network management tasks. In these modes,

the SmartServer and the devices on the attached LONWORKS network can

communicate in a peer-to-peer manner. You must have an LNS Server

Turbo Edition (version 3.2 or newer) to use either of the LNS network

management services.

• When using the Standalone network management service, the

SmartServer is the network manager. The network functions as a master-

slave system, where the SmartServer is the master to the slave devices.

You can use standalone mode to operate a small, single-channel network

that does not require LNS services, LONWORKS connections, or synchroniza-

tion with other network management tools. Networks running in stand-

alone mode are limited to a maximum of 200 devices and no routers (for

TP/FT-10 networks, you need to attach a physical layer repeater to the

network to exceed the 64 device segment limit).

Note: Read Chapter 5 of the i.LON SmartServer User’s Guide before

changing the network management service.

Welcome to the i.LON SmartServer. Your SmartServer is a high-perform-

ance controller

, network manager, remote network interface, and Web

server that connects LONWORKS

, Modbus, and M-Bus devices to enterprise

applications and the Internet. The SmartServer also provides local device

monitoring and control via built-in scheduling, alarming, and datalogging

applications. Options are available for IP-852 routing and custom applica-

tion support. You can use the SmartServer to locally or remotely configure,

monitor, and control appliances, meters, load controls, lights, security

systems, pumps, valves, or virtually any electrical device—from across the

room or across the globe. This guide provides a quick overview of how

to install your SmartServer. See the i.LON SmartServer User’s Guide

for more information on how to install and use your SmartServer.
