Product Description
The Soundweb Contrio EC-V is an amazing Ethernet wall controller designed for Harman HiQnet systems. It can control and monitor parameters in BSS Audio Soundweb London, Crown DCi series amplifiers, and other HiQnet devices. This controller comes in sleek black or elegant white, and is available in single - gang US Decora or single - gang EU form factors. It has a single Ethernet port for configuration, control, monitoring, and gets power via PoE. Configuring the EC - V is a breeze with simple drag - and - drop operations in the HiQnet Audio Architect software. The EC - V features one push/rotary encoder and one multi - color backlit encoder ring with eight color options and adjustable intensity. The push/rotary encoder is great for continuous parameter control like volume, and can be pressed for binary control such as mute or preset recall. The encoder ring can show a bouncing audio meter, and it can display volume or binary parameter settings when the encoder is used. The EC - V also supports a'sleep' function. After a set time without user input, it turns off all LEDs to avoid distraction in dim light, and wakes up with any user interaction. Plus, it can be remotely locked and unlocked. Key features include being an Ethernet wall controller, compatibility with various HiQnet devices, color options, form factor choices, PoE power, easy configuration, programmable controls, sleep function, and remote security. Technical specs: maximum network cable length is 328 feet (100 meters), power consumption is 300mA max at 48VDC, and recommended Ethernet cable wiring is VW - 1 Rated, 48VDC, 13W.
Using the BSS EC - V Ethernet Wall Controller is easy. First, connect it to your network using an Ethernet cable. You can configure it through the HiQnet Audio Architect software with simple drag - and - drop operations. To control volume, just rotate the push/rotary encoder. If you want to mute the system, press the encoder. The encoder ring will show useful information like volume and mute status. The controller has a sleep function. If you don't use it for a while, it'll turn off the LEDs to save energy and avoid distraction. Any touch on the encoder will wake it up. You can also lock and unlock it remotely through other control systems. When it comes to maintenance, keep the controller clean and dry. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. Make sure the network cable is in good condition and properly connected. If you have any issues, check the cable first and then refer to the software for error messages.
