SX5L COMMUNICATION TERMINAL USER’S MANUAL 4-1
4: SOFTWARE SPECIFICATIONS
Introduction
This chapter describes the software specifications of the SX5L communication terminals. Designing a LONWORKS net-
work requires complete understanding of the functional blocks available on each SX5L communication terminal. Before
starting system configuration, read this chapter to understand available functional blocks.
General
The SX5L communication terminals contain an application program installed before shipment from factory. The functions
of application programs are configured in units of functional blocks. More than one functional block is installed in one
SX5L communication terminal. Available functional blocks are listed in the table below.
To set up a LONWORKS network, every device on the network, including the SX5L modules, must be commissioned indi-
vidually to assign an address using a network management tool. A Neuron ID is needed to identify each LONWORKS mod-
ule. While commissioning the SX5L using a network management tool, either enter the 12-digit alphanumeric Neuron ID
printed on the label on the SX5L manually, or press the SERVICE REQUEST button on the SX5L module to send the ser-
vice pin message.
