ETC continues to expand its Unison Echo® line of products with the new Echo
Expansion Bridge. “We’re thrilled about continually expanding the capabilities of
Echo control systems,’ says ETC Architectural Market Manager Bryan Palmer. “It’s
an exciting time at ETC.’
Buildings and venues that want to expand current Echo control systems will find
Echo Expansion Bridge is the ideal solution. Each Echo Expansion Bridge can contain
up to four Echo segments, each segment supporting the existing Echo maximum of
16 spaces with each space allowing up to 16 zones of control. This means that Echo
control systems are now able to include up to 64 Echo devices, such as Inspire®
stations, occupancy/vacancy sensors, light sensors and output products. “Echo
Expansion Bridge lets users combine smaller systems together to make a larger
Echo control system,’ explains ETC Architectural Product Manager Lowell Olcott, “By
adding up to four Echo segments together we can expand the number of devices in
an Echo system.’
When combined with the EchoAccess mobile app, Echo Expansion Bridge is able to
allow access to the Echo network over a secure Wi-Fi connection, allowing users to
configure and control the Echo control systems from tablets and smartphones. Echo
Expansion Bridge also provides all-inclusive control between Unison Paradigm® and
Echo control systems. Paradigm systems can output commands to the Echo control
system, letting users activate and deactivate presets in Echo spaces and directly
control zones.
