9.6 Connecting HelixNet Party-line to Eclipse
9.6.1 About Eclipse
Eclipse is the digital matrix system from Clear-Com. A wide choice of system frames, system cards and
modules enables the unification of multiple intercoms systems (digital, analog, wired and wireless) in a
single intercoms infrastructure.
Eclipse is configured, managed and maintained using the intuitive Eclipse Configuration Software (ECS).
The Production Maestro software provides a centralized routing tool, to assist with four-wire
configurations. Logic Maestro is a graphical programming tool for ECS, simplifying the design and
programming of complex logical functions.
The following procedures reference the following Eclipse devices:
• The Eclipse Median system frame. The Eclipse Median is a 6RU frame that houses 2 CPU and
7 matrix slots with 8 built-in interface module slots.
• The CCI-22 interface module. The CCI-22 is the two-wire party-line interface (Clear-Com and /
or RTS) to Eclipse. ECS views a direct, four-wire HelixNet Party-line connection with the system
frame as a ‘virtual’ CCI-22 connection.
Tip: For more information about Eclipse, see your Eclipse / ECS documentation or visit the digital matrix
