DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT

EC2000 Control

The extreme flexibility of the Eclipse II Plus lies in
the state of the art micro controller used in the
EC2000 charger control.
The EC2000 is made up of two main components:
the Control /Regulator Board, and the Keypad/
Display. The Control portion provides the basic
operating features of the charger, such as auto
start/stop, auto equalize, charge cycle review, real
time clock, communications, etc. The Regulator
portion actually controls the level of the chargers DC
output.
The Keypad/Display provides the user interface with
the charger. The durable membrane keypad is
impervious to moisture and mechanical shock. The
backlit 2 line 20 character LCD display constantly
shows the charger's output volts, amps, and amp
hours returned during the charge cycle. The display
also provides the user with plain English messages
concerning charge cycle status.
Four bright LEDs shine through the keypad to keep
the user informed of charge status at a glance, even
from long distances. LEDs notify you that a charge
is in progress, that the battery is 80% charged,
equalize cycle, charge complete, and fault indica-
tion.
