"Non Volatile Data is invalid - Please check Battery Voltage"
If on successive power downs of the Eclipse frame the above state is
detected, and the message appears in your logs then it is advisable to
check the health of the CPU card on board battery, which should be
nominally at least 2.8V. The minimum at which the data may remain
intact is around 1.5V but normally the battery should be replaced
before the voltage drops to this level.
CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
Lithium batteries can overheat or explode if they are shorted. When
you handle the CPU card or a loose battery, DO NOT touch any
external electrical conductors to the battery’s terminals or to the
circuits that the terminals are connected to.
Whenever you are servicing the battery, make sure that the jumper on
CON9 is connecting pin 2 (common) to either pin 1 (on) or to pin 2
(off). If the common is left floating, the CPU may behave unpredictably.
For example, the microprocessor may reset itself intermittently.
VERIFYING THE SHIPMENT
When the Eclipse Median system is received, inspect the boxes for
shipping damage. Report any shipping damage to the carrier. The
Eclipse distributor is not responsible for shipping damage.
Check the packing list and verify that every item on the list has been
received. Save all packing materials in the event that any items need
to be returned.
UNPACKING THE SYSTEM
When the Eclipse Median system is received the circuit cards, power
supplies, and rear-connector panels are pre-installed in the matrix
chassis. The user needs to supply:
• A standard 19-inch rack in which to install the matrix.
• A personal computer to run the Eclipse Configuration Software
(ECS). The Eclipse Configuration Software runs on Windows Vista
(with restrictions), Windows 7 (with restrictions), Windows XP
Professional and Windows Server 2003.
• Shielded category-5 cables to connect to panels and interfaces.
