Z-Wave Operating FrequencyAustralia/New Zealand: 921.42/921.40/919.80MHzUS/Canada: 908.42/908.40/916MHzEuropean: 868.42/868.40/869.85MHz
Z-Wave Developer’s Kit: 7.13.1
This product can be operated in any Z-WaveTM network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers. All mains operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network. In an ELAN SC Series System Controller, the host application controls the device reset feature. If this controller is the primary controller for your network, resetting it will result in the nodes in your network being orphaned and it will be necessary after the reset to exclude and re-include all of the nodes in the network. If this controller is being used as a secondary controller in the network, use this procedure to reset this controller only in the event that the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.
QUICK INSTALL GUIDEEL-SC-100 Overview
Mounting
The EL-SC-100 is designed to mount on a shelf, hang in a cabinet or rack, or mount in a structured wiring enclosure with optional mounting bracket.
Wall Mounting: The EL-SC-100 chassis has been designed to allow convenient wall mounting in any orientation. Arrows on the rear panel may be used to mark the location for the screws. Mark the screw locations, mount the screws leaving approx. 3/16″ (5mm) of screw exposed and slide the chassis over the screws.
Structured Wiring Cabinet Mounting: Using the optional Structured Wiring Cabinet Mount, the EL-SC-100 can be mounted in a structured wiring cabinet.
- Attach mounting bracket to wiring cabinet with snap rivets and washers
- Snap the controller to the hooks on the mounting bracket
Shelf Mounting: The EL-SC-100 has rubber feet to protect finished surfaces. Set the controller in a location that will allow you to properly manage connected wiring so that there is no tension on the connections. 8
Serial Connection
Connect an RS-232 serial controlled device using an RJ45 connector (not included) to the RS232 port on the rear of the controller.The EL-SC-100 serial connector is not compatible with RS-485 serial devices. If your project requires RS-485 connections you will need to use a gSC10 controller.Below is the wiring pin-out for the RJ45 connector.
Sense Input Connection
ELAN sensors can be used to trigger events from 3rd party devices. The status is binary, either ON or OFF. This can be used to trigger an event map or as a condition of an event map. CONNECT ONLY an ELAN sensor to this port.
Available ELAN sensors:Audio Sensor ……………………………………. P/N: AUDSENSORVideo Sensor…………………………………….. P/N: VIDSENSORContact Closure Sensor ……………………… P/N: CTSENSORCurrent / Magnetic Field Sensor…………… P/N: CRSENSORLight / LED Sensor …………………………….. P/N: LTSENSORVoltage Sensor………………………………….. P/N: VTSENSOR
IR Output Connection
Three discrete IR outputs are supplied to control third party devices. Each output is compatible with Xantech single and dual emitters
HDMI Connection
The EL-SC-100 includes an HDMI connector for an on screen display (OSD) interface. Connect the OSD output to an available HDMI input on a display or AVR.
USB Connection
The USB connection is primarily designed for connecting the optional USB Z-Wave antenna. See the integration note for configuring Z-Wave devices through the EL-SC-100.
LAN / PoE Connection
The EL-SC-100 has a Gigabit PoE compatible Ethernet port. Connect an Ethernet cable to an available port on the network.Note: The EL-SC-100 can be connected via Wi-Fi, however a wired connection is preferred.The EL-SC-100 can be powered over Ethernet (PoE). The minimum PoE requirement is IEEE 802.3at. 42.5 – 57 VDC, 600 mA maximum.
Located on the right side of the controller, is the recessed pinhole button that can be used in three ways:1. 2 second press and release resets the controller to DHCP 2. 20 second press and release removes all configuration information.Software version will be maintained. 3. While applying power, a 10 second press and release will perform a fullfactory reset. Software will revert to factory default version. DO NOT remove power during a factory reset as it will permanently damage the unit. Allow the unit to reboot and become discoverable (about 4 minutes). Note: the LED will remain red during the reset process.
WARNING! THESE ACTIONS CANNOT BE UNDONE! 11
Power
Once all other connections have been completed, connect an Ethernet cable connected to a PoE switch or the 12 VDC, 1A power supply to the DC input.
When the controller is off, a short press powers unit on When the controller is on, a short press (less than three seconds) restarts controller. When the controller is on, a long press (3 seconds or longer) powers down the controller
LED Status Indicator
The LED communicates the status of the controller:Blue = Connected OK / PowerBlue flashing = Boot upAmber = No network foundRed = Boot failureRed flashing = Self-check failure
Network Connection
The EL-SC-100 is factory set to use DHCP. Connect to a wired network and use the ELAN Configurator to connect to the controller. Once connected, use configurator to set a static IP address or connect via Wi-Fi.
Software Update
Prior to configuring the controller, upgrade the software to the latest available version found on the ELAN Dealer Resources portal. Download and open the executable file and follow the on screen instructions.
