6. Instrument configuration

Before using your ECLIPSE you need to configure it; read completely this chapter and follow step by step the sections to
completely configure all the sensors, alarms and preferences.

Note that this manual relate to ECLIPSE IFIS (complete version of ECLIPSE), your instrument may not have all the functions
indicated below. The available ECLIPSE versions are:

- ECLIPSE IFIS (Integrated Flight Information System): complete version that include all athe functions described in this
manual.
- ECLIPSE PFD (Primary Flight Display): attitude indicator and flight data version.
- ECLIPSE EIS (Engine Information System): engine and fuel management data version.
- ECLIPSE MFD (Multi Function Display): copilot side version that permits viewing all data available from main ECLIPSE

unit (EIS, PFD or IFIS).

Note also that functions and screens of your ECLIPSE may differ from what depicted in this manual depending on what optional
sensors you had installed.

6.1 System setup menu

Press both P1 and P4 buttons for 2 seconds to enter in the setup menu (main instrument configuration menu):

- Rotate the knob to navigate through the menu items.
