6.4 Connecting the matrix frame to a PC running
Production Maestro Pro
Production Maestro Pro is the is a multi-user, multi-matrix PC based software package
which provides fast, intuitive audio routing control for Eclipse HX systems.

6.4.1 LMC-64 interface card
Access to the audio level metering functionality of Production Maestro Pro is usually
achieved using the LMC-64 interface card.
For more information about the LMC-64 interface card (which you can fit to either an Eclipse
HX-Omega, Eclipse HX-Median or Eclipse HX-Delta matrix frame), see:
• The LMC-64 manual.
• The Eclipse HX-Omega User Guide.
• The Eclipse HX-Median User Guide.
• The Eclipse HX-Delta User Guide.
6.5 Connecting the matrix frame to user panels
The Eclipse HX system uses a 4-pair (analog) wiring scheme between the matrix frame and
user panels (V-Series and I-Series panels). All supported panels have built-in RJ-45
connectors.
6.5.1 4-Pair analog wiring
4-pair analog wiring is performed with shielded CAT5 RJ-45 cable:
Pair
Description
Pair 1
Transmits analog audio from the matrix to the panel.
Pair 2
Transmits digital data from the panel back to the matrix.
Pair 3
Transmits audio from the panel to the matrix.
Pair 4
Transmits digital data from the matrix back to the panel.
