QuickStart Configuration
If requested, the ECLIPSE Model 706 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 before proceeding
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 screen.
The LCD can also be programmed to always show just one
of the Measured Variables at all times. For example: Level
can be the only value displayed on the screen.
2. Remove the lower electronic compartment cover.
