ELC Controllers / Modules
ELC Left Side Specialty 
Modules
Left side specialty modules connect 
to a high-speed bus located on the 
left of the PV controller. A single PV 
processor can support up to 8 left side 
specialty modules and in any combi-
nation desired. This is in addition to 
the right side analog, specialty and 
digital I/O modules.
■ ELC-COENETM – Ethernet commu-
nication module. Enables the PV 
controller to connect to ModbusTCP 
networks auto detecting 10/100MB 
connections. The Ethernet module 
enables the uploading and down-
loading of programs in addition to 
program monitoring. Use ELCSoft to 
search for all the Ethernet modules 
attached to the network and manage 
them remotely. Share data in a peer-
to-peer network to reduce long I/O 
wiring. Send emails for alerts and 
notifications. For example, advise 
personnel of alarm condition or send 
daily production yield summaries. 
Keep accurate time with the NTP 
(Network Time Protocol) feature 
which synchronizes your controller 
with an NTP server. The Ethernet 
module will automatically detect 
and use the type of patch or cross-
over cable attached. IP addresses 
may be filtered to manage module 
traffic in order to maximize commu-
nication performance.
■ ELC-CODNETM – DeviceNet master 
module maps up to 380 bytes of 
data directly into the PV controller 
for quick and easy access. Use 
Polled, Bit-Strobe and Change of 
State/Cyclic DeviceNet commands, 
or send explicit messages. Configu-
ration of DeviceNet components in 
ELCSoft is easy with the drag-and-
drop interface. Use the pre-popu-
lated EDS files within ELCSoft 
and add others to simplify the 
configuration.
