Self Test
The EclipseSX has a self test mode which aids in troubleshooting
the controller. The self mode is accessed by pressing and holding
Page 1 and Page 2 during power up.
Buttons and LEDs are tested by pressing any button. When a
button is pressed, the corresponding LED illuminates indicating
that the button and LED are functioning.
The trackballs and rings are tested by rolling the balls or turning
the rings. The direction and control will be indicated in the left
display.
The encoders are tested by turning the knobs. The direction and
value of each encoder will be indicated on the right display.
Mode Selection
To accommodate a wide variety of applications, the EclipseSX can
emulate the protocol of an EclipseCX or the MCS-Spectrum.
There are two ways to switch the protocol of the EclipseSX:
1. Manually
This methods allows the user to manually set the
operational mode.
• To select EclipseCX mode,
press and hold Page 6 during power on.
• To select MCS-Spectrum mode,
press and hold Page 5 during power on.
2. Automatically
When the EclipseSX receives an EclipseCX message
from the host software application (such as Apple
Color), the unit will switch to EclipseCX mode.
