Level control
You can connect the Eclipse HX-PiCo to a wide range of user panels and other
intercom devices either directly or through the interface cards and modules (fitted
to other system or interface frames).
You can:
Adjust both incoming and outgoing volume levels for each device connected
to an Eclipse HX-PiCo port.
Create a customized audio mix by using the individual listen-level controls
on connected user panels to adjust the level of each key.
Power supplies
An Eclipse HX-PiCo matrix has two internal power supply units. One power supply
unit can power the 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.
A power-supply failure sensor is connected to a warning light, allowing power
anomalies to be diagnosed.
Rear panel connectors (Ports)
The Eclipse HX-PiCo matrix connects to remote devices such as intercom panels,
interfaces, general purpose inputs and outputs, local area networks, and other
matrices through its rear-panel hardware connectors.
A rear-panel RJ-45 connector (to which cable is connected to run from the matrix to
a user panel or interface module) is called a port.
Shielded CAT-5 cable is connected to a port to carry signals from the Eclipse HX-
PiCo to connected devices.
