• Local and global ISO routes
• Control labels
The Eclipse PiCo matrix allows TCP/IP access to the system for
updates. The system may be accessed remotely for programming or to
retrieve configurations. Up to four full-system configurations may be
stored in the Eclipse PiCo matrix, and an unlimited number of
configurations may be backed up on a computer and downloaded to
the matrix as needed.
INDIVIDUAL LEVEL CONTROL
Both incoming and outgoing volume levels can be adjusted for each
device connected to an Eclipse PiCo port, which allows the Eclipse
PiCo to be connected to a wide variety of panels and communications
devices either directly via the port or via interfaces. On the panels,
individual listen-level controls allow the operator to adjust the level of
each key to provide a customized audio “mix”.
EXCELLENT AUDIO QUALITY
The Eclipse PiCo matrix features industry-leading 24-bit, 48 kHz audio
sampling, yielding a frequency response of 30 Hz to 22 kHz, ± 3 dB.
With a signal-to-noise ratio better than –70 dB, and crosstalk better
than –70 dB, the audio among panels, interfaces, and other system
inputs and outputs is clean and distinct. Level adjustments are in
0.355 dB steps, which will sound completely smooth to the user.
ROBUST AND COMPATIBLE
The Eclipse PiCo matrix houses two independent power supplies.
These may be connected to a main and backup power source for
redundancy. In the unlikely event of the failure of one of these power
supplies, the second supply will automatically take over. The Eclipse
PiCo is robust even in the face of a major power outage. In the event of
a complete power interruption, the system will return with all previously
set talk and listen paths in place when power is restored.
The Eclipse PiCo matrix is fully compatible with Clear-Com’s modular
matrix interface modules and frames. It can transparently interface
with telephones, two-way radios, camera and 2-wire intercoms, 4-wire
devices, and audio sources. Eclipse PiCo is also compatible with most
of the matrix intercom panels, including the V-Series, ICS-92,
ICS-2003, 4000 series, and i-stations.
NOTE: The term
“central matrix” is used
to differentiate the
system’s core hardware
and software from the
connected intercom
panels and interfaces.
The central matrix itself
consists of the matrix
hardware and
configuration software.
