(Optional) Set up the IP-852 Configuration Server

LON is supported for SmartConnect 4.3 and higher, with the exception of LON PL.

Perform the following steps to define the IP-852 channel devices and define a VNI interface in the LonWorks Interfaces (32-bit) control panel applet:

1. If you do not already have an IP-852 Configuration Server on your IP-852 channel, download and install the IP-852 Configuration Server.
   
   

2. Open the IP-852 Configuration Server.
   
   

   Open

   

    

3. Add your IP-852 routers and devices, including the SmartServer IP-852 router.
   
   

4. Right-click the channel, and then click Update Members. Verify that your SmartServer IoT device and other IP-852 routers and devices are green.
   
   

5. Launch the LonWorks Interfaces (32-bit) control panel applet on your Windows PC.
   
   

   Open

   

    

6. Define an IP-852 VNI interface that will be used by IzoT CT in the LonWorks Interfaces applet.
   
   

    

7. Confirm that all of the nodes on the IP-852 channel are functional as indicated by their green appearance in the IP-852 Configuration Server application.
   
   

   
   If so, you can start commissioning the router elements in IzoT CT.
   
   

8. Continue setting up the IP-852 feature following the steps in the section (Optional) Add a LON IP-852 Router.
