Reprovisioning LON Devices
LON is not support for SmartServer Pi.
You can reprovision discvoered discovered LON devices that appear as green in the CMS Devices widget, but that you have not yet explicitly provisioned. This ensures that the devices are provisioned with the correct configuration. For example, if you provision a set of LON devices and then reset your SmartServer to factory defaults as described in Resetting the SmartServer to Factory Defaults, the SmartServer may automatically rediscover the LON devices and mark them as provisioned (green). A second example is a set of LON devices that you have provisioned using an LNS tool such as IzoT CT, and then subsequently create the device in the CMS. In both examples, the SmartServer may have the wrong configuration for the LON devices. To reprovision the LON devices, follow these steps:
- /wiki/spaces/TEMP/pages/44041710Open the SmartServer CMS.
- Add a capacity license for the devices you will provision if you do not already have sufficient capacity. See Manage Licenses for more information.
- If your SmartServer is running at more than 10 events per second (EPS), temporarily pause event monitoring to speed up the reprovisioning process.
- Open the Devices widget.
- Click the action button (
- If you paused monitoring in step 3, resume event monitoring.

title | Caution about deleting LON devices when using DMM |
---|
If you remove a discovered LON device with a SmartServer configured for LON DMM, if the device is still accessible to the SmartServer the SmartServer may change the configuration of the device and cause it to stop working. To prevent any modification of a device to be removed, physically remove the device from the LON channel. This will prevent the SmartServer from changing the device's configuration.
To remove a device, follow these steps:
- /wiki/spaces/TEMP/pages/44041710Open the SmartServer CMS.
- If your SmartServer is running at more than 10 events per second (EPS), temporarily pause event monitoring to speed up the provisioning process.
- Open the Devices widget.
- Click the Action button (
- Click OK in the Confirmation dialog box to remove the selected device.
- If you paused monitoring in step 2, resume event monitoring.
