Simple & Affordable Cabling

The EC-4BV is an Ethernet device, powered via PoE (Power over Ethernet). This means that power and control is passed over a single connected Cat 5e cable.

HiQnet Compatiblity

In addition to being able to control Soundweb London parameters, the EC-4BV is able to control other HiQnet devices, including the Crown DriveCore Install Series amplifiers.

Sleep Function

After a specified amount of time with no user input, the EC-4BV can turn off all LEDs. This is useful to avoid distraction in a dimly lit environment. Any user interaction will ‘wake up’ the controller.

Multicolored Feedback

The EC-4BV has 4 multicolored buttons, 4 corresponding multi-colored screen positions and a multicolored encoder ring. 8 unique colors (red, yellow, green, cyan, blue, magenta, white and amber) can be used to signify different zones and their associated parameters. The maximum intensity of the LEDs can be adjusted to suit ambient light levels.

Lockout Function

The EC-4BV can be locked during the Sleep Function or at any other time. A 4-digit PIN must be entered in order to unlock the controller.

Encoder and Encoder Ring

Normally, the encoder ring will show a bouncing meter for the currently selected zone. When a volume adjustment is made, the encoder ring will show the volume level in the appropriate zone color. After a timeout, the encoder ring returns to showing the bouncing meter. On/off color states can be assigned to the push function. The first push of the encoder will show the current state of the assigned parameter on the whole encoder ring and any subsequent push will toggle the state of the parameter.
