Matrix: Can I use CCI-2 and or FOR-2 interface front panel cards in a Median or IMF-3 frame?
Question: I have purchased a CCI-2 and FOR-2 interface cards from an old Matrix +2 system and want to know if these cards are compatible with a current Eclipse ECS or EHX Median frame or IMF-3 / IMF-102 interface frame. I realize that the rear panel interface cards will need to be replaced with current 710538 cards but will the front panel interfaces work with the new 710538 rear panel cards?
Answer: Check the part numbers silk screened on the pcbs of the CCI-2 2-wire interface and FOR-2 4-wire interface cards, if they have the following part numbers they should work with an Eclipse Median frame or IMF-3 or IMF-102 frame:
CCI-22 interface card
710215 - Null pcb
710214 - Main pcb assy
FOR-22 interface card
710255 - Level detection pcb
710316 - Main pcb assy
