POWER SUPPLIES
Eclipse Omega matrix has two Euro Cassette power supply units that
can be easily installed or removed as needed. One power supply unit
can power an entire matrix; the second unit provides a backup in case
of failure or damage to the first unit.
In addition, the two supplies have separate IEC connectors to AC
mains, and are designed for completely automatic and transparent
changeover between supplies in the event of a power outage in one of
the AC mains circuits.
An over-temperature sensor is connected to both an audible failure
alarm and a warning light, allowing the system operator to diagnose
and correct any power anomalies while the system remains
operational.
MVX-A16 ANALOG PORTS
The matrix’s MVX-A16 interface RJ-45 connectors are called analog
ports. Shielded category-5 cable is used to connect an analog port to
intercom panels or interfaces.
ECLIPSE CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE (ECS)
The Eclipse Configuration Software (ECS) application controls the
operation of the connected audio devices by sending signals to the
circuit cards in the matrix, which then relay the signals to the audio
devices.
“Configurations”—which are the operating parameters of complete
system setups, can be created from the ECS computer. Up to four
complete system configurations can be stored in the matrix to retrieve
and activate when needed. An unlimited number of configurations can
be stored on the ECS computer to be downloaded to the matrix as
required.
The Eclipse Configuration Software application runs on four versions
of Windows: Windows XP Professional, Windows Server 2003,
Windows Vista and Windows 7. When running ECS on the four
Windows operating systems, the client and server can run on separate
machines connected over a network.
Note: Windows Vista and Windows 7 are not fully supported by
ECS; please refer to the ECS manual (part 810299Z) for
further information.
Using ECS the system administrator can create point-to-point and
fixed group or party-line communications among the connected audio
devices, assign a “label” to each port/panel, inhibit or enable features
at any connected panel and configure connections between matrices.
The ECS system can be set up to run on a client/server model over a
