3.3.4 Checking the installed system
After configuring the Eclipse HX system, check that every system component is functioning
correctly, including all:
• Control inputs, outputs and audio paths.
• Connections with connected external devices, such as interface modules and User
Panels
• Software functions, such as partylines, ISO and IFB functionality.
To assist with testing, the Eclipse HX system is delivered with a fully functional default EHX
configuration. You can tailor the configuration, using EHX software, to meet the
requirements of your particular installation.
Note:
Because each installation is different, it is beyond the scope of this guide to outline in detail
all the checks that you must carry out.
