2. Format the SmartServer flash disk using the bootrom console. To do this, follow these steps:
a. Enter the reboot command in the SmartServer console application.
b. When the console reads “Press the ‘!’ key to stop auto-boot”, press ‘!’. The SmartServer
will enter the bootrom state, halting all applications.
c. Enter the format command in the bootrom application.
See Appendix B, Using the SmartServer Console Application, for more information on using the
bootrom and console applications.
3. After the SmartServer has rebooted, enter the FTP URL of your SmartServer (ftp://192.168.1.222,
for example) in the browser of an FTP client such as Core FPT, WS FTP Pro, and Cute FTP.
4. Enter the FTP/Telnet user name and password for accessing your SmartServer via FTP.
5. Copy all the folders in the SmartServer backup directory to the root directory of the SmartServer
flash disk.
6. Enter the reboot command in the SmartServer console application.
Note: You can follow these steps to create a new SmartServer that has the same configuration as the
backup of an existing SmartServer.
Manually Copying Device Templates to a SmartServer
After you create a device template on a SmartServer, you can manually copy it to one or more other
SmartServers. You can then create new devices from the template or use the template to change the
interface of existing devices.
To manually copy a device template from one SmartServer to another, follow these steps:
1. Use FTP to access the /config/template directory on the source SmartServer flash disk.
2. Click the folder (and any subfolders) containing the template to be copied. By default, the
/config/template directory contains folders for L ON W ORKS and Modbus templates.
3. Copy the template (.XML file) to the local drive of your computer, a USB drive, a floppy disk,
another removable media, or a shared network drive with read/write permissions (you cannot copy
a file from one SmartServer and directly paste it into another). If you copy it to your local drive,
you can save it to C:/LonWorks/iLon100/images/iLon100 4.00/config/template/<driver>
directory. This is useful for copying a set of templates to a SmartServer.
4. Use FTP to access the /config/template/<driver> directory on the flash disk of the target
SmartServers.
5. Copy the template from the location where it was saved in step 3 to the
/config/template/<driver>directory on the target SmartServer flash disk.
6. Create new devices from the template as described in Creating Devices from Templates in Chapter
4.
Manually Deploying a Pre-Configured SmartServer in a Single
Network
You can pre-configure the SmartServer in your office and then manually deploy the pre-configured
SmartServer in a single network, using the same OpenLNS network database if you are running the
SmartServer in LNS mode. To deploy a pre-configured SmartServer in a single network, follow these
steps:
1. If you are using OpenLNS network management service (LNS Auto or LNS Manual) on the
SmartServer, commission the SmartServer and synchronize it to an OpenLNS network database
