VERIFYING THE SHIPMENT
When the Eclipse-32 system is received inspect the boxes for shipping
damage. Report any shipping damage to the carrier. The Eclipse-32
distributor is not responsible for shipping damage.
Check the packing list and verify that every item on the list has been
received. Save all packing materials in the event any items need to be
returned.
UNPACKING THE SYSTEM
The system will include an Eclipse-32 matrix which contains the
hardware, and the software for the system. The user will need to
supply:
• A standard 19 inch wide (48.26 cm) Electronics Industry Association
rack in which to install the matrix.
• A personal computer to run the Eclipse Configuration System
programming software (ECS). The Eclipse Configuration System
software runs on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server
2003 and Windows Vista (with restrictions). When running ECS on
Windows operating systems, the client and server can run on
separate machines connected over a network.
• Shielded category-5 cables to connect to panels and interfaces.
