Operation

Eclipse 3D Imaging Sonar

Document: 0690-SOM-00001, Issue: 01

© Tritech International Ltd.

Factory Defaults

This reverts all system settings to the default factory settings. Use this option if

experiencing unusual behaviour from the Eclipse sonar to be certain that the software

is set up properly.

Note

After resetting to factory defaults it will be necessary to set the

Sonar

again (see Section 4.2, “Sonar Communications”).

Load/Save Settings

Eclipse automatically saves all the system settings when the software is shut down.

These settings are also automatically reloaded when the software starts. The

Load

and

Save

buttons are to load and save the system settings to an XML file. This is

useful to keep if ever the software or operating system requires re-installation.

Note

To use the XML file as a

User Default

file it will have to be saved

C:\EclipseData\Settings\UserDefaults.xml

Units

This allows the units of measurement to be selected. Available options are

Metric

and

Imperial
