4 Installing the Eclipse HX-Delta
This chapter describes how to install the Eclipse HX-Delta, including the power
supplies, CPU cards, interface cards and modules.
4.1 Before you begin the installation
4.1.1 Check the shipment
When the Eclipse HX-Delta is received, inspect the boxes for shipping damage.
Report any shipping damage to the carrier.
Check that every item on the packing list has been received. Save all packing
materials in the event that any items need to be returned.
Note: The Eclipse HX distributor is not responsible for shipping damage.
4.1.2 Unpacking the System
When the Eclipse HX-Delta system is received the CPU cards and interface cards,
power supplies, and rear-connector panels are pre-installed in the matrix
chassis.
The customer must supply:
• The standard 19-inch rack in which to install the matrix.
• A personal computer to run the EHX configuration software
Note: See 15.30 Minimum PC requirements (for EHX software)
and 15.31 Recommended PC requirements (for EHX
software) respectively.
• CAT5 cables (to connect the matrix to user panels, interface modules,
and other devices). Clear-Com recommends shielded cables.
4.1.3 Reconnecting the CPU card backup battery
Important: Before the Eclipse HX-Delta is installed, the CPU card’s backup
battery must be reconnected. The matrix will operate if the battery is not
reconnected. However, if the matrix is powered down, all run time information
(dynamic assignments, crosspoint states and levels) will be lost.
The CPU card has a lithium backup battery that powers the CPU memory if the
AC electricity fails. This backup battery is shipped disconnected to preserve
battery life.
