(4) Enter “192.168.0.1” in No. 2 “IP Address” and “255.255.255.0” in the No.2 “Subnet Netmask” column. Click on "OK” to complete the setting. Only the equipment within the IP range can be connected to the ELC-COENETM module. MN05006001E For more Information visit: www.eaton.com...
(4) Check all the events that you want to trigger emails to “Recipient 1”. Click on “OK” to complete the setting. (5) The emails are triggered by writes to the appropriate CRs of the ELC-COENETM module (CR#3-CR#6). After all the settings in ELC-COENETM are completed, enter a program that loads the CR registers based on desired trigger event, compile the ladder diagram and download it to the MPU.

ELC-COENETM module is IP address 192.168.1.5. The PC IP address and network mask need to be set up to reside on the same network as the ELC-COENETM. This will allow you to connect to each module using ECISoft on Ethernet. If you choose to use RS232 to configure the Ethernet modules, use the ELC programming cable to connect to each Ethernet module to set the IP address and Subnet Mask.

When data is placed into D200-D209 in the master controller, it will be sent to D100-D109 in the remote controller. Data in D300-319 in the remote controller will be sent to D50-D69 in the master controller. For more Information visit: www.eaton.com MN05006001E...
ELC and any Modbus TCP server device. The figure below shows an ELC processor with an ELC-COENETM acting as a Modbus TCP client to an Eaton SVX drive that has an Ethernet OPTCi board installed. The drive is at IP= 196.168.0.197.
Setting up Data Exchange between ELC processor to other Modbus TCP clients The ELC-COENETM modules can be used for high performance data exchange between any Modbus TCP master and the ELC processors acting as a Modbus TCP server. In the figure below, SCADA software running on the PC acts as a Modbus TCP client to initiate data exchange with the ELC processor.
5.10 (ELC-CAENET) This application example will demonstrate how to set up an ELC-COENETM Ethernet module to read and write I/O data from an ELC-CAENET Ethernet distributed I/O adapter. The software used to configure the adapter and the COENETM module is called ECISoft and is included in ELCSoft.

ELC-COENETM module is IP address 192.168.1.5. The PC IP address and network mask need to be set up to reside on the same network as the ELC-COENETM. This will allow you to immediately connect to each module using ECISoft on Ethernet. If you choose to use RS232 to configure the Ethernet modules, use the ELC programming cable to connect to each Ethernet module to set the IP address and Subnet Mask.
