ECLIPSE, 1-zone extension module

This module is designed to extend the capabilities of an existing ECLIPSE marine lighting system, developed by Lumishore. It adds an independent lighting zone to your system.

This module adds an independent lighting zone. A complete system can manage up to six distinct lighting zones when paired with an ECLIPSE control center.

Unlike the main control center which manages the first zones and control functions, this module focuses solely on adding an additional lighting zone, thereby enabling modularity in the lighting system.

The module operates on a 12 V supply, with an operating range of 10 to 15 V DC. It must not be connected to voltages outside this range or directly to AC power.

Maximum consumption of the module alone is 0.04 A, with average power under 0.5 W.

No, the ECLIPSE expansion module is designed to extend an existing ECLIPSE marine lighting system and must be connected to an ECLIPSE control hub to operate. It cannot be used standalone.

The ECLIPSE expansion module is compatible with the Garmin ECLIPSE control hub. It integrates with this hub to increase the number of available lighting zones.

Yes, the ECLIPSE control unit to which this module connects is compatible with Garmin MFDs, Raymarine (via a Raynet to RJ45 A80151 cable), Simrad/B&G (via a Navico 60-0373 conversion cable) and Furuno (via a standard CAT5e Ethernet cable). This multi-platform compatibility ensures integration flexibility.

The expansion module connects to the ECLIPSE control unit via a dedicated link cable. The control unit has dedicated ports for expansion modules (1 zone or 2 zones).

No, the ECLIPSE system, including this extension module, is designed to operate only on boats equipped with a 12V system. The operating voltage range is 10 to 15 VDC.

The expansion module must be mounted in a dry location, on a flat (non-curved) surface, and away from any heat or vibration sources to ensure proper operation and durability.

It is strongly recommended that a qualified professional performs the electrical and mechanical installation of the module to ensure correct and safe installation.

Before any installation, always ensure the vessel's power source and battery are disconnected or isolated to prevent any electrical risk.

Each output zone of the ECLIPSE system can support a maximum load of 10 amperes. Lights are connected directly to the zone outputs of the control center or extension modules.

Yes, the ECLIPSE control head to which the expansion module is connected must be wired to a suitable circuit breaker or fuse. The maximum total load for the control head is 30 amperes (10 amperes per zone).

After physical installation, you must access the ECLIPSE control center user interface. Select the 'Setup' icon, then 'Create zone', choose the corresponding zone output, light type, and color. A summary page will appear where you can edit the zone name and select an icon before saving. A power cycle of the control center is required after zone configuration.

Yes, once the zones have been configured via the ECLIPSE control center interface, you can select the color, effect, and intensity for each lighting zone, including those added by the module, and save them as a "Scene". These scenes can include a single zone or multiple zones, and even a zone set to "off".

The system is controlled via the ECLIPSE control center. This can be done via Wi-Fi from a smart device (phone or tablet) by connecting to the ECLIPSE hotspot or the MFD's Wi-Fi, or directly via a compatible multifunction display (MFD) connected to the Ethernet network.
