Connecting LYNK II to the NOARK Network

NOTICE

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE

  • Turn OFF all devices before connecting cables.

  • Do not plug an AEbus RJ45 network cable or terminator into the 10/100 Ethernet port of the LYNK II.

  • Do not connect a cable from the AEbus, LYNK, or Ethernet ports of the LYNK II to a WAN or MODEM port of a network router.

  • Mixing the LYNK Network with other networks may result in equipment malfunction and damage.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in equipment damage.

  • At least one battery must be connected to the LYNK Port or AEbus Port on LYNK II.

  • A network of batteries will communicate as one battery.

  • No more than one network of batteries may be connected to LYNK II.

  • Network termination is required for the system’s proper functioning - note some batteries and devices may auto-terminate.

  • LYNK II requires power. There are three possible sources: a 13-90 VDC power supply, AEbus Port or LYNK Port-enabled Discover Lithium battery, or a USB device.

  • Discover Lithium batteries must be set to ON to supply power and communicate data with LYNK II.

AES RACKMOUNT

Both LYNK II and HELIOS ESS batteries are internally terminated. No extra termination is required.

NOTICE

TERMINATION REQUIREMENT

HELIOS ESS Batteries prior to serial number DLPHD48B251830001 are supplied with a termination resistor. When setting up closed-loop communication with these HELIOS ESS Batteries, plug the termination resistor into the COM3/COM4 port on the last battery in the LYNK network.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in equipment damage.
