I doubt you have successfully reloaded a zone manager with the process you have listed. The steps are somewhat out of order.

First, it is not necessary to reset the zone manager everytime you...

I found my answer, I need LNS Turbo to manage the Smart Server 1.0 with LNS/Lonmaker.

I currently have Lonmaker 3.13(non-turbo) with LNS server 3.08.05

Do I need to be using LNS 3.2 (Turbo) to manage Smart Server 1.0 or 2.0 for that matter?

Which version of LNS and Lonmaker is required to manage the Ilon Smart Server? The Echelon documentation doesn't seem to answer this clearly.

Thanks

I was led to believe the Smart Server 2 was not available in the U.S. yet.

I am testing a Smart Server 1 that I ordered/received a week ago from Engenuity. They do not have the Smart Server 2...

Sysint,
Just for your information the Honeywell XL100 is still manufactured and available in the XL100C model.

He's busy draining the water from his customers air compressor tanks.

Here we go again. Echelon provides wiring guidelines including terminating resistor usage for a reason.

I have seen many occasions where comms to one device on a test bench network was unreliable...

My ILON mobile won't commission because I ran out of LNS credits :D .

koolncali,
It sounds like you are very hands on with your Siemens system. We've done quite a few LNS/Lonworks jobs and I don't think you are going to be satisfied if you like tweaking the code. ...

So after confusing the original poster, what system have you provided? Is Tridium going to take over supporting the existing controllers on his job?

In my opinion sysint has suggested a clean...

You answered my question with three questions. What would be gained, a new ball and chain?

You didn't really answer my question. I will give you a comparison to work with.

If I put a Tridium front end next to a Siemens front end would you be able to duplicate the functionality and...

This is a face value question, not a slam. Does Tridium/Siemens integration provide all the functionality that a Siemens front end would provide?

Lonworks is not a brand and Tridium is not LNS based (meaning proprietary).

The more important choice to make is finding a good controls installer/integrator to do the work. This topic has been...

When you refer to "reset" in your original post do you mean you are pressing the "reset" button behind the i/o terminal strip on the controller?

If so you are dumping the software in the...
