SmartVFD Security Guide
INTRODUCTION AND
INTENDED AUDIENCE
This manual contains security-related information to
guide the contractor install, operate, and securely
maintain it.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The following is a system diagram of the SmartVFD in an
example installation.

Fig. 1.
Some key elements of the diagram are:
Lonworks network: Lonworks (LON) network provides
access to the Honeywell SmartVFD controller so it can
communicate and share information.
BACnet network: The BACnet MS/TP or BACnet IP
network provides access to the Honeywell SmartVFD
controller.
Modbus RTU or N2 network: Modbus RTU or N2 bus
networks provide access to the Honeywell SmartVFD
controller so it can communicate and share information.

HVFDCDMCA Commissioning Kit: Required for direct
access commissioning of the SmartVFD. Connects to PC
via USB and connects to SmartVFD via RJ45 using a
communication bus.
Drive Care Tool: PC software designed to allow user
access to all of the VFD parameters. It is used in
conjuction with the HVFDCDMCA Commissioning Kit
hardware to connect a PC to the SmartVFD.
Building Management System: The Building
Management System is not specifically defined, but can
be any management system that accepts one of the
communication types already described and used by the
SmartVFD.
The SmartVFD has multiple communication protocol
options. Typically only one communication protocol is
chosen to interface with the SmartVFD in any given
installation.
SYSTEM DESIGN AND
PLANNING
This section contains information on activities that need
to happen when the system is being planned by the
contractor.
Physical Security of Components
It is important to have a plan for physical security of
system components. It is recommended that the
contractor identify the security needs of the building
owner and provide guidance for implementation in
addition to the requirements of the building owner.
It is recommended that the organization responsible for
providing security for network assets be involved in the
planning. The Building owner/Customer's IT groups needs
to approve and connect the SmartVFD to the system so
that the IT system will work with the SMARTVFD.
Physical security controls, such as a locked cabinet or
equipment room that restricts physical access to the
SMARTVFD are necessary to prevent system tampering,
power interruption, and other security issues.
Ensure that SMARTVFD components requiring high
reliability are protected with secure power sources and
emergency power systems. Honeywell recommends
