ECLIPSE OMEGA MATRIX INSTRUCTION MANUAL

MAINTENANCE
INTRODUCTION
The Eclipse Omega matrix system connects a complex network of
microprocessor controlled devices. Due to the complexity of the system, you
should limit field service to isolating a problem to the specific circuit board that
may be causing the problem. Once the circuit board has been identified, it can be
either repaired or replaced.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS
MAINTAINING THE MATRIX
Because the matrix has moving air in it, the entire matrix should be cleaned at
least once a year. To clean the matrix, shut off AC power, remove all cards, and
use compressed air to remove any dust buildup in the matrix itself. Clean all
cards with a brush to remove dust buildup.
WARNING: Care should be taken not to induce a static discharge in the cards.
Use of a grounding wrist strap is recommended. If a grounding wrist strap is not
available, touch an unpainted metal surface on the matrix chassis periodically to
neutralize static electricity.
RECOMMENDED SPARE PARTS
To facilitate quick repair of the system with minimum downtime, Clear-Com
recommends keeping the following spare system components in good working
condition at all times:
• One CPU card
• One port card
• One Euro Cassette power supply module
• One of each type of intercom panel in the system
• One of each type of interface in the system
FAIL-SAFE MODES
High reliability is one of the main objectives of the Eclipse Omega system design.
The following features of the system minimize the effects of a component failure.
Due to the complexity of the
system, field service
generally should be limited
to isolating the specific
component with the
problem.
