5 Using the Eclipse HX-Delta
This chapter describes how to operate the Eclipse HX-Delta matrix, including its
CPU cards and interface cards.
Note: For an overview of the Eclipse HX-Delta, see 3 Overview.
5.1 Creating and storing system configurations
A configuration is a complete set of operating parameters for the system which
includes talk and listen paths for each connected intercom device.
Depending on the interface cards and modules installed, the configuration can
include more complex features such as paging, call signaling, interrupt foldback
(IFB), ISO, groups, automatic DTMF dialing, and routing.
When an external computer is connected to the matrix, you can:
• Retrieve the current configuration information stored in the CPU
microprocessor’s memory and display the configuration in EHX.
• Apply the current configuration, modify it, or create a new configuration
in EHX.
If you create more than one configuration, you can store the unused
configurations on the computer’s hard disk or on CD-ROM for later use.
Note: The CPU card in the Eclipse HX-Delta stores up to four complete configurations.
You can apply a configuration directly from the CPU card or from the connected
PC.
5.2 Setting the default IP Address
To reset the CPU LAN ports to their default IP addresses, press and hold the
ENG and FULL RESET buttons on the CPU front card until the card resets.
Note: Do not release the ENG and FULL RESET buttons until the CPU
card LED panel shows either an A or a B.
The LAN1 Ethernet port is reset to the factory default address of
169.254.0.100 and the second Ethernet port to the 0.0.0.0 (blank) address.
The LAN1 reverts to a link local address of 169.254.0.100 only after trying
and failing to acquire an IP address from the network at startup.
The LAN1 defaults to the DHCP mode of operation. This mode of operation is
not to be used once the matrix is operational as it delays the start-up of the
matrix following any reset.
5.3 Using the CPU card Ethernet ports
The CPU card Ethernet ports are normally connected to a LAN and used to
communicate with clients such as EHX and Production Maestro. The Ethernet
port functionality depends on the IP address setup.
