Lab 25 — Lon Integration Lab:
Adding an: nfiguri n_network:
1, Expand the station Config container in the Nav SideBar and locate the Drivers container. Expand
the view of the Drivers container; note the existing Niagara Network.
2. Open the lonworks palette and locate the LonNetwork object.
3. Drag a LonNetwork out of the lonworks palette and drop it onto the Drivers component. Leave
the name as is. (Note: The LonNetwork could also be added to your station by opening the Driver
Manager window, then selecting the New button at the bottom of the window)
4. Expand the LonNetwork in the Nav Tree and verify that 2 Local Lon Device appears. This is the
LonCard the station will use to connect to the LON network.
Lon Device and Point discovery:
1. Unfold the Drivers component in the station, then the LonNetwork.
2. Double-click the LonNetwork to open the Lon Device Manager.
3. Click the Discover button at the bottom of the window,
4, In the Discovered window (top of page) you should see 2 Honeywei/controller displayed. Select
the controller, drag it to the Database window and drop it. Click the OK button to accept the
defaults and add the controller to the station.
5. Rename the device VAVO1. Highlight and commission the new VAVO1. The Commissioning dialog
appears displaying the Neuron ID. Click Apply. If successful, the Lor Commission Success banner
should temporarily display in the lower right comer.
6. Expand the VAVO4 device in the Nav Tree, double-click the Points container to open the Lon
Point Manager.
7. Discover all available points, and then Add points for the available SNVTs (Standard Network
Variable Types) in accordance with the following chart.

Configure the facets for the EnumWritable (Occupancy) object as follows:
Open the Property sheet view for the Occupancy object. Click on the double arrow to set the
facets. In the Value column, click on the *...” button, then another double arrow button to see
the Enum dizlog.
a. Click the "Use Frozen Enum in Range” checkbox.
b. From the drop-down menu, select “lonworks: LonOccupancyEnum.”

1. Inthe Points container Wire sheet view, edd an Enum schedule object to write occupancy back
to the Lon device via nviTODEvent_currentState object. (Link the Out slot of the Enum
schedule object to the In46 slot of the Occupancy object.) Name the schedule - VAVSchedule
Be sure the facets are the same as the Occupancy ob)
2. Set up the schedule for occupancy Monday — Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. The schedule
output should be “Occupied” during the occupied hours and Unoccupied the remainder of the
time.
3. Reference the holiday calendar created in a previous lab on your Enumerated schedule’s Special

From the View menu, click on Lon Link Manager.
Using the Shift key, select the range of points for the Excell10 device and click the Set Service
Type button. Select standard Bind.
8. Click the Selective Bind button. A Lon Bind Success banner will appear in the lower right corner

Add Histories:
10. Add an Interval History to the Space Temperature and the Effective Set Point. Add a
Boolean COV history to the Fan,Cool and Heat. Enable the histories,
NOTE: If you cannot add a Boolean History to the Fan or the Heat then you probably aia not
change the point type from NUMERIC to BOOLEAN when you imparted the poi
