The EC-8BV can control and monitor parameters within BSS Audio Soundweb London and other HiQnet devices, including Crown DCi series amplifiers.\nThe EC-8BV is available in black or white, and in dual-gang US Decora or dual-gang EU form factor. The EC-8BV contains a single Ethernet port for configuration, control, monitoring, and power via PoE. The EC-8BV is configured via simple drag-and-drop operations within the software application HiQnet Audio Architect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe EC-8BV contains one push\/rotary encoder, one encoder ring, eight buttons, and two LCD screens. The buttons, encoder ring, and LCD screens are multi-color backlit, capable of eight different colors with adjustable intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe push\/rotary encoder can be rotated for continuous parameter control (e.g. volume). The push\/rotary encoder can also be pressed for binary parameter control (e.g. mute) or preset recall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe encoder ring can display a bouncing audio meter. When the push\/rotary encoder is rotated, the encoder ring can temporarily display a volume setting. When the push\/rotary encoder is pressed, the encoder ring can temporarily display a binary parameter setting (e.g. red\/green for muted\/unmuted status).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe eight buttons can be pressed for binary parameter control (e.g. mute), preset recall, or source selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe two LCD screens each have a screen resolution of 64x128 pixels, and can each display custom text.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe EC-8BV supports ‘sleep’ functionality. After a specified amount of time with no user input, the EC-8BV can turn off all LEDs. This is useful to avoid distraction in a dimly lit environment. Any user interaction will ‘wake up’ the controller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe EC-8BV can be remotely locked and unlocked via other control systems. The EC-8BV can be locally unlocked via a four-digit PIN entry on the buttons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe EC-8BV supports multiple modes of operation. This allows the push\/rotary encoder, encoder ring, and certain buttons to be reassigned dynamically to different parameters based on which buttons are selected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEthernet Wall Controller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with BSS Audio Soundweb London, Crown DCi, and other HiQnet devices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in Black or White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in US Decora or EU Version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-Gang Size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoE (Power Over Ethernet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfigured within Audio Architect via Drag-and-Drop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Programmable Push\/Rotary Encoder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Programmable Encoder Ring (Multicolored)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 Programmable Buttons (Multicolored)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Programmable 64x128 Pixel LCDs (Multicolored)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleep Function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecurity: Remote Lock\/Unlock and Local Unlock via PIN Entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple Modes of Operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: BSS Audio U.S.A.\u003cbr\u003eModel: EC-8BV-BLK-US\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I468144-GA251006-21-WHXE\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 691991600920\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
