LONWORKS FTT-10 Transceiver User’s Guide 7-3
• Ensure that channel A of the router is connected to the backplane channel. For level
1 and 2 routers, a backplane transceiver must be installed in the router P2 channel A
transceiver expansion connector. For level 3 routers, JP1 must be in the "B" position;
• Mount an FTM-10 Modular Transceiver on a LonBuilder SMX Adapter;
• Mount the LonBuilder SMX Adapter on the router P3 channel B transceiver
expansion connector. For level 3 routers, JP2 must be in the "A" position;
• Create a router node specification for the LonBuilder Router;
• Use LonBuilder to install and load the router.
A heavily loaded FT-10 channel may generate more traffic than can be forwarded
through the LonBuilder Router. This may cause the LonBuilder Protocol Analyzer to
miss some of the packets on the FT-10 channel. To ensure that the protocol analyzer
receives all packets, it may be directly attached to the FT-10 channel. This allows the
protocol analyzer to monitor all channel traffic. When changing the LonBuilder
hardware configuration to attach the protocol analyzer to the FT-10 channel, ensure
that the following steps are completed:
• Select an FT-10 channel in the protocol analyzer Target HW definition;
• Mount an FTM-10 Modular Transceiver on a LonBuilder SMX Adapter;
• Mount the LonBuilder SMX Adapter on the control processor P3 protocol analyzer
transceiver expansion connector. For level 3 control processors, JP1 must be in the
"A" position;
• Use LonBuilder to install the protocol analyzer.
At this stage, you are ready to use the LonBuilder to install custom nodes attached to
the channel, and to perform other network management functions.
Refer to the custom node section of Chapter 7 of the LonBuilder User's Guide to best
understand the migration of the application from emulators to actual LPT-10 custom
nodes.
