The ELAU PacDrive C600/10/1/1/1/00 is a controller-based automation unit for machines that require coordinated logic control, drive synchronization, and distributed I/O handling within one PacDrive architecture.
Unlike a servo amplifier, the C600 does not supply motor power directly. Its main function is to calculate motion profiles, execute PLC programs, coordinate machine sequences, and exchange real-time data with connected servo drives through the SERCOS fiber optic network.
This controller is especially suited to machinery with many synchronized axes. It can manage up to 99 compatible SERCOS servo drives, while also providing integrated digital I/O, analog channels, Ethernet communication, PROFIBUS DP, CAN or CANopen connectivity, and two PacNet interfaces.
The integrated CompactFlash storage, battery-backed real-time clock, trace recorder, diagnostic display, and remote-service communication functions make the C600 suitable for maintaining established PacDrive machine platforms where exact controller replacement is required.

Installation Notes
Install the C600 inside a grounded control cabinet and use the correct 24 VDC power supply. Confirm the existing firmware version, CompactFlash card, SERCOS fiber routing, fieldbus configuration, and connected drive topology before replacing an installed controller.
This controller is intended for PacDrive system integration. It should not be described as a standalone servo drive, motor inverter, or ordinary PLC I/O module.
