Product Properties
• Connect LonWorks networks to TCP/IP Ethernet networks for
commercial, industrial, residential and utility applications
• LANLON 100% transparent data flow transfer
• Capable of process at least 160 packets per seconds
• 10MBaseT Ethernet interface
• Static or acquired IP address
• Twisted pair (TP/FT-10, TP/XF-1250 and TP/XF-78) LonWorks
channel support
• Virtual SLTA-10 or SLTA LonWorks network interface
• LNS (NSI) or LonManager API (MIP) support
• Up to 256 adapters could be connect to one PC
• Local or remote configuration, monitor and control support
Remotely Access LonWorks Systems
Using Existing Software
ETHLON is the ideal way to gain central
remote access to several control systems while still
using the same software your LonWorks system
was designed for. By extending LonWorks access
over Internet Protocol (IP), ETHLON acts as a
replacement for a LonTalk Serial Adapter such as
an SLTA-10 or SLTA, establishing remote access
without any major software changes.

What is VSLA and Why?
• VSLA -- Virtual Serial LonTalk Adapter
• ETHLON is a VSLA device, redirects Ethernet as a virtual
serial port, and recognized as a Serial LonTalk Adapter by
LonWorks system
• Advantages:
– Using standard drivers of SLTA or SLTA-10 and SLTALink from
Echelon which are accepted by all LonWorks users
– Using universal virtual serial port driver which are widely accepted
by IT world
– Using all existing LonWorks software without any modify needed
– Could connect up to 16 (windows95/98) or 256 (windows2000/NT)
devices to ONE PC running LNS/LonManager Server
HOW TO INSTALL?
• Physical Installation
– ETHLON can be installed in any convenient location where the
LonWorks network and Ethernet network physically meet,
allowing total flexibility in determining or changing the location of
the workstation running LNS/LonManager Server.
– Wall or desktop mount
