INTERFERENCE STATEMENT:
This equipment has bee n tested and found to comply with the limits for
a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed a nd used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful inter ference to radio
communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a par ticular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful inter ference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the inter ference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation betwe en the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dif ferent
from that to which the receive r is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ T V technician for help.

Z-Wave Developer’s Kit: 7.13.1
This product can be operated in any Z-Wave™ network with other Z-Wave
certied devices from other manufacturers. All mains operated nodes within
the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to incre ase 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, reset ting it will
result in the node s in your network being orphaned and it will be necessar y
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 networ k prima ry
controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.

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 expose d and slide the
chassis over the screws.

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
device s. 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.

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 AV R.
USB Connection
The USB connection is primarily designed for connecting the optional USB
Z-Wave antenna. See the integration note for conguring 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 por t on the network.
Note: The EL-SC-100 can be conne cted 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.
RESET Button
Located on the right side of the controller, is the recessed pinhole button
that can be used in three ways:
1. 2 second pres s and release resets the controller to DHCP
2. 20 second press and release removes all conguration information.
Software version will be maintained.
3. While applying power, a 10 second press and release will perform a full
factory reset. Software will revert to factory default version. DO NOT
remove powe r during a factor y 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!

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.
Power Button
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 / Power
Blue ashing = Boot up
Amber = No network found
Red = Boot failure
Red ashing = Self-check failure
