BSS EC-V-WHT-EU Ethernet Controller with Volume Control - White EU Version

Efficient Ethernet Controller for HiQnet Systems
The BSS EC-V Ethernet Controller is a versatile and efficient wall controller designed for use in Harman HiQnet systems. This controller is compatible with BSS Audio Soundweb London and Crown DCi series amplifiers, allowing for easy control and monitoring of audio parameters across a range of HiQnet devices. Powered by Power over Ethernet (PoE), the EC-V simplifies installation by using a single Ethernet connection for power, control, and monitoring. Whether you're working with a small home theater system or a large-scale commercial installation, the EC-V offers intuitive control with minimal setup.

Seamless Setup and Configuration with HiQnet Audio Architect
Setting up the EC-V is straightforward thanks to the HiQnet Audio Architect software. With a simple drag-and-drop interface, users can easily configure the controller to meet their specific needs. The software allows you to assign functions to the encoder, encoder ring, and buttons, providing quick access to important audio parameters such as volume, preset recall, and mute. By using a single Ethernet port for both power and communication, the EC-V eliminates the need for additional power cables, ensuring a clean and efficient setup.

Intuitive Control with Push/Rotary Encoder and Multicolor Feedback
The BSS EC-V features a push/rotary encoder that provides continuous control over various parameters, such as volume adjustments. The encoder can also be pressed for binary control, like muting or recalling presets. In addition to the encoder, the EC-V includes a multicolored encoder ring, capable of displaying eight different colors with adjustable intensity. This encoder ring provides visual feedback, such as a bouncing audio meter or a volume setting, ensuring that users can easily monitor system status at a glance. When pressed, the encoder ring indicates binary settings (e.g., mute/unmute) in red or green, offering clear and intuitive control.

Energy-Efficient Sleep Function for Dim Environments
The EC-V comes with an energy-saving sleep function, automatically turning off all LEDs after a period of inactivity. This is especially useful in environments where you want to avoid distractions, such as home theaters, conference rooms, or broadcast studios. The controller can easily be “woken up” with any user interaction, ensuring that it is always ready when needed. This functionality enhances the user experience by maintaining a clean and professional environment while conserving energy.

Security Features with Remote and Local Locking
For added security, the EC-V includes both remote and local locking features. The controller can be remotely locked or unlocked via other HiQnet devices, allowing for secure control in larger, networked systems. Additionally, the EC-V offers a local unlock option via a four-digit PIN entry, ensuring that only authorized users can access and modify system settings. This feature adds an extra layer of protection to your HiQnet system, giving you peace of mind that your setup remains secure at all times.

Sleek and Compact Design for Easy Integration
The EC-V Ethernet Controller is designed in a single-gang size, making it compatible with standard electrical boxes for easy installation. The sleek, modern design in white ensures that the controller blends seamlessly into a variety of environments. Whether you are installing it in a commercial space, a home theater, or a conference room, the EC-V provides both style and functionality, offering a professional look that complements your existing decor.
