  • Page 6: Technical Overview

    3.1.3 Assumptions These operating instructions assume, that the GE LonWorks option is used in conjunction with a GE AF-600 FPfan & pump drive. It is also assumed that the installed controller supports the interfaces described in this document and that all the requirements stipulated in the controller, as well as the frequency converter, are strictly observed along with all limitations therein.

  • Page 7: Background Knowledge

    3.1.5 Background Knowledge The GE LonWorks Option Card is designed to communicate with any system complying with the FTT and 78Kbps LonWorks standard. Familiarity with this technology is assumed. Issues regarding hardware or software produced by other manufacturers, including commissioning tools, are beyond the scope of this manual and are not the responsibility of GE.

  • Page 8: How To Install

    AF-600 FP LonWorks 4 How to Install 4.1 How to install 4.1.1 The LonWorks Option The LonWorks option is equipped with two termination switches, S300 and S301, enabling double termination when using bus topology. The push-button switch O400, activates the Service-Pin function.
  • Page 9 AF-600 FP LonWorks 4.1.2 Cabling The Free Topology Transceiver (FTT) system is designed to support free topology wiring and accommodates bus, star, loop or any combination of these topologies. The LonWorks option is equipped with the FT-X1 transceiver for improved EMC performmance. Flexible wiring capability simplifies system installation and makes it easy to add nodes for system expansion.

  • Page 10: Network Termination

    AF-600 FP LonWorks 4.1.3 Network Termination Dependent on the type of topology, at least one of the connected nodes must be terminated (52.5Ω). The option has two built-in termination circuits which are activated by the terminator switches S300 and S301.

  • Page 11: Emc Precautions

    The following EMC precautions are recommended in order to achieve interference-free operation of the LonWorks network. Additional EMC information is available in the AF-600 FP Design Guide. Relevant national and local regulations, for example regarding protective earth connection, must be observed.
