Each interface module has hardware connectors to connect to both the central
matrix and the external device that communicates with the central matrix.
Most interface modules connect to the central matrix via shielded CAT5 cable
terminated with RJ-45 connectors.
Note: The type of cable used to connect the interface module to the non-four-wire
device varies with the device. For more information, see the dedicated user
guide / manual for that interface module.
The following interface modules are compatible with the Eclipse HX-Delta matrix:
• TEL-14 telephone interface module.
• CCI-22 dual party-line interface module.
• FOR-22 four-wire interface.
• GPI-6 general purpose inputs interface module.
• RLY-6 relay (general-purpose outputs) interface module.
• AES-6 digital interface module used with V-Series panels fitted with the
AES-3 option card. It may also be used with AES-3 compliant third party
equipment.
Note: Additional interface modules may be added to the Eclipse HX-Delta, using
separate interface module frames such as the IMF-3 and IMF-102. For more
information, see the dedicated user guide / manual for that particular interface
frame.
Note: DIG-2 interface modules are not compatible with the Eclipse HX-Delta.
3.6 EHX configuration software
The Eclipse HX (EHX) configuration software 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 (the operating parameters of complete system setups) are
usually created on the EHX computer.
Up to four complete system configurations can be stored in the CPU card of the
Eclipse
HX-Delta, for retrieval and activation when required. The external PC that hosts
the EHX software can store an almost unlimited number of complete system
configurations (the number is only limited by the available memory space on the
PC). You can download the configurations to the Eclipse HX-Delta as required.
EHX 8.5.1 runs on the following versions of Windows:
• Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit and 64-bit).
• Microsoft Windows 8.1 (32-bit and 64-bit)
• Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit and 64-bit)
• Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)
