® IzoT TM FT 6000 EVK Evaluation and Development Kit for LONWORKS® and IzoT Platforms The FT 6000 EVK is a complete hardware and software platform for creating or evaluating LONWORKS and IzoT devices based on the Series 6000 Smart Transceivers and Neuron® Processors. FT 6000 EVK Key Features • Supports the development of LONWORKS, LONWORKS /IP or BACnet/ IP devices on a common platform • Includes two FT 6000 EVB hardware platforms for initial application development and testing • Includes sample I/O hardware with a 4x20 character LCD display for easy I/O prototyping and testing. • Includes the IzoT NodeBuilder software for application development and IzoT Commissioning Tool EVK Edition for easy installation and testing of control networks • Includes one IzoT Router with FT and Ethernet interfaces and a set of five FT 6050 Smart Transceiver chips • Open source Wireshark network protocol analyzer can be used to capture, analyze, characterize, and display network packets so you can pinpoint network or device faults and identify potential solutions. You can use the FT 6000 EVK to create devices such as VAV controllers, thermostats, card-access readers, lighting ballasts, motor controls and many other devices. These devices can be used in a variety of systems including building and lighting controls, factory automation, energy management, and transportation systems. Whether you’re building large or small control network devices, IP enabled LONWORKS or BACnet devices, the FT 6000 EVK makes your project development faster, easier, and more affordable. Development Kit for the IzoT Control Platform Creating control devices and networking them has a unique set of challenges that are quite different from traditional data or computer networking and also quite different from the consumer Internet of Things (IoT). Most high value assets such as electro-mechanical systems within buildings, machines on factory floors, public transportation, infrastructure for the delivery of public utilities and many others, require controlling and monitoring by special devices that are attached at key control and monitoring points and these devices together from the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The control and communication of these devices requires: • autonomous control — without the need for human involvement • industrial strength reliability • co-existence with legacy control protocols and evolution to new IP based addressing • hardened security The FT 6000 EVK is the easiest way for developers to create control devices and connect them with control networks. The FT 6000 EVK facilitates: • creation of autonomous communities of devices • the ability discover each other • a rich set of standard and interoperable device profiles • creation of meaningful and functional bindings between devices • secure group messaging between devices • IP addressing down to the device level • an easy to use programming environment IzoT NodeBuilder Software The IzoT NodeBuilder software lets you create, debug, test, and maintain applications for LONWORKS or IzoT devices based on an Echelon Series 6000 Neuron Processor or Smart Transceiver.

The Neuron C language supports up to 254 address table entries, 254 static network variables and 127 network variable aliases per device for devices based on a Series 6000 chip with Neuron Firmware version 21 or newer, subject to available memory. The IzoT NodeBuilder software supports application-specific interrupt handlers and a hardware semaphore that can be used for interrupt task synchronization. Interrupt sources include signals on any of the 12 I/O pins (rising edge, falling edge, either edge, positive or negative level), the highperformance on-chip timer and counter units, and a dedicated, configurable, high-performance periodic system timer. The IzoT NodeBuilder software includes the following tools: IzoT NodeBuilder Resource Editor. View standard types and functional profiles, and create user-defined types and profiles if the standard resource files don’t include the resources you need. IzoT NodeBuilder Code Wizard. Use a drag-and-drop interface to create your device’s interface, and then automatically generate Neuron C source code that implements the device interface and creates the framework for your device application. The code wizard saves days of development for every new device. IzoT NodeBuilder Editor. Edit the Neuron C source code generated by the code wizard to create your device’s application.   IzoT NodeBuilder S/W   IzoT Commissioning Tool/EVK Edition S/W   WireShark IP Protocol Anayzer S/W IzoT NodeBuilder Debugger. Debug your application with a source-level view of your application code as it executes. IzoT NodeBuilder Project Manager. Build and download your application image to your development platform or to your own device hardware. ISI Developer’s Kit. Develop ISI devices that use the Interoperable Self-Installation (ISI) protocol to install and organize themselves into networks automatically or at the push of a button, all without the use of a separate installation tool. IzoT Commission Tool EVK Edition An integral part of the IzoT NodeBuilder software, the IzoT Commissioning tool is a software package for designing, installing, and maintaining LONWORKS and IzoT control networks. This single tool manages all phases of a network’s life cycle, from the initial design and commissioning to the ongoing operation. Based on Echelon’s IzoT Network Services Server, the IzoT Commissioning tool combines a powerful client-server architecture with an easy- to-use Microsoft Visio user interface. It is compatible with a number of IzoT and LNS® plug-ins, including the IzoT NodeBuilder Project Manager. FT 6000 Evaluation Board (EVB) Two FT 6000 EVB Evaluation Boards are included with the FT 6000 EVK. The FT 6000 EVB is a complete Series 6000 LONWORKS and IzoT device that you can use to evaluate and create LONWORKS and IzoT devices. The FT 6000 EVB includes an FT 6000 Smart Transceiver with an external 10MHz crystal (you can adjust the internal system clock speed from 5MHz to 80MHz), an FT-X3 communication transformer, 512KB external serial flash memory device, and a 3.3V power source. FT 6000 EVB Evaluation Board Edgelog input The FT 6000 EVB’s compact design includes the following I/O devices, which you can use to develop prototype and production devices, and to test the FT 6000 EVB example applications: Frequency output • 4-line x 20-character LCD display • 4-way joystick with center push button • Two push-button inputs • Two LED outputs • Light-level sensor • Temperature sensor An FT 6000 EVB I/O library, included with the IzoT NodeBuilder software, provides easy-to-use high-level functions for accessing the display, light-level sensor, and temperature sensor. The FT 6000 EVB Evaluation Board also includes an EIA-232/ TIA-232/RS-232 interface and a USB interface that you can use to connect the board to your development computer and perform application-level debugging (only one of the two serial interfaces can be used at a time). Each FT 6000 EVB also features a connector for optional in-circuit programming of the external non-volatile memory of the FT 6000 Smart Transceiver on the board. This allows fast application downloads to the external non-volatile memory. IzoT Router with FT and Ethernet Interfaces One IzoT router is included with the FT 6000 EVK. The IzoT router includes the IzoT ServerStack and the FT terminators. The IzoT router supports FT and Ethernet interfaces and can be used to connect the FT 6000 EVBs to a host that is running the IzoT NodeBuilder software and the IzoT Commissioning Tool.
