Eclipse HX-PiCo
Page 23
Note:
Connect the power supplies to AC mains power using the IEC connectors on the
matrix’s rear panel. The matrix has two separate AC power entry connectors for the
two separate power supplies in the system (see section below).
Note:
The Eclipse HX-PiCo requires 100 - 240 VAC at 50 - 60 Hz. The maximum input
power to each of the two power supplies is 60 watts. For the power supply
specifications, see 8.7 Power supply unit.
Powering the Eclipse HX-PiCo
The Eclipse HX-PiCo matrix has two IEC mains AC power connectors that provide
separate power inputs for the redundant power supplies. If each AC input is
connected to a different mains AC branch, one power supply will continue to
operate if the other supply’s main AC branch fails.
Note:
CPU backup battery
The Eclipse HX-PiCo matrix is fitted with a non-rechargeable battery to maintain the
system memory (CPU) that stores the configuration maps and other system data in
the event of power failure or the unit being switched off for a period of time.
The Eclipse HX-PiCo battery is normally a 1/2AA 3V VARTA 6127-201-301 and
is fitted on shipment. The battery has a capacity of 970mAh and a life of
approximately 252 days.
Note:
If the matrix is stored for more than three months, or if the AC power to the matrix
is regularly turned off, a qualified service person should be contacted to disconnect
the CPU backup battery before storing the matrix. Only a qualified service person
should attempt to disconnect the battery.
Connecting the Eclipse HX-PiCo to external devices
You can connect the Eclipse HX-PiCo to the following external devices:
Thirty-two Eclipse HX intercom panels or interfaces.
Eight general purpose outputs (GPOs or relays).
Eight general purpose inputs (GPIs).
Up to ten external GPI/RLY interfaces.
An additional Eclipse HX-PiCo matrix to form a 72-port linked system.
A local area network (LAN) connection for Ethernet-based communication
with a network.
An external computer (for the EHX configuration software).
Note:
For detailed information about connecting external devices to matrix frames
(matrices), including cabling information, see the Eclipse HX Matrix Frame
Installation Guide.
