transmitter defaults to this display after 5 minutes if no
keystrokes are sensed.

2.6.4 Password Protection (Default = 0)
The ECLIPSE transmitter is password protected to restrict
access to certain portions of the menu structure that affect
the operation of the system. When the proper password is
entered, an exclamation point (!) appears as the last charac-
ter of the first line of the display. The password can be
changed to any numerical value up to 255. The password is
required whenever configuration values are changed.
The default user password installed in the transmitter at the
factory is 0. The last step in the configuration menu pro-
vides the option to enter a new password. With a password
of 0, the transmitter is no longer password protected and
any value in the menu can be adjusted without entering a
confirming password, except diagnostic values.
NOTE: If the password is not known, the menu item New Password
displays an encrypted value representing the present pass-
word. Call the factory with this encrypted value to determine
the present password.
