the same computer. When running ECS on the other Windows operating
systems, the client and server can run on separate machines connected over a
network.
From the Eclipse Configuration System, you can create point-to-point and fixed
group or party-line communications among the connected remote audio devices,
assign a "label" to each port/station, and inhibit or enable features at any
connected remote station. You can set up the system to run on a client/server
model over a network, allowing you to control the matrix remotely.
REMOTE INTERCOM STATIONS AND ACCESSORY PANELS
All analog intercom stations connect to the central matrix via shielded category-5
cable terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Digital stations connect to the central
matrix through the DIG-2 digital module interface. Digital stations require
double-shielded 24 AWG conductor category-6 enhanced (CAT-6E) cable.
The following intercom stations are compatible with the Eclipse-32 matrix
system:
• i-Station family, including expansion panels
• ICS-2003 intercom station, including expansion panels
• ICS-52 and ICS-92 intercom stations, including expansion panels
• ICS-62 and ICS-102 intercom stations, including expansion panels
• ICS-1008 and ICS-1016 intercom stations, including expansion panels
Each of these stations is described in its own manual. For a full description of the
operation, installation, and maintenance of a station, refer to that station's
respective manual.
REMOTE INTERFACES
Interface modules convert the 4-wire signals of a central matrix port to other
types of signals that communicate with devices such as telephones, camera
intercoms, two-way radios, and so on. In this way non-4-wire devices can
communicate with the central matrix.
Each interface module has hardware connectors to connect to both the central
matrix and to the external device that communicates with the central matrix.
Most interface modules connect to the central matrix via shielded category-5
cable terminated with RJ-45 connectors. The DIG-2 digital interface module,
however, connects to the central matrix via double-shielded 24 AWG conductor
category-6 enhanced (CAT-6E) STP cable.
The type of cable used to connect the interface module to the non-4-wire device
varies with the device. Each of these connections is described more fully in the
individual manual for each interface.
The following interface modules are compatible with the Eclipse-32 matrix:
• TEL-14 telephone interface module
• CCI-22 dual party-line interface module
