Network Interfaces
Add a PC to your LonWorks control network—quickly and affordably!
Our network interfaces are the highest-performance, highest-quality, lowest-cost network interfaces available. Compatible with desktop and notebook PCs, and featuring a wide range of channel and interface options, there's a solution for every need.
Compatibility
- All network interfaces are compatible with LNS and OpenLDV applications on Windows Vista, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003.
- The PCLTA-20, PCLTA-21, PCC-10, and SLTA-10 also work with LNS and OpenLDV applications on Windows 98 and Windows NT.
- All network interfaces except the SLTA-10 and i.LON 10 work with the LonScanner Protocol Analyzer.
Drivers
- Drivers for the i.LON 10, i.LON SmartServer 2.0, i.LON SmartServer, i.LON 100, U10, and U20 interfaces are integrated into OpenLDV—no other driver is needed.
- For all other interfaces, you'll need a separate driver in addition to OpenLDV.
Download OpenLDV and other drivers from the Downloads section. For additional information about the network interfaces or other Echelon Development tools, just contact your Echelon sales representative or request it online.

Serial Gateway Modules
If you need to connect non LonWorks enabled equipment (with a EIA-232 serial interface) to a LonWorks network, you can quickly and easily support any serial protocol by using the PSG-20 and PSG/3 Programmable Serial Gateways. You can support any serial protocol as the PSG-20 and PSG/3 are programmed in the C language using highly productive built-in serial libraries. Typically serial gateway development can be completed in a few days. These serial gateway modules are a popular networking option for equipment old or new, or one-off equipment that does not presently embed a LonWorks interface.
