28 Installing and Activating the LonMaker Tool
4. Choose a L ON W ORKS folder for the plug-in. You must use the same L ON W ORKS folder in which
you installed the LonMaker tool. The default is C:\LonWorks. Click Next. The Select Echelon
Application Image Version window appears.
5. If this is a new installation, use LonPoint firmware version 3 instead of version 2. This window
allows you to install a copy of version 2 firmware if you need the capability to install devices with
this older firmware. Do not select the option to install application image version 2 files unless you
intend to install version 2 devices in new networks instead of upgrading to version 3. See the
LonPoint Application and Plug-in help file for more information. Click Next. The select Program
Folder window appears.
6. Select an existing L ON W ORKS program folder or type in the name of a new one. The default
program folder name is Echelon LonPoint Software. Click Next.
7. The LonPoint applications, plug-in, and utilities install on your computer. View the ReadMe file
when prompted to do so, and then click Finish.
Installing and Configuring Network Drivers
The LonMaker tool will automatically install the drivers for the i .LON 10 Ethernet Adapter, i .LON
100 Internet Server, and i .Lon 600 LonWorks/IP Server; U10/U20 USB LNS network interfaces; and
PCC-10 and PCLTA 10, 20, and 21 LNS network interfaces.
If you are using an i .LON 10 or i .LON 100 as a network interface, configure the interface as described
in the user manuals for those devices.
If you are using a PCC-10, PCLTA-10, or PCLTA-20 L ON W ORKS network interface, configure the
network driver you installed per the instructions in Appendix B.
Installing Adobe Acrobat Reader
If you select the Adobe Acrobat Reader check box in the Select Components dialog, the Adobe
Acrobat Reader setup program begins automatically. Follow the instructions in the setup program to
complete your Adobe Acrobat Reader installation.
Activating the LonMaker Tool
You must activate your copy of the LonMaker tool in order to access all of its features. Until it is
activated, the LonMaker tool will run in demo mode for a maximum of 30 days. This means that
during the 30-day demo period, you will not be able to open production networks and your demo
networks will be limited to six devices. In addition, you will not be able to convert your demo
networks into production networks after you activate the LonMaker tool. This means that demo
networks are permanently limited to six devices.
Prior to activation, the LonMaker Product Activation dialog will appear each time you start the
LonMaker Design Manager or open a LonMaker drawing. This dialog reminds you that your
LonMaker tool has not yet been activated, and it will state the number of days that your LonMaker tool
will continue to function.
