The BSS Soundweb Contrio EC-V is a professional Ethernet wall controller designed for use with Harman HiQnet systems. It integrates seamlessly with BSS Audio Soundweb London, Crown DCi series amplifiers, and other HiQnet-enabled devices, providing reliable and intuitive control over audio systems.

Featuring a push/rotary encoder and multicolor encoder ring, the EC-V allows for precise volume control, preset recall, and binary parameter management all from a single wall-mounted interface.

Networked Control & Configuration

The EC-V uses a single Ethernet port for:

  • Configuration
  • Control and monitoring
  • Power via PoE (Power over Ethernet)

All programming is done via HiQnet Audio Architect using a simple drag-and-drop interface, allowing system integrators to quickly set up and manage the controller.

Encoder & Ring Operation

Push/Rotary Encoder

  • Rotate for continuous control (e.g., volume adjustment)
  • Press for binary control (e.g., mute/unmute) or preset recall

Encoder Ring

  • Multicolor LED ring with adjustable brightness
  • Displays a bouncing audio meter when rotating
  • Temporarily shows volume or binary states (red/green for mute/unmute)

Sleep & Security Features

The EC-V includes a sleep function to disable LEDs after a set period of inactivity, reducing distraction in dimly lit environments. Any user interaction wakes the controller instantly.
