Installing and Getting Started with the Device Manager Software

by pressing and holding the service switches for 10 seconds (see the LonPoint
Module Hardware & Installation Guide
for more details).

3. Attach and power the Device Manager to the network.

4. Note that the Device Manager’s status LED blinks 4 or 5 times per interval. 4

blinks means that no database is selected. 5 blinks means that the Device
Manager object is disabled or the DM MODE has been set to disable
discovery or commissioning (see Status LED in Chapter 4 for more
information about this LED). When the Device Manager has completed
network installation, the status LED will blink only once per interval. The
DI-10 and DO-10 modules reset as the Device Manager commissions them.

Single Subsystem Network with Ambiguous Devices (Example 2)

In this example a simple network will be created with three devices: a LonPoint
DI-10 and two LonPoint DO-10 modules. Since the two DO-10 modules have
identical Program IDs, location strings must be used to differentiate between the
two DO-10 devices. For the purposes of this example, it is assumed that the
reader has completed example 1 above.

1. Start the LonMaker for Windows Integration Tool and create a new network.

Do not attach to the network. Make sure that the DM plug-in is registered.

2. Set the domain for the network.

3. From the LonPoint Shapes stencil drag and attach the three devices (a

LonPoint DI-10 and two LonPoint DO-10s) to the default channel that the
LonMaker tool provides upon start up. As each shape is dropped the
LonMaker tool's device wizard can be used to set the Location String for the
device using the window shown in figure 5.11.
