MAU Connection (ELCN Bridge Only)
• UEA based ELCN Bridge requires LCN connection, this is done using new MAU Cables
• New smaller MAU Cables are introduced for UEA based ELCN Bridge
- MAU ports are smaller to accommodate connector in back of UEA
Does not need special mounting location for MAU
- One MAU Cable per LCN cable connection
Failure of one MAU Cable will not affect ELCN Bridge connection

ELCN Guiding Architectural Principles
• All existing “Customer-created TDC data objects” (checkpoints, button configuration files,
display objects, CL/AM objects, etc) run without recompile, rebuild, or reconstruction
• For any given “Customer-created TDC data object” source file, there will be only one
compiled object file
• Customer experience on similar node types of differing architectures will be the same
• All data on the wire will be in same format, supporting hybrid Coax LCN and ELCN topology
communications
• All data on mass storage will be in same format, supporting consistent data internally and
external to ELCN
13

Experion LCN Capacity
• Capacity of LCN Personality Remains Unchanged
- Retain Underlying Execution Timing
- Retain Code
- ELCN has Same Capacity Limitations
• ELCN Bridge
- ELCN has 8 times the network capacity than what it needs in a
fully loaded 96 node system
- Bridging Function doesn’t take much CPU capacity (60% CPU
free)
• ELCN Uses Multi-Cast
- Must follow FTE Best Practices
- LCN Traffic unchanged when node switched to ELCN
- Isolated to ELCN and LCN Nodes using IGMP snooping

LCN Load Reduction Using EHPM Experion Integration15
• Convert to HMIWeb Displays
• Reduce # of Op Stations (Max
20 ES-T),
• Can Still Increase Monitor
Area
• Move TPN History to Experion
History and remove HM used for
History
• Move from E-APP OPC
collection to ESV-T
• C300 direct connect

EPLCG
• There are 6 different configurations of PLC attachment associated with PLCG/EPLCG
- The two protocols required some separate handling (especially for LCN module redundancy)
- Redundancy also adds variety to the configuration of the EPLCG
- The result is that customers could have any one or a combination of up to 6 configuration types

Migration Planning
• Determine the desired location for the ELCN Bridge UEA modules
• Locate ELCN Bridge Nodes and Appliance nodes so that the front-panel displays are readable
• Determine the sequence of the nodes which are to be migrated
- Controller Level (Level 1) migration path
- Level 2 TPS Nodes migration path
• Identify the nodes that need to be shut down and removed/relocated prior to performing the disassembly procedure
- Follow appropriate procedures to shut down the applicable nodes before proceeding with any disassembly
• Very Important:
- For ELCN:
Virtualization planning
