Note: While operating the device from a DC power supply, the Battery may
not charge.
Note: When operating the Eclipse from a DC power supply, it is recom-
mended that the Pulse Dose Mode be used if prescribed to use a pulse
dose device.
Note: To ensure that the device is utilizing the DC power, check that the
External Power Indicator is illuminated. If a beep is heard, this could indi-
cate a loss of external power. Check if the green Battery Power Verification
LED is on or off. If the battery is removed on DC power, it will ensure no
loss of charge while the unit is running. If the indicator is not illuminated,
the battery is powering the device.
