GOcontroll Moduline controllers integrate 4G directly in the ECU, enabling robust mobile applications with seamless cloud connectivity.

The demand for robust, internet-connected control systems is growing across industries. With 4G Embedded inside the ECU, GOcontroll Moduline controllers eliminate the need for external modems. This integration not only simplifies system design but also ensures direct, reliable connectivity for mobile applications that rely on real-time cloud interaction.

Traditionally, external modems were required to bring embedded controllers online. GOcontroll Moduline controllers change this by embedding 4G directly into the ECU hardware. This approach delivers several advantages:

• Reduced hardware complexity – no need for separate modems.
• Lower latency – faster, direct communication with the cloud.
• Improved reliability – fewer components mean fewer points of failure.
• Compact design – optimized for mobile and rugged applications.

This makes Moduline controllers a perfect fit for industries where uptime, durability, and data connectivity are critical.

With 4G Embedded in ECU, Moduline controllers unlock advanced use cases:

• Agriculture – tractors and machinery send performance and sensor data directly to the cloud for predictive maintenance.
• Automotive after-market – fleet monitoring, e-trailers, and hydrogen storage systems benefit from live telemetry.
• Smart infrastructure – water management and energy systems can be remotely monitored and updated.

Since Moduline controllers support cloud-based management, companies can push over-the-air updates, monitor system health, and enable predictive maintenance.

GOcontroll’s Moduline family is built for the field. Each controller is housed in an IP67-rated enclosure with CNC-milled aluminum, ensuring protection against dust, water, and vibrations. Combined with integrated 4G, this makes them ideal for vehicles, remote installations, and other demanding environments.

Connectivity alone is not enough. The Moduline controllers combine 4G Embedded in ECU with powerful software:

• MATLAB Simulink integration for model-based design.
• Node-RED for visual programming and setting up cloud communication (MQTT, HTTP, TCP).
• GOcontroll services for managing WWAN, GNSS, and cloud connections.

This software ecosystem ensures that engineers can design, deploy, and maintain connected systems quickly and securely.

The Moduline platform is modular by design. Depending on the project, engineers can add I/O modules, GNSS, or display units. With built-in 4G, every configuration is immediately ready for cloud integration. This flexibility shortens development cycles and future-proofs investments.

By embedding 4G directly into the ECU, GOcontroll Moduline controllers empower industries to build smarter, connected, and more reliable systems. From agriculture to mobility solutions, this combination of rugged hardware and seamless connectivity ensures that businesses stay ahead in a rapidly digitizing world.
