QuickStart Wiring
WARNING!
Possible explosion hazard. Do not connect or discon-
nect equipment unless power has been switched off and
the area is known to be non-hazardous.
NOTE: Ensure that the electrical wiring to the ECLIPSE Model 700
transmitter is complete and in compliance with all local regula-
tions and codes.
1. Remove the cover of the Model 700 transmitter.
2. Using the grip edge at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock on the LCD
module shown at left, carefully remove the LCD module
from the transmitter. (Note that this module is conveniently
tethered to the device.)
3. Attach a conduit fitting and mount the conduit plug in the
spare opening. Pull power supply wire through the fitting.
4. If present, connect cable shield to an earth ground at the
power supply.
5. Connect an earth ground to the green ground screw (Not
shown in illustration).
6. Connect the positive supply wire to the (+) terminal and the
negative supply wire to the (-) terminal.
7. Align the LCD assembly in the connector slot and re-insert
the LCD assembly; replace and tighten the cover.

QuickStart Configuration
If requested, the ECLIPSE Model 700 transmitter is
shipped fully pre-configured for the application and can be
installed immediately. Otherwise it is shipped configured
with default values from the factory and can be easily
reconfigured in the shop.
The minimum configuration instructions required for using
the QuickStart menu follow. Use the information from the
operating parameters table in Section 1.1.2 to proceed with
the configuration.
The QuickStart menu offers a very simple two screen
overview showing the basic parameters required for typical
“Level Only” operation.
1. Apply power to the transmitter.
The graphic LCD display can be programmed to change
every 2 seconds to show pertinent Measured Values on the
Home Screen. For example: Level, %Output, and Loop
current can all be displayed on a rotating set of screens.
The LCD can also be programmed to always show just one
of the Measured Variables at all times. For example: Level
can be continuously displayed on the screen.
NOTE: A small transition zone (0-300 mm)
(0–12") may exist at the top and
bottom of certain probes.
