LINX-15X Automation Server The L-INX LINX-153 and LINX-154 automation servers are powerful automation stations programmable with L-STUDIO. L-INX automation servers can host user-specific graphic pages and can integrate physical I/Os via L-IOB I/O modules via LIOB-Connect, LIOB-FT, or LIOB-IP. The LINX-154 can only be extended via LIOB-IP. Local operation and management are ensured by the integrated jog dial and backlit display (128x64 pixels). Device and data point information are displayed on the screen using symbols and in text format. The powerful Automation Servers provide connectivity functions to simultaneously integrate CEA-709 (LonMark systems), BACnet, KNX, Modbus, and M-Bus subsystems. LonMark systems can be integrated via IP-852 (Ethernet/IP) or TP/FT-10. BACnet integration is supported via BACnet/IP (Ethernet/IP) or BACnet MS/TP (RS-485). LINX-153 automation servers feature an integrated Remote Network Interface (RNI) for accessing the device's TP/FT-10 channel via Ethernet/IP. LINX-153 automation servers come with two integrated routers, an IP-852 router and a BACnet/IP to MS/TP router which includes BBMD and Slave-Proxy functionality, providing the full set of functions of the corresponding L-IP devices. The gateway functionality allows data communication between all available communication technologies on the device. Data points from different technologies are mapped through the device's local connections. Mapping data points of different technologies on distributed devices is supported by global connections. L-INX automation servers also support Smart Auto-Connect™, automatic connection generation that significantly reduces engineering efforts and costs. All technological data points are automatically created as OPC XML-DA and OPC UA data points. Each L-INX Automation Server is equipped with two Ethernet ports. It can be configured to use the internal switch to interconnect the two ports or each port is configured to work in a separate IP network. When the Ethernet ports are configured for two separate IP networks, one port can be connected, for example, to a WAN (Wide Area Network) with network security enabled (HTTPS), while the second port can be configured to be connected to an unsecured network (LAN) where standard building automation protocols such as BACnet/IP, LON/IP or Modbus TCP are present. The integrated VPN function allows for simple VPN configuration and secure access to remote sites. The LTE-800 interface enables wireless access to remote sites via a mobile operator. Thanks to the internal switch, a daisy-chain topology of up to 20 devices can be created, thus reducing network installation costs. The IP switch also allows for the creation of a redundant Ethernet installation (ring topology), which increases reliability. Redundant Ethernet topology is enabled by the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), supported by most managed switches. L-INX devices offer full AST™ functionality (alarming, scheduling, and trending) and can be seamlessly integrated into the L-WEB system. ## IoT Integration The IoT (Node.js) function allows connecting the system to almost any cloud service, whether to upload historical data to analytics services, send alarm messages to alarm processing services, or manage parts of the control system via a cloud service (e.g., scheduling based on web calendars or booking systems). It is also possible to process Internet information, such as weather data, for forecast-based control. Finally, the JavaScript kernel also allows implementing serial protocols for non-standard equipment in primary plant control. ## Technical Features - Programmable with L-STUDIO IEC 61131-3 and IEC 61499 - Programmable with L-LOGICAD - Room controller for up to 8 room segments - Physical inputs and outputs with L-IOB I/O modules (LIOB-11x, LIOB-15x and LIOB-45x/55x for LINX-153) (LIOB-45x/55x for LINX-154) - Graphic display 128x64 with backlight - Local and remote access to device status information and data points - Manual operation via jog dial or VNC client - Alarming, Scheduling, and Trending (AST™) - Node.js support for easy IoT integration (e.g., Google Calendar, Alexa & friends, multimedia equipment, etc.) - Event-driven email notification - Mathematical objects to perform mathematical operations on data points - Storage of custom graphic pages - Display of custom graphic pages via LWEB-900 (Building Management), LWEB-803 (Monitoring and Control) or LWEB-802 (Web Browser) - Embedded OPC XML-DA and OPC UA server - Dual switched or separate Ethernet port - Access to network statistics - Compliant with ANSI/ASHRAE-135-2012 and ISO 16484-5:2012 standards - Supports BACnet MS/TP and BACnet/IP - BACnet client function (write property, read property, COV subscription) - BACnet client configuration with configuration tool (EDE scan and import) - B-BC (BACnet Building Controller) functionality, BTL certified - Compliant with CEA-709, CEA-852 and ISO/IEC 14908 standards (LonMark system) - Supports TP/FT-10 (LINX-153 only) - Support for dynamically or statically created NVs - Support for user-defined NVs (UNVT) and configuration properties (SCPT, UCPT) - Remote Network Interface (RNI) with 2 MNI devices (LINX-153 only) - Integrated router from BACnet/IP to BACnet MS/TP including BBMD and Slave-Proxy functionality - Integrated router from IP-852 to TP/FT-10 (LINX-153 only) - KNXnet/IP, connection to KNX TP1 via LKNX-300 interface (LINX-153 only) - M-Bus Master according to EN 13757-3, connection via optional M-Bus converter (LINX-153 only) (L-MBUS20 or L-MBUS80) - Gateway functions, including Smart Auto-Connect™ function. - Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU/ASCII (Master or Slave) - Integrated web server for device configuration and data point monitoring - Configurable via TP/FT-10 (LINX-153 only) or Ethernet/IP - Connection to EnOcean wireless devices via L-ENO interface (LINX-153 only) - Supports SMI (Standard Motor Interface) via LSMI-800 or LSMI-804 (LINX-153 only) - Supports MP-Bus via LMPBUS-804 interface (LINX-153 only) - Supports WLAN via LWLAN-800 interface - Supports LTE via LTE-800 interface - Stores user-defined project documentation VIDEO_IDVIDEO_IDVIDEO_ID --- Source: https://shop.marcomweb.it/en/modbus/linx-15x-automation-server MARCOM S.r.l. — a trusted supplier for industrial automation and building automation.
