if the fuel characteristics require a change. Short pellets feed faster and may require adjusting the
feed down if black smoke is present while the unit is running.
To change the program on the board, the Stove must be off and plugged in. The programs are
identical in operation, except for the Cycle Time. The Cycle time is the total of the ON Time &
OFF Time added together. The ON Times are constant, so this means that the OFF Time is
increased or decreased, depending on the program chosen.
The programs break down as follows:
1 -
Program 1.
The Cycle Time is 7.5 seconds. This program will be the default program when
the Stove is first plugged in. This program is for use with the Eclipse-P single hopper unit.
Do not use with the Eclipse-MF dual hopper unit.
2 -
Program 2.
The Cycle Time is 8.5 seconds. This program is for use with the Eclipse-P single
hopper unit
.
Do not use with any other fuels.
3 -
Program 3.
The Cycle Time is 8.5 seconds. This program is for use with, Corn, Wheat, Rye,
Cherry Pits & Distillers Grain Pellets.
For use with the Eclipse-MF unit only.
4 -
Program 4.
The Cycle Time is 9.5 seconds.
This program is for use with Corn, Wheat,
Rye, Cherry Pits and Distillers Grain Pellets.
For use with the Eclipse-MF unit only.
As the Cycle Time increases, the BTU rate of the stove decreases. Program 1 will have a Higher
BTU rating than pellets burning on program 2. Programs 3 & 4 are only to be used with the
Eclipse-MF unit.
