XM500

TCP/IP Modem

GENERAL

The XM500 allows for communication between standard

EXCEL 5000 controllers and the Excel Building Supervisor

Central, or any controller on the Light Commercial Building

System (LCBS) and LONSTATION™, via standard Ethernet-

TCP/IP based LAN/WAN networks.

The XM500 is easy to install and to configure. Typically, with

all necessary network information being available, it can be

made operational within minutes.

The XM500 converts the serial data received from the

controller or workstation central into TCP/IP packets and vice

versa.

On its serial port, the XM500 behaves like a standard Hayes

compatible modem: It is addressed with Hayes commands,

and instead of a telephone number, IP addresses are used.

The XM500 is designed to replace the analog modem used in

our Excel 5000 and LCBS systems and provide the same

functionality using TCP/IP communications.

The XM500 may be easily configured with the IP Connect

software provided or manually via Windows Terminal

Program. The LAN/WAN network server requires no software

download for the XM500.

FEATURES

• Communication between XBS or LONSTATION™

centrals and EXCEL 5000 controllers via standard

Ethernet-TCP/IP LAN/WAN.

• TCP/IP provides more reliable and faster

communications than analog modem.

• Compatible with all HVAC systems connecting through

an SLTA-10.

• Compatible to EXCEL 5000 controllers with integrated

modem communication (O.S. version 2.01.00 or later).

• Compatible to EXCEL 5000 modem devices XM100A,

XDM506.

• Compatible to all XBS or LONSTATION™ centrals with

dial-up functionality via COM-port.

• Completely self-contained device.

• Quick and easy installation and set-up.

LIMITATIONS

The Echelon MIPS protocol requires all outbound commands/

queries be answered within 1000 milliseconds (1 sec). If any

part of the Wide Area Network is comprised of a satellite link,

it is likely to have a “propagation delay” of more than one

second, thus eliminating the use of a WAN modem. Before

installation, the user should perform tests to obtain the

response time of the network. (See “Configuration” on

page 3.)

CONFIGURATION

Ethernet LAN/WAN Information Needed

It is mandatory to get the following information from the

person that is responsible for supervising and maintaining the

LAN/WAN Ethernet system in the locations where the XM500

shall be operated:

Test Network Response Time

The network administrator should run a “trace route” between

the LAN and remote location to ensure the cumulative

response time is not near or over 1000 milliseconds.

Otherwise, the user can encounter connectivity issues.

Locations must have LAN/WAN connection

A (10bT) TCP/IP LAN/WAN connection must be available in

every location, where an EXCEL controller or a workstation

shall be operated via the XM500.

Every TCP/IP Modem needs an official IP address

This IP address must be official and permanent. It will serve

as the telephone number for the workstation or EXCEL

controller that is connected to it.

EXAMPLE: 160.221.71.130

NOTES:

1. If communication is only done internally in the

LAN, unofficial IP addresses will be sufficient.

2. If only dynamic IP addresses are available: Use a

DHCP server and have it allocate the identical IP

address every time it does a dynamic IP address

allocation.

3. For an intermediate test, the IP address of a PC

can be borrowed, but the PC must be switched off

during this test.

4. If an XM500 is connected to a LAN network which

itself is connected to WAN by using one official IP

address only via Proxy server or dynamic NAT,

this controller cannot be addressed from the

WAN.

5. Every controller that has to be accessed by the

TCP/IP modem needs its own IP address.

6. If the connection between two LANs itself is done

via dial-up, fixed IP addresses in the TCP/IP

Modem will not work. Contact your local system

administrator for help in this case.

Every TCP/IP Modem needs a network mask

TECHNICAL INSTALLATION AND SET-UP (OPTIONAL)

For ease of use, it is recommended to use the IP-Connect

Software provided to configure the XM500 controller.

However, if desired the XM500 may be configured manually.

The following sections provide the technical details to

configure the XM500 using Windows Terminal program.

IMPORTANT

For LONSTATION™ and LONSPEC™, refer to the

LONSTATION™ and LONSPEC™ Configuration

section on page 5.

Data Line Monitor

For every modem start-up, using a data line monitor is highly

recommended in order to allow checking the communication

and the RS-232 line status during commissioning.

RS-232 Breakout Box

As the XM500 does not provide LED indication of the line

status of TxD, RxD and other control, using a standard

RS-232 breakout box can be helpful.

Setting Up the XM500

1. Start a terminal program and set it up for 9.600 bps.

2. Enter <ATEV1><ENTER> and verify that the XM500

returns <OK>.

3. Enter the commands listed below in order to initialize

the XM500 for the TCP/IP communication between XBS

or LONSTATION™ and EXCEL 5000/15 controllers:

a. lockmem off : (unlocks nonvolatile memory).

b. stty xxxxx : (sets RS-232 Baud Rate to xxxxx bps;

default is 9600 bps; supported baud rates:

2.400/4.800/9.600/19.200/38.400)

IMPORTANT

If baud rates 19.200 and 38.400 bps are to be used

the autobauding MUST be switched <on> after the

TCP/IP initialization has been completed.

c. ifconfig 160.221.71.130 255.255.252.0

This example is for an IP address 160.221.71.130

with appropriate network mask 255.255.252.0.

(note the blank space between IP address and

network mask).

d. route add net default 160.221.68.1 1

(Example of a gateway definition)

Please check with the local network administrator if

a gateway definition is necessary. The parameters

are the default gateway address (160.221.68.1) and

the number of hops to the gateway(1). They must be

separated by a space

e. lockmem on : (locks nonvolatile memory).

f. autobaud on : (enables the XM500 to adapt its serial

baud rate to that of the controller or the workstation

central. This is only needed if baud rates 19.200 and

38.400 bps are to be used for XL50.)

IMPORTANT

• Above user commands can only be recognized by

the XM500 when the autobaud is <off>.

• This means that the autobaud <on> command

MUST be used AFTER the user commands have

been entered.

• If user commands should be changed, then FIRST

autobaud must be set to <off>.

4. Enter the following AT commands in order to initialize

the XM500 for the required serial behavior.

Testing the TCP/IP communication

This test is to verify that both XM500s are fully initialized and

are connected to the LAN/WAN:

1. Connect a PC to each of the two XM500s that shall

communicate, and start a terminal program on both

PCs. PC terminal baud rate MUST be set to that which

the attached XM500 was programmed.

2. <ping> the IP address of the XM500 to which the other

PC is connected.

3. If the ping-test was successful, you can set-up and test

a transparent communication by proceeding as follows:

a. Action at Sending PC:<ATD 160.221.71.131>

b. Action at Target PC:

(1) Wait for <ring>
